Perform Safe Field Calibration in Explosive Environments

| By Chemical Engineering

This intrinsically safe (IS) calibrator is designed to be incapable of causing ignition in a surrounding environment, which may have flammable gases, mists, vapors or combustible dust present. The new ATEX and IECEx certified MC2-IS Multifunction Calibrator (photo) is designed for field calibration and testing in explosive environments. It has calibration capabilities for pressure, temperature and electrical signals, and it connects to almost 20 of the firm’s IS external pressure modules. The MC2-IS is a lightweight, portable calibrator with a large graphical display, multilingual interface and a complete numerical keyboard. — Beamex Oy Ab, Pietarsaari, Finland
