A New Purge Solution for Large Enclosures: Bebco EPS® 6100 Series

The 6100 system consists of a control unit, enclosure protection vent, low pressure sensor, and optional temperature sensors. The configurable control unit features temperature and pressure compensation, an extra output for control or alarm, two selectable intrinsically safe inputs for various actions, and up to three temperature sensor inputs that can monitor various points within a motor housing. The intrinsically safe user-interface can also be mounted in a separate enclosure near operating personnel for quick access and easy system monitoring.

To meet any application requirement in large enclosures, enclosure protection vents are available with five flow rates to choose from (up to 14,000 l/min). The intrinsically safe low pressure sensor provides an accurate enclosure pressure reading for safe operation in hazardous locations. The pressure sensor, which can measure internal pressure from 0 to 25 mbar, can be remotely located at the motor’s low pressure section for correct, safe motor pressure readings.
