Outdoor instrument protection specialist Intertec has requalified a broad range of its explosion-proof heaters and controllers, and formally validated their suitability for use in extremely cold environments. This development is likely to be of particular interest to designers of instrumentation systems requiring safety certification for hazardous areas, such as onshore and offshore oil and gas exploration/recovery projects in the Arctic polar region....
Intertec's fire-resistant cabinets and shelters provide up to 90 minutes protection time for field-based control electronics, valves and actuators in the emergency shutdown and fire suppression systems of onshore or offshore refineries, chemical plants, and platforms. ...
Enclosure manufacturer Intertec is making it easy to deploy advanced laboratory-grade instrumentation in the field with the launch of an explosion proof protection option. A new inert gas pressurisation system allows its protective cabinets or enclosures to house laboratory-style equipment that is non explosion protected - such as analyzers and sensors - in IEC-Ex and ATEX Zone 1, 21, 2 or 22 hazardous areas. ...
Intertec has launched an explosion-proof smart programmable controller for precision temperature regulation of process instrumentation and analyzer enclosures in hazardous environments. Suitable for use with any explosion-proof electric heater from Intertec's extensive range of compatible heaters, the new generation Smart Controller 2.0 brings exceptional flexibility to thermal management. ...
Martin Hess of Intertec provides an overview of key points to consider when specifying or building heating equipment for process instrumentation. Hess explains why it is advisable to consider and specify the enclosure, the so-called 'hot box’, and the heating equipment as an inter-related system....
Intertec announces a compact convection electric heater that has been designed for temperature maintenance or control in harsh environments. The heater is rated to IP68. It has no exposed contacts, so it is highly reliable even in corrosive atmospheres. Available with power outputs from 25 to 500 W, the solution is smaller and easier to install than the common option of trace heating cabling. ...
