Beamex MC6-Ex documenting calibrator and communicator

If users want to take a normal, non-Ex calibrator into a hazardous area, they will need a hot-work permit — this takes time, effort and bureaucracy. A risk analysis will also be needed, as well as additional safety equipment such as gas analysers. Using an Ex certified intrinsically safe calibrator in an Ex area is a safer and easier choice.

The Beamex MC6-Ex is a hazardous area approved high-accuracy documenting calibrator and communicator that offers calibration capabilities for pressure, temperature and various electrical signals. It also contains a field communicator for HART, FOUNDATION Fieldbus and Profibus PA instruments.

The Beamex MC6-Ex is an IEC and ATEX certified calibrator and can be used in any Ex Zone/Division, including Zone 0/Division 1. The certification classification is Ex II 1 G and Ex ia IIC T4 Ga.

The robust, IP65-rated dust and waterproof casing, ergonomic design and ease of use make the MC6-Ex a suitable device for all types of field use. It communicates with Beamex calibration management software, enabling fully automated and paperless calibration and documentation. The MC6-Ex can also be part of the paperless integration to the customer’s own ERP system.

Other features include internal loop supply, up to three internal pressure measurement modules and external modules, large 5.7″ backlit colour display with touchscreen and multilingual user interface, smart field-replaceable battery pack, built-in field communicator, documenting capability and a data logger functionality. Also, communication with pressure and temperature controllers is possible in a safe area.
