Load Cells, Scales and Junction Boxes meet Local & International Safety Standards
SAN DIEGO, CA, April 4, 2018 – Hardy Process Solutions (www.hardysolutions.com) now offers certified weighing components for use in classified Hazardous Areas. Hardy’s scales, load cells and junction boxes meet common national and local safety standards with appropriate levels of certified protection for different application environments such as Class I / Division 1 and Class II / Division 1.* Intrinsic safety (IS) is a protection technique for safe operation of electrical equipment in hazardous areas by limiting electrical and thermal energy available for ignition to safe levels. Hazardous (classified) locations might exist in any manufacturing location with vapors, dust or flyings, but are common in large bakeries (flour), plastics manufacturing plants (vapors or dust), chemical plants (vapors), paint‐finishing locations (vapors), and grain silos (dust or flyings), to name just a few.
