Under normal operating conditions, the power supplies are incapable of causing ignition of a specified gas or vapour mixture due to arching or thermal means.
Hazardous locations are defined in Article 500 of the NEC (National Electrical Code).
The "classes" define the presence of different explosive atmospheres such as flammable gases, vapours and liquids (Class I), combustible dusts (Class II), or ignitable fibres and floating particles (Class III).
"Divisions" define the extent of time such an explosive atmosphere exist; frequently or under normal operating condition (Division 1) or abnormal or accident conditions (Division 2).
This certification makes the Puls MiniLine family the most versatile standard industrial power supply on the market.
Ten different models from 25 to 100W with output voltages between 5 and 28V DC are available from stock.
