E2S Warning Signals D1xB2 xenon and LED explosion-proof beacons

The latest additions to the D1x range of beacons from E2S Warning Signals, the D1xB2 xenon and LED explosion-proof beacons, are designed for installation in hazardous areas. They are approved by leading certification bodies and include fault diagnostics, supporting SIL2 requirements by enabling the control system to interrogate the devices’ operational status.

The marine-grade LM6 aluminium enclosures D1x, BEx and D2x, the 316L stainless steel STEx range and the GRP GNEx provide a variety of mechanical protection, corrosion resistance and weight to suit different environmental requirements and applications.

The polycarbonate, UV-stable lenses are available in amber, blue, clear, green, magenta, red and yellow. While enhancing the light output, the lens filters are also field-replaceable, enabling the reassignment of beacon function to be a simple and quick process.

A particular D1x version, the D1xB2XH2, is claimed to be the brightest explosion-proof xenon strobe light/beacon available for public mode fire alarm, ADA compliant, hearing-impaired applications. The unit is UL/cUL approved for Class I Div 1, Class II Div 2 and Class I Zone 1, and suitable for both gas and dust environments.
