WAROM BPC-A Series Safety Barrier for Explosion-Proof Keyboard & Mouse
Overview
The WAROM BPC-A Series is a high-performance intrinsic safety (IS) barrier designed for explosion-proof keyboard and mouse systems in hazardous areas. It ensures safe signal transmission between standard computer peripherals (non-explosion-proof) and equipment operating in Zone 1/2 (gas) or Zone 21/22 (dust) environments, preventing ignition risks from electrical sparks or thermal effects.
Key Features
Explosion Protection
Complies with ATEX/IECEx standards for hazardous areas.
Galvanic isolation between safe (non-hazardous) and hazardous zones.
Limits energy to intrinsically safe levels.
Wide Compatibility
Supports USB/PS2 keyboards and mice (signal conversion if needed).
Plug-and-play design for easy integration.
Robust Construction
DIN-rail or wall-mounted (models: BPC-A-D / BPC-A-W).
High-grade materials for EMC resistance and industrial durability.
Model Variations
BPC-A1: Standard version (basic signal transmission).
BPC-A2: Enhanced EMI shielding & surge protection.
BPC-AS: Customized (e.g., high-temperature/chemical resistance).
Certifications
ATEX: II 3G Ex nA IIC T4 Gc / IECEx: Ex nA IIC T4 Gc.
CE, RoHS compliant.
Applications
Oil & gas control panels.
Chemical plant HMI stations.
Mining and pharmaceutical industries.
