Fluke handheld ATEX-certified process calibrator
Fluke has introduced a new loop calibrator, the first of a new line of test tools developed specifically for use in hazardous environments such as petrochemical plants, oil platforms and refineries
User safety is one of the primary drivers for the development of all Fluke test tools.
Fluke was one of the first manufacturers of ATEX-compliant hand-held tools, and now offers a broad range of intrinsically safe process calibrators and a version of the world's most popular industrial multi-meter.
They can be used to install, maintain and troubleshoot equipment, as well as maintain and calibrate sensors, transmitters and control loops.
These products meet the needs of technicians in petrochemical plants, oil platforms, refineries, governmental bodies, commercial organisations and any location subject to the risk of explosion.
The ATEX rules are mandatory on electrical and electronic equipment for use in environments subject to explosion hazard sold in the EU since July 2003 - all products sold for use in explosive atmospheres must have ATEX certification and carry the distinctive Ex symbol.
Fluke Ex test tools can be purchased from Fluke authorised distributors.

Editor's note: Any suggestions as to why 'governmental bodies' should be subject to a high risk of explosion would be gratefully received: I dare not suggest more!.
