7120BEP & 7024BEP Strobe
Super Explosion-Proof Strobe

3200BEP The model 7120BEP family is designed, tested, and certified for use in hazardous locations and hostile environments classified by the NEC as Class I, Div. 1 & 2, Groups C & D, Class II, Div. 1 & 2, Groups E, F, G, and Class III, Div. 1 & 2. They also meet NEMA standards 3, 4, 4X, 7CD, and 9EFG and are marine rated for use in salt water environments. Design features include housing made of die cast high strength copper-free aluminum alloy with a baked powder epoxy finish, stainless steel hardware, oring sealed prestressed glass globe with double pitch acme threads for smooth assembly and ease of maintenance, a flash synchronizing circuit, and an optional guard which need not be removed for relamping.

Synchronizing Specifications

Synchronizing Circuit Connection:
This is a low voltage, low power customer connection which requires one 22ga twisted pair run between each light. Max length between furthest lights 3000 feet. Up to 100 lights of different voltages can be synchronized.

Synchronizing Circuit Features:
Each light contains its own flash rate timing circuit which operates the lamp automatically and a bi-directional synchronizing circuit which overrides the internal timing circuit when connected to another light. When two or more lamps are synchronized together, failure of any lamp will not prevent other lamps from operating. Lights may be operated from different power sources, that is, a 120VAC unit may be synchronized with a 12VDC unit.

NFPA Definitions

Class I, Division 2.
A location (1) in which volatile flammable liquids or flammable gases are handled, processed or used, but in which the liquids, vapors or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in case of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems, or in case of abnormal operation of equipment; or (2) in which ignitable concentrations of gases or vapors are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, and which might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operation of the ventilating equipment; or (3) that is adjacent to a Class I Division 1 location, and to which ignitable concentrations of gases or vapors might occasionally be communicated unless such communication is prevented by adequate positive–pressure ventilation from a source of clean air and effective safeguards against ventilation failure are provided. [See Section 500–4(b) of NFPA 70, National Electrical Code.]

Class II, Division 2.
A location in which (1) combustible dust will not normally be in suspension in the air in quantities sufficient to produce explosive or ignitable mixtures and dust accumulations are normally insufficient to interfere with the normal operation of electrical equipment or other apparatus; or (2) dust may be in suspension in the air as a result of infrequent malfunctioning of handling or processing equipment and dust accumulations resulting therefrom may be ignitable by abnormal operation or failure of electrical equipment or other apparatus. [See Section 500–5 (b) of NFPA 70, National Electrical Code.]
