Exloc are also pleased to introduce the innovative new “Thin Client” Zone 2 lightweight terminal with ATEX, IECEx and Aex certification.
The Zone 2 Thin Client complements the existing range of iSiS-Ex products, specializing in ‘mission critical’ PCs, terminals and monitors for use in hazardous areas, particularly in the oil and gas sectors and offers the following features:
- Certified for use in Class 1 Division 2, Class 1 Zone 2, ATEX & IECEx Zone 2 areas*
- 1000 nit monitor luminosity.
- Dual Core Atom 1.86GHz CPU.
- Ethernet, Wi-Fi or Fibre Optic communications.
- Choice of operating voltages; PSU built in.
- Fully operational within -40°C to +60°C.
- Internal temperature and humidity sensors; available for remote telemetry.
- Weighs only 12kg and only 90mm (3.5”) deep.
- VESA, yoke or panel mounting.
- IP66 (NEMA 4 and NEMA 4X).
Exloc Instruments are also bridging a gap in the field of safe automation applications with network components that have been developed specifically for Ex and Hazardous areas.
When using Ethernet-enabled end devices in an Ex area, safe and reliable network technology is vital and the compact network switches and media converters we offer from PRIMATION Systemtechnik make it possible to lay both copper and fibre-optic cables in ATEX Zone 1 areas.
Transmission distances of up to 550m (multimode) and 2km (single mode) enable remote plant sections to connect to a central control system. The network devices have integrated, intrinsically safe optical interfaces in the form of FO transceivers.
Utilising a bandwidth of 1 Gbit, there is sufficient capacity to also transfer signals from high resolution cameras or full HD terminals. The devices are designed for use in temperature ranges from -40 °C to +80 °C and are extremely reliable, with an MTBF time of over 2,000,000 hours.
An aluminium version is available for Gas Zone 1 and Dust Zone 21, and a stainless steel version is available for use in Zone Mining M2.
There are some distinct advantages to using fibre-optic cables in the Ex areas including long distance
data transmission and minimum noise susceptibility from electromagnetic fields.
However, transmission systems themselves also conceal risks danger can often arise due to excessive output on optical ports on standard switches.
To prevent this, Primation uses special, certified transceiver modules which are connected upstream of the standard switches, thus limiting the energy.
