MEDC dSLB20 Hazardous Area Beacons
MEDC DSLB20 | ATEX Beacons
MEDC dSLB20 LED are ATEX beacons can be used for warning, indicating and signalling purposes in areas with Explosive Atmospheres in ATEX & IECEx Zone 1 and Zone 2 hazardous areas.
The MEDC dSLB20 LED hazardous area beacon has 4 modes (blinking, flashing, continuous or rotating) – this signal lamp is designed for continuous operation. They can be ordered from Thorne & Derrick with MEDC call points for integration into fire detection systems in the explosive atmosphere industries.
The dSLB20 LED ATEX beacon is activated by switching on the power supply and is available with various rated voltages. The sturdy housing is suitable for both indoor and outdoor installation.
The Ex-signal light consists of a light grade aluminium alloy, flame-proof housing, and a lens manufactured from borosilicate glass.
Contact Thorne & Derrick for customer service, competitive quotations and availability from stock for the MEDC range of sounders, including MEDC dSLB20, for safe use in hazardous areas with explosive atmospheres.
