The YZ102 from Best Purging Systems Corp. (La Marque, TX) is designed to protect electrical equipment in class I hazardous areas. When connected to a supply of protective gas and used with a PV-2 spark-arresting vent, the YZ102 expedites purging by supplying, regulating, and monitoring gas supply to a protective enclosure.
Type Z applications reduce the hazardous area rating inside the enclosure from division 2/zone 2 to unclassified. This allows general purpose equipment to operate in division 2/zone 2 areas.
Type Y applications reduce the hazardous area rating inside the enclosure from division 1/zone 1 to division 2/zone 2. This allows division 2/zone 2 equipment to operate in division 1 zone 1 hazardous areas.
Features include:
- 15-cubic-foot enclosure volume
- Universal, vertical, and horizontal mounting options
- Operating range from -20 degrees to 120 degrees (F)
- Air or inert gas
Unit supply pressure from 80 psi to 125 psi
