MEDC XB11 are ATEX Beacons that have been designed for use in potentially Explosive Atmospheres and harsh environmental conditions in ATEX & IECEx Zone 1 and Zone 2 hazardous areas.
MEDC XB11 are ATEX Beacons that have been designed for use in potentially Explosive Atmospheres and harsh environmental conditions in ATEX & IECEx Zone 1 and Zone 2 hazardous areas.
The beacon housing of the ATEX beacon is manufactured completely from a UV stable, glass reinforced polyester. Stainless steel screws and mounting bracket are incorporated ensuring a totally corrosion free product.
The high output hazardous area Xenon beacon with explosion protection concept Ex d can be painted to customer specification and supplied with identification labels.
Contact our team for customer service, competitive quotations and availability from stock for the MEDC range of sounders, including MEDC XB11, for safe use in hazardous areas with explosive atmospheres.
The MEDC XB11 hazardous area beacon is available in a choice of variants with mounting options for weatherproof and 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.
*Model dependent.
