Casella USA are pleased to announce an update to the release of the
intrinsically safe (IS) version of the dBadge
noise dosimeter. The existing IS model has now been
granted two new North American safety Certificates of Compliance by the
Factory Mutual Approval organization
of Norwood, Massachusetts.
The Certificates of Compliance were dated October
1st, 2007 and cover the following approvals;
for the US certificate,
Class 3600 1998
Class 3610 2007
Class 3810 2005
for the Canadian certificate,
CSA-C22.2 No 157 1992
CSA C22-2 No 1010.1 2004
The amazing new CEL-350 has been granted
approval in the category "Class 1, Division 1, Groups A, B, C and D
Hazardous (Classified) Locations with a temperature classification of T4".
The new FM approvals, certificate numbers 3029871 and 3029871C, for the USA
and Canada respectively, add to the previous ATEX and SABS approvals that
have already been
granted for the amazing new CEL-350IS dBadge
dosimeter.
The newly FM approved
dosimeter is also called the CEL-350IS and is already
available for deliveries in North America since the beginning of October 2007.
For customers who need the ATEX approval for their dosimeters
then the dBadge has the approval
granted by Sira
by the certificate number 07ATEX2032X.
All the positive features of the current dBadge are still available such as
the full 32 hour run time, the complete data logging of both Q5 and Q3
parameters and the 1 minute time history recordings.
There is a new 3 station charger unit for both master and slave
units but otherwise all of the current accessories are compatible with both
versions of the CEL-350 dBadge. The existing non-IS dBadge will continue to
be available alongside the new IS model for those applications where IS
approval is not required.
The new dBadge IS model will be of particular interest to those users who need
to carry out noise dosimetry in hazardous locations such as petro-chemical
plants, printing factories, etc.
