BExCS110-05 Explosion Proof Alarm Horn & Xenon Strobe
The flameproof BExCS110-05 combination alarm horn sounders and Xenon strobe beacons are suitable for Zone 1, 2, 21 & 22. Approved to IECEx, ATEX, Ex EAC and INMETRO standards.
Sound level ouputs are up to 117dB(A) at 1 metre with a choice of 32 alarm tones and 3 remotely selectable stages. Alarm horn & Xenon beacon may be connected from a single power supply for simultaneous operation or from separate supplies for independent operation.
The BEx range features enclosures manufactured from corrosion proof, marine grade copper free LM6 aluminium with a chromate and powder coat finish. All models have two M20 cable entries, large termination areas containing in & out terminals and an ingress protection of IP66/67.
Features:
• Marine grade, corrosion proof, LM6 aluminium enclosure
• Automatic synchronisation on multi-beacon & sounder systems.
• Beacons can be set to ‘flip-flop’ alternating mode with other units on multi-beacon systems.
• Xenon tubes mechanically secured against shock & vibration
• Very large termination area.
• Dual M20 cable entries - adaptors available.
• Stopping plug included.
• Ratchet adjustable stainless steel ‘U’ bracket.
• Reverse polarity diode fitted.
• IP66/67 ingress protection.
• 120 candela effective light intensity.
• UV stable PC, field replaceable, colour lens filters.
• ‘Stage Programmable’ version available with 45 tones & 4 remotely selectable stages.
