Pepperl+Fuchs has introduced the Bebco EPS purge and pressurization system designed specifically for use with large enclosures in Zone 1 hazardous areas. The 6100 series system can purge an enclosure over 450 cubic feet (12.2 cubic meters), making it the largest purging system available from the company.
The Bebco EPS series is suitable for applications in the chemical/petrochemical and oil and gas industries. It is a fully automatic system that does not require an operator to initiate purging or pressurization.
It offers optional temperature sensors that can be mounted around the enclosure for alarm notification or cooling. Additionally, there is automatic pressure compensation for excess leakage from the enclosure.
The system consists of a control unit, vent, low pressure sensor, and optional temperature sensors.
The control unit allows users to configure the system for size of motor, temperature switch points, pressure switch points for leakage compensation and shutoff pressure, 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 the enclosure.
The intrinsically safe user-interface can also be mounted in a separate enclosure near an operator for access and system monitoring.
