PEECO explosion proof flow switch

PEECO Explosion Proof Flow Switches

PEECO explosion proof flow switches are certified for use in hazardous (classified) locations where flammable gases, vapors, or combustible dusts may be present. The same proven PEECO flow-actuated mechanism is housed in a NEMA 7/9 explosion proof enclosure that contains any internal ignition and prevents propagation to the surrounding atmosphere.

Rated Class I, Division 1, Group D — built for hazardous environments where flammable gases or vapors demand the highest level of protection. Each switch is custom-engineered for the application — fluid, pipe size, pressure, temperature, and electrical requirements are specified at time of order.
