Pepperl+Fuchs HMIs Certified for Zone 2 environments

March 1, 2012 - Pepperl+Fuchs VisuNet IND SlimLine Operator Workstations have received Zone 2 certification for use in hazardous environments. VisuNet SlimLine operator workstations also provide HMI visualization in Class I, Div. 2 hazardous locations. Having globally certified units simplifies the specification of monitors and HMIs for OEM equipment and process plant expansions. VisuNet IND operator workstations are available in a thin but rugged NEMA 4/4x IP 64 Stainless or painted steel housing, and as a full PC, remote monitor or KVM monitor solution. They are well suited for use in any number of oil and gas, chemical, food and beverage, and flavor and fragrance applications. The VisuNet SlimLine enclosure design features continuously welded seams that are ground smooth, and mitigates heat without the need for venting or cooling fans. Available options include mounting hardware, as well as chemical and microbial-resistant keyboards. The harsh ambient conditions in processing plants can be extremely problematic, and the equipment in continuous production facilities must meet the demands of constant use. Visualization systems can be subject to moisture and extreme temperature shifts, as well as solvents chemicals and pressure cleaning. VisuNet Industrial operator workstations solve this problem by enabling users to place only the most essential components in the field, and using data lines to establish connections to the desktop PC equipment in a safe area.
