You need to meet

tough maintenance

and calibration tasks

in potentially explo-

sive and hazardous

areas. That means

you need reliable,

accurate and intrinsi-

cally safe tools.

The complete line of

Fluke tools includes

the NEW 87V Ex

True-RMS Multimeter

and the NEW

Fluke 68IS Infrared

Thermometer to

compliment the line

of Fluke intrinsically

safe field calibrators.

Read on to find out

more about why

intrinsic safety is

important, how Fluke

Intrinsically Safe tools

can be used in your

work and whether

you need intrinsically

safe tools in your job.

Making sense of the product rating systemsEach approved intrinsically safe device is rated to ATEX and either NEC or Factory Mutual (FM) Standards. The corresponding rating system allows you to understand which zones, type of protection, gas groups and tem-perature classes the instrument is approved for.

“Intrinsically Safe” or I.S. is a protection method employed in potentially explosive atmo-spheres. Certified I.S. tools are designed to prevent the release of sufficient energy to cause ignition of flammable mate-rial. I.S. standards apply to all equipment that can create one or more of a range of defined potential explosion sources:

• Electrical sparks

• Electrical arcs

• Flames

• Hot surfaces

• Static electricity

• Electromagnetic radiation

• Chemical reactions

• Mechanical impact

• Mechanical friction

• Compression ignition

• Acoustic energy

• Ionizing radiation

Industries that use or should use I.S. tools include:

• Petro-chemical

• Oil platforms and refineries

• Pharmaceutical

• Pipelines

• Any environment where explosive gases or vapors could be present
