explosion-proof light fitting for 2-pin fluorescent tubes with - certification for an ambient temperature of +60°C - special explosion-proof electronic control gear with "end-of-life" switching-off system" - and interference suppression up to 300 MHz

Official confirmed in the EC Test Certificates PTB 97 ATEX 2223-2225 comprising supplements 1-4

The Adolf Schuch company again furnishes proof of its innovation capability and of its hight competence in the extremly ambitious field of explosion-protected light fittings.

The certification for an ambient temperature of +60°C, the electronic control gear with its "end-of-life switching-off system" and the widened Interference suppression up to 300 MHz stand for an ipressive series of innovations with which the Adolf Schuch company has enormously influenced the development of explosion protected light fittings for 2-pin fluorescent by applying electronic control gears in explosive atmospheres.

Convince yourself of the unique advantages of series e152.. under wich we supply a high-quality light fitting of an utmost safety leliability.

• Very high mechanical stability thanks to a robust housing made from glass fibre reinforced polyester (impact resistance: 20Nm instead of the required 7Nm) as well as a highly shockproof polycarbonate diffuser of a uniform wall thickness of 2.5 mm.
• Excellent light distribution and simultaneous glare limitation my means of the polycarbonate diffuser with its light technically optimized internal prisms.
• Solid and long-life central locking system made from galvanized steel and high-grade stainless steel hinges.
• Steel rail with mounted electrical components for weight carrying in case of direct ceiling monting system or suspended mounting. (The polyester housing is not exposed to any direct load at all).
• High-grade stainless steel hinges for hinging the polycarbonate diffuser when installing the light fitting or in case of any maintenance work.
• Highly resistant EPDM gasket of dimensional stability that stands for a safe tightness to water and dust during its whole life.
• Hingeable and detachable reflector made from glass fibre reinforced polyester with stable suspension system.
• Quick and simple replacement of all electrical components thanks to screw fastening system (no rivets).
• Isolating switch with obligatory optical signal indicator (red = voltage "on", green = power supply "not on") for safe switching off all poles when the light fitting is opened.
• High-grade explosion-proof electronic control gear (ECG) with excellent quality features:

• fail-safe thanks to its "end-of-life switching-off system" acc. to the latest IEC standards DCV/IEC 61347-2-3 i.e. at the end of its life a fluorescent tube is safely switched off by the ECG, thus, avoiding any critical operating condition e.g. in case an electrode wearing out. An installation of any fuse is therefore not necessary nor is a regular lamp replacement required.
• safe application at an a.t. of +60°C (20W + 40W versions) - worldwide first certification.
• Long-life due to excellent temperature values of operation (special quartz sand encapsulation of the ECG inside an aluminium housing.
• Widened interference suppression up to 300MHz.
• Easy to use thanks to a double channel lamp monitoring system i.e. a failing fluorescent tube is safely switched off whereas the second tube continues operating without break.
• Wide range of application and flexibility at most different ambient conditions from -20°C to +60°C (20W and 40W versions).
• Fluorescent tubes of a 26 mm and a 38 mm Ø can be inserted. The same refers to the AURA longlife fluorescent tube of type LUMINETTE-LL.
• Certification in Zone 1 (gas) and Zone 21 (dust).
• Shockproof and certified by the "Bundesamt für Zivilschutz" for application in civil defence buildings (RK 1.6/16).
• - specified by the DEUTSCHE BAHN AG.
• Looping the mains cable at one end of the housing (saving the quite expensive through wiring system).
• Reliable for the future due to the EC Type-Test ATEX Certificate.
