GAI-Tronics’ Corporation designs Intrinsically-Safe Telephones for use in chemical plants, refineries, grain
elevators and any other environment where volatile gases and dust are a major consideration. Housed in durable glass reinforced polyester for indoor or outdoor applications, GAI-Tronics Intrinsically-Safe Telephones are the safest and most economical communication solution in hazardous environments.
GAI-Tronics Intrinsically-Safe Telephones include safety barriers, reducing the energy levels and eliminating the
possibility of a spark or explosion occurring. The barrier is placed in an indoor or outdoor, non-hazardous location up to one mile from the telephone. In contrast to explosion proof telephones, which are designed to contain an explosion, our Intrinsically-Safe Telephones limit input power to prevent an explosion from occurring. Further, explosion proof telephones require expensive, sealed conduit, and their large, bulky design makes installation and maintenance more difficult. In most
applications, Intrinsically-Safe Telephones use standard telephone cable and do not require conduit.
GAI-Tronics’ Intrinsically-Safe Telephones can be purchased as an individual barrier configuration for smaller installations, or as a rack barrier configuration for larger installations, or where space is a
constraint. The individual barrier configuration provides an Indoor or Outdoor Telephone with a wallmountable Isolation Barrier Unit which houses the safety barrier and power supply. The rack barrier configuration provides the Isolation Barrier Unit’s electronics configured for installation in a customer provided, centrally located
cabinet. GAI-Tronics Intrinsically Safe Telephones include standard items such as a proximity detecting hook-switch with no moving parts and a sealed keypad to keep out dust, dirt and moisture. The sealed electronic ringer also prevents contaminants from entering the housing. Other standard features include a noise-canceling microphone
and volume control handset.
Consists of:
Telephone (262-001)
Isolation Barrier (263-000)
