VPX1E4ABRG3A2B Honeywell

Rugged and Safe for Use in Hazardous Areas Honeywell's VPX Series valve position indicator switches are built especially for outdoor use in potentially hazardous atmospheres. The switch enclosures are constructed to withstand the pressure of an internal explosion. Flame paths cool the exploded gases to a point less than the lowest safe operating temperature of the surrounding gas. The VPX Series versions equipped with inductive proximity switches feature an Intrinsically Safe (IS) rating. Regardless of where the equipment or machinery is designed, built, or installed, VPX Series products carry global agency coverage. VPX Series switches have standard rugged, die-cast aluminum housings that are weather-sealed for outdoor use and comply with NEMA 4X requirements for protection against corrosion, in addition to various NEMA enclosure standards. The products' O-ring seals make the enclosure rain-tight, but are outside of required flame paths so explosion-proof requirements are maintained. VPX Series switches are available in multiple colors and angles, visible from all directions. Unless special ordered, all basic switches operate on clockwise and counterclockwise rotation. Features
