Eaton MEDC SM87 LU1/LU3 are ATEX beacons specifically designed for use in potentially explosive atmospheres and harsh environmental conditions in ATEX & IECEx Zone 1 and Zone 2 hazardous areas.
Eaton MEDC SM87 LU1/LU3 are ATEX beacons specifically designed for use in potentially explosive atmospheres and harsh environmental conditions in ATEX & IECEx Zone 1 and Zone 2 hazardous areas.
The marine grade alloy or stainless steel enclosures of the ATEX beacons are suitable for use offshore or onshore, where lightweight combined with corrosion resistance and strength is required.
Stainless steel, one of the most durable materials available on the market, is both hard wearing and corrosion resistant, increasing the life of products in harsh environments and therefore reducing maintenance costs.
Contact our team for customer service, competitive quotations and availability from stock for the MEDC range of sounders, including MEDC SM87 LU1/LU3, for safe use in hazardous areas with explosive atmospheres.
The MEDC SM87 hazardous area beacon is available in a choice of variants.
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.
