MEDC XB4 are ATEX beacons that have a high output of 21 Joule, specifically designed for use in potentially explosive atmospheres and harsh environmental conditions in ATEX & IECEx Zone 1 and Zone 2 hazardous areas.
The high output hazardous area Xenon beacon, with explosion protection concept Ex d, can be painted to customers specification and supplied with identification labels.
The MEDC XB4 is available with optional Exe terminal chamber.
Contact our team for customer service, competitive quotations and availability from stock for the MEDC range of sounders, including MEDC XB4, for safe use in hazardous areas with explosive atmospheres.
The MEDC XB4 hazardous area beacon is available in a choice of variants such as stainless steel and alloy options for ordinary locations.
The MEDC range of sounders and beacons from the Crouse Hinds series of Signalling & Alarms – a comprehensive range of Explosion Proof call points are also available with ATEX & IECEx certification and explosion protection to both Ex d (flameproof) and Ex ia (Intrinsically Safe) applications.
