Certified for hazards
September 1st 2010 Crowcon's Vortex range of multichannel
gas and fire detection
control panels has been extended to
include an ATEX certified Exd
Flameproof version, the Vortex FP,
which can be used in Zone 1 and
Zone 2 hazardous areas.
Capable of monitoring up to 12
gas detectors, the Vortex FP is also
compatible with smoke/heat and
flame detectors. Up to three of its
input channels can be used for fire
detection. Each channel has one fault
and three alarm levels which can be
combined to trigger up to 32 output
relays, allowing connection to
external alarms and safety devices
such as fans or valves. Intrinsically
safe (IS) safety barriers can also be
incorporated for use with IS gas or
fire detectors. It can be customised
to meet site requirements. More articles from Crowcon Detection Instruments Ltd: |
