Ex p combination cabinets

The increasing demand of complex automation functions for processes in the field of chemistry, pharmacy, oil and gas calls for flexible, safe and maintenance-friendly solutions for measuring, controlling, regulating and visualization tasks, particularly in potentially explosive areas. Complete control systems and switchgear, motors, actuators and pumps, open-plan displays, industrial monitors incl. keyboards and printers must be made ready for applications in hazardous areas.

For many applications the Ex p pressurized enclosure is one of the most flexible Ex solutions. Thanks to this type of protection, non-explosion proof devices can be operated in potentially explosive areas of zone 1 and 2. The underlying idea is to prevent an explosive atmosphere from entering a sealed protective enclosure by generating a permanent overpressure against the surrounding atmosphere. With its pressurized Ex p combination cabinet, BARTEC offers a completely new Ex solution for the control and automation of devices, machines and systems in zone 1 and 2.

Depending on the application, non-explosion-proof control units and switchgear as well as complete automation systems are mounted into the Ex p combination cabinet. On the basis of the modular APEX 2003 overpressure control, which has been certified in accordance with ATEX, modern, operationable Ex solutions are realized - including the required certification in accordance with 94/9/EC.
