Remote station is at home in hazardous areas
Designed and certified to conform to PTB 00 ATEX 1003, the Remote Station 18.1in enables the user to use any process control system within Ex areas.
Handheld scanner acquires hazardous data
As innovative as it is rugged, the wireless radio handheld BCS 370 DustEx scanner from Bartec delivers sophisticated, ergonomic and operational features for today's industrial applications.
The BAT 300 comes with a 5.5in display and the BAT 800 with a 12in display, both featuring a screen brightness of up to 400cd/m2.
The modular interface technology enables uninterrupted communication for different bus concepts into the Ex areas Zones 1 and 21.
The direct, serial communication from either a superior control station or a PLC can be accessed just as easily.
When it comes to speed, the new BAT300/800 terminals remain true to their range by allowing instant access by means of a direct link to the Ex areas and without the need for additional intrinsically safe separator cards, costs are clearly reduced as intrinsically safe branch circuits are no longer necessary.
There is no doubt that having process control visualisation on-site, supplied via bright and flexible operator terminals, results in more efficient process management.
Therefore Bartec has adapted the system to accept the internationally recognised BMS Graf pro software tool which allows operator-prompted programming of all BAT terminals.
Any of Bartec's range of handheld scanners can be connected directly to either terminal.
