BLS9200 Bilge / Flood Level Switches Now Certified for Hazardous Areas

We are excited to announce that our BLS9200 bilge / flood level switch has been assessed and certified as Intrinsically Safe. This means the switch can now be installed in hazardous areas, significantly expanding its application possibilities.

The BLS9200 has been certified to Ex ia IIC T5 Ga, meeting the primary safety standards of ATEX, IECEx, and UKCA. This is particularly beneficial for naval vessels, where areas near munitions are often classified as hazardous. With this certification, there are now no restrictions on where you can install the BLS9200, providing greater flexibility for your bilge and flood detection needs.

In addition, we can also reveal that our APT level transmitters have received enhanced approvals. The Intrinsic Safety certification for our APT500 and APT1000 level transmitters has now been updated to include UKCA approval, alongside the existing ATEX and IECEx approvals.

Furthermore, the DNV type approval for the APT500 and 1000 has been renewed under the mutual recognition standard, which means this Type Approval is now accepted by all members of the International Association of Classification Societies (IACS).

These enhanced certifications demonstrate our commitment to providing safe and reliable level solutions for a wider range of applications.
