Pharmaceutical Industry Installations
Safety Technology Experience
STARTING POINT
Our Customer, a leading European Pharmaceutical group with multiple outlets, had a requirement to reduce its carbon footprint and provide localized but remote-controlled lighting levels from a single control point. Top priority within this investment plan was to reduce carbon emissions and save on general energy consumption while safely operating within a hazardous area environment, by using the ATEX and IECex certified Intelligent Pyros lighting fixtures a number of prerequisites were met as shown below:
Technological safety solution with a robust, high-quality LED light fitting designed and manufactured in Europe, with IECEX and ATEX certifications for operations in Zones 21 and 22, II 2 GD Ex db IIB+H2 T6 Gb Ex tb IIIC T85ºC Db, IP66 protection level for operations in temperatures ranging from –20º C to +50º C. Its tubular construction prevents the accumulation of dust, potentially explosive, on the luminaires which is of upmost importance in this type of facilities, facilitating also its cleaning and minimizing risks
CHALLENGE
Developing a smart, easy-to-use ATEX wireless lighting solution for both new and existing (retrofit) facilities without increasing or changing existing wiring.
