Transmitter receives new hazard approvals

A Michell Instruments product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Feb 6, 2008

The Easidew TX IS is certified by FM Approvals for use in hazardous areas to IS/I/1/ABCD/T4 when used with a galvanic isolator for signal power supply connections.

Michell Instruments has received confirmation of its accreditation by FM Approvals for the intrinsically safe version of the Easidew transmitter.

In addition to its ATEX certification, this allows the Easidew TX IS to be used in hazardous area applications within the USA.

The Easidew TX IS is certified by FM Approvals for use in hazardous areas to IS/I/1/ABCD/T4 when used with a galvanic isolator for signal power supply connections.

The new Transmitter can be safely used in virtually all industrial gas measurement applications.

The certification lists five different galvanic isolators.

This allows the customer to choose the most suitable isolator to provide the correct hazardous/safe area interconnection.

The Easidew TX IS can now be connected in a two-wire loop-powered or three-wire configuration.

The transmitter also features an HDPE filter, designed to show contamination for service ease.

It offers less than 10um porosity and is impermeable to liquids.

The key to the transmitter's performance is its sensor technology.

Michell Instruments' ceramic moisture sensor is coupled with microprocessor-based measurement circuitry to produce a fully calibrated and interchangeable sensor transmitter.

All calibration data is stored within the transmitter's memory and so calibration exchange or service can be affected in seconds, even by untrained personnel.

The Easidew TX IS is simply disconnected, removed from its sampling block and replaced by a new, fully calibrated unit.

It is economical to purchase, install and simple to operate.

Michell also organises a sensor calibration exchange programme so that the process is never out of operation.

The Easidew TX IS is the suitable solution for measurement of dew point or trace moisture.
