Flameproof Local Control Units
Reliable switching and signaling in explosion hazardous areas
Each Local Control Unit by Pepperl+Fuchs comes with a solid housing
With flameproof local control units from Pepperl+Fuchs you are as close to your process as possible. Although today’s production plants are highly automated and DCS controlled, you still need local control and monitoring.
The flameproof devices are absolute specialists when it comes to the requirements of switching and monitoring in harsh industrial environments. All local control units from Pepperl+Fuchs feature certifications for the explosion hazardous areas Zone 1/21 (Ex d IIC for gas atmospheres and Ex tb IIIC for dust environments).
Local control stations with solid housings
For use in rugged industrial areas you expect the housing of your local control unit to be as robust, resilient, and durable as possible. The foundation of our product range is formed by solid and compact flameproof enclosures. Whether they are made of aluminium alloy or cast iron – each one of them is finished with a high-quality paint that withstands the harshest environments.
In addition to durability, the housing design of our local control units focuses on:
- Space-efficiency
- Quick installation
- Easy connection of wiring
