LEDACATEX

The flashing lights from the CWB-ATEX series are explosion-protected equipment and serve as visual alarms in potentially explosive workplaces in Zones 1, 2, 21 and 22 housing made of aluminium, therefore usable in all chemical and petrochemical plants as well as offshore plants high protection system and stable mechanical construction allow use under the toughest operating conditions various mounting brackets and a protective cage are available as accessories At Pfannenberg we have very high demands on the safety and quality of the products we sell. Therefore, we would like to draw your attention to a product safety advisory regarding the signaling device type CWB-ATEX 230V AC. The reason for this product safety advisory is a complaint from the field that conductive liquid came in a product of the type CWB-ATEX (230 V AC), which was installed in the outdoor area of a plant. As a result, the surface temperature rose above the permissible level for operation in potentially explosive areas without the upstream circuit breaker having tripped. We would therefore like to expressly point out that, as a result of moisture ingress, the products of the type CWB-ATEX 230V AC may overheat beyond the permissible level during operation. What is the danger if conductive liquid gets into the signaling device? If the product is operated in an explosive atmosphere, there is a risk of an explosion, which can seriously injure the operator and uninvolved third parties. However, there is currently no known case in which persons were injured!
