MEDC XB15 5/10/15 Joule Explosion Proof Xenon Beacon Range

Beacons, strobes & indicators

Eaton's Crouse-Hinds series MEDC XB15 range of 5, 10 and 15 Joule Xenon explosion proof beacons is suitable for use in potentially explosive gas and dust atmospheres. Suitable for marine and both onshore and offshore environments in the oil, gas and petrochemical industries.

The high intensity beacon housing is manufactured completely from a UV-stable, glass reinforced polyester (GRP) - lightweight and corrosion free.

The model XB15 contains a supervisory diode and four wire lead connections for alarm applications.

In addition to the standard worldwide certificates, EN54-23 and SIL1 are both now available. As well as the XB15 being certified from -55°C to + 70°C , the XB15 has been designed to consistently energise at -55°C.

This unit is available in a high number of configurations to suit your specification. Please download the datasheet for customization options.
