E2S, has extended its capabilities with the development of intrinsically safe and explosion proof manual call points, certified to both ATEX and IECEx standards. The IS-CP4 intrinsically safe units are approved for use in Zones 0, 1 and 2 environments and the BExCP3 Ex e d explosion proof versions for Zones 1 and 2. Both types are available with either break glass or push button operation. The devices are manufactured from corrosion proof, copper free, marine grade LM6 alloy and are sealed to IP66, enabling them to be used in both offshore and onshore installations.

A comprehensive range of standard accessories and options can be specified; they can be fitted with a stainless steel lift flap and series and EOL resistors in a range of different values can be fitted as required. The units can be fitted with stainless tag and duty labels and, normally finished in red powder coat finish, special colours can be specified to enable rapid visual identification of special functions.

The introduction of this new family complements the well-established BEx range of explosion proof sounders, beacons and loudspeakers and the IS-mini modular sounder and beacon family.
