KEMP, Texas, June 25, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Larson Electronics LLC, leader in industrial lighting and equipment, released a pair of single phase transformers with explosion proof enclosures for use in hazardous locations. These indoor/outdoor transformers are 0.5kVA and 7.55kVA rated and provide operators with protection against critical equipment failures and increased reliability.

The ETX-600V-7.5KVA-500VA-110V-4X0.75 from Larson Electronics is a Pair of Transformers with an Explosion Proof Enclosure for use in hazardous areas. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications, the ETX-600V-7.5KVA-500VA-110V-4X0.75 provides increased reliablity and protection against critical equipment failures. The first transformer in the ETX-600V-7.5KVA-500VA-110V-4X0.75 explosion proof transformer set is a 50/60Hz single phase unit with a primary voltage of 600V The second transformer in the ETX-600V-7.5KVA-500VA-110V-4X0.75 explosion proof transformer set is a 60Hz single phase unit with a primary voltage of 600V The explosion proof enclosure is made of cast aluminum, is equipped with stainless steel hinge and bolts, and includes a watertight gasket for a NEMA 4X protection rating.

The ETX-600V-7.5KVA-500VA-110V-4X0.75 from Larson Electronics is a pair of single-phase explosion proof transformers with a 0.5KVA rating and a 7.55KVA rating. The 0.5kVA transformer is a 50/60Hz unit with a primary voltage of 600V and a secondary voltage of 110V. This unit has 180 °C insulation with an 80 °C temperature rise. The second explosion proof transformer is a 60Hz 7.55kVA unit. This transformer also has a primary voltage of 600V and a secondary voltage of 120/240V, with a 180 °C insulation with a 135 °C temperature rise.

Both transformers are enclosed in a Class I Divisions 1 & 2 Groups B, C and D, Class I Zones 1 & 2 Groups IIB + H_² and IIA, Class II Divisions 1 & 2 Groups E, F and G and Class III Divisions 1 & 2 rated enclosure. This enclosure is also ATEX/IEC Ex certified.

The ETX-600V-7.5KVA-500VA-110V-4X0.75 transformer pair provides reliability, efficiency, critical equipment failure protection. The housing is constructed of cast aluminum with winding formed from high quality precision cut magnetic copper wire for improved performance and features a watertight gasket and specially coated cores to prevent the ingress of moisture. This explosion proof unit is equipped with four 3/4" NPT hubs are factory tapped to allow conduit entry into the enclosure, and is floor or wall mount compatible.

“This pair of explosion proof transformers are environmentally friendly and provide operators with powerful energy, without the high costs,” said Rob Bresnahan, CEO of Larson Electronics LLC. “The winding material improves performance, close tolerances used during manufacturing eliminate burrs, and both units have low heat emissions which cut the costs of cooling.”
