Enclosures: Hazardous vs. Non-Hazardous

In many industries the need for monitoring gas flow does not involve hazardous gases or potentially dangerous operating conditions. These applications can include many water and wastewater treatment applications, the HVAC industry, the general use of compressed air, and many other applications using air, nitrogen, argon, etc. In these cases, an explosion-proof electronics enclosure is not required, and may be considered a needless expense. To meet this challenge, Eldridge Products, Inc. now offers the Master-Touch™ Family of microprocessor-based thermal gas mass flowmeters… in a nonhazardous enclosure.



In many other industries the need for monitoring gas flow involves hazardous gases, potentially dangerous operating environments or simply a desire for a rugged, industrial-strength configuration. These applications include many common manufacturing processes, natural gas metering, compressed air auditing, etc. The Master-Touch MP Series is now approved for use in hazardous area locations: Class I Division 1 Groups B, C and D; Class II E, F and G; Class III; Type 4X, 7; Ex d IIB + H2; AEx d IIB + H2, IP66; EEx d IIB + H2, IP66; T2 (consult factory for T3 or T4).
