Meeting the Demands
Where combustible vapors are present, electrical devices need to be isolated to prevent explosions. Cambridge Viscosity has developed a new ATEX approved, explosion-proof electronics enclosure for its viscometers that enables our electronics to be in hazardous locations. The viscometer enclosure was created to meet the demands of challenging process environments in many industries.
Continued Success
Cambridge’s explosion-proof viscometer sensors have long been used in hazardous environments and with this latest development, users have immediate control of their sensors, even in hazardous settings. Cambridge’s VISCOpro 2000 ATEX Gc utilizes a purged cabinet for electronic installations in hazardous environments to house Cambridge’s famous VISCOpro 2000 electronics. Cambridge’s entire viscometer system can be installed in difficult Zone 2 environments where local display, interface and controls are necessary. Improving safety and control of complex chemical processes is important to Cambridge and with our new ATEX approved viscometer electronics, challenging work environments became safer.
