Loop-powered meters with ATEX (IS) technology

These instrinsically safe and nonincendive, loop-powered 1/8 DIN flow rate/totalizers can be installed virtually anywhere to provide convenient and informative displays of flow rate and total from a 4-20 mA signal. One of the most convenient features of these instruments is their ability to display both flow rate and total at the same time. For instance, flow rate is typically displayed on the 5-digit alphanumeric top line and flow total or grand total is typically displayed on the 8-digit alphanumeric bottom line.

The fact that these meters are loop-powered means that there is no need to run additional, costly power lines; the meter gets all of the power it needs from the 4-20 mA loop.

It doesn’t matter if it’s indoors or outdoors, in bright sunlight or a dimly lit plant, or in an area that is wet, dirty, hot, or cold, the Loop Leader can go just about anywhere.

All versions of this instrument are CE marked. The hazardous area versions of this instrument are UL and C-UL Listed as intrinsically safe and nonincendive and ATEX and IECEx Certified for Intrinsic Safety in Hazardous Areas (Gas Atmosphere). This version is also UL and C-UL Listed under the General Safety Standard UL 61010-1.

One of the most useful aspects of the hazardous area approvals is that these instruments are approved by UL as nonincendive so they can be installed in Division 2 areas with no additional protective devices needed.
