Tomar GNExB2X10 Xenon Strobe Beacon-Intrinsically Safe
Tomar Electronics presents the Tomar GNExB2X10 Xenon Strobe Beacon-Intrinsically Safe, an IECEx and ATEX approved explosion-proof 10 Joule Xenon beacon. Designed for hazardous locations, the robust IP66 corrosion-proof GRP enclosure, and extended temperature range make the GNExB2X10 suitable for Zone 1, 2, 21 & 22 signaling applications.
With an impressive over 479cd effective output, the GNExB2X10 produces a high-intensity Xenon strobe flash essential for efficient signaling over extended distances and in high ambient light conditions. The field-replaceable color filter, optically enhanced and constructed from UV stable PC, optimizes the strobe output.
Featuring a GRP enclosure with a threaded flame path, triple cable entries, and a spacious termination area, the GNExB2X10 significantly reduces installation time. This beacon stands as a reliable solution for demanding hazardous environments, meeting stringent safety standards while providing effective and visible signaling.
Features:
- Robust, Corrosion-Proof GRP Enclosure: Durable construction using glass-reinforced polyester for resilience in harsh environments.
- Ingress Protection IP66: Ensures protection against dust and powerful water jets, making it suitable for challenging conditions.
- Automatic Synchronization on Multi-Beacon Systems: Facilitates seamless integration and synchronization in setups with multiple beacons.
- Choice of Three Flash Rates: Offers flexibility with flash rates of 1Hz, 1.5Hz, and double flash to suit specific signaling requirements.
- User Replaceable Xenon Tube: Mechanically secured against shock and vibration, allowing for easy replacement.
- Glass Lens & Stainless Steel Guard: Enhances durability and protection for the beacon.
- UV Stable PC Field Replaceable Lens Color Filter: Optimizes strobe output and ensures long-term stability.
- Stainless Steel Fixings: Increases resistance to corrosion and environmental wear.
- Triple Cable Entries: Facilitates flexible cable routing for easy installation.
- Duplicate Cable Terminations: Provides redundancy for both input and output in daisy-chain installations, streamlining the setup process.
