Beka associates has extended the ATEX intrinsic safety certification for their field mounting instruments to include Group II, Category 1D dust approval.
Beka associates has extended the ATEX intrinsic safety certification for their field mounting instruments to include Group II, Category 1D dust approval.
The range includes loop powered 4-20mA digital indicators, rate totalisers, counters, timers, tachometers, clocks, batch controllers, serial text displays and fieldbus displays.
All have a robust IP66 GRP enclosure with a separate terminal compartment and include accessories such as backlights and alarm outputs.
This extended ATEX approval allows the instruments to be used in both explosive gas atmospheres and in the presence of combustible dusts in Zones 20, 21 and 22.
The instruments have a certified maximum surface temperature of +80C at ambient temperatures between -20 and +60C allowing them to be used with almost any industrial dust.
For installations outside Europe, the Beka BA304D and BA324D field mounting loop powered 4-20mA indicators and the BA484DF fieldbus display also have international IECEx gas and dust certification, plus FM intrinsic safety and nonincendive approvals allowing these instruments to be installed in almost any area where flammable gases or combustible dusts may be present.
