PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT FEATURE Explosion-protected LED safety torches and chargers
Diversified industrial manufacturer Eaton has announced that its Crouse-Hinds division has extended its range of explosion-protected portable safety lamps with an LED torch series that is certified for use in ATEX Zone 0 hazardous areas. The associated induction charger units for the torch are certified for Zone 1 hazardous areas, providing users with a maintenance-free, multi-functional lighting system for use in most hazardous environments. The TX40 and TX 20 induction-charged
hand lamps can be used safely in Zone 0, 1, and 2 hazardous environments with the associated CX40 and CX20 induction chargers mounted close by in a Zone 1 area. This means the system is ideal for inspection, maintenance and repair work that needs to be carried out in potentially explosive Zone 0 atmospheres found in industrial chemicals, petrochemicals and pharmaceutical plants. Both TX/CX40 and TX/CX20 torch and
charger are monitored continuously for any faults via automatic function testing which are indicated by an LED. This guarantees maximum availability of the lighting system. The intelligent charging method for the torch enables steady,
optimum battery charging and long service life of the rechargeable battery. “Despite its low power consumption
the high efficiency, impact resistant LED lighting technology of the TX40 and TX20 provides a very high luminous intensity,“ says Klaus Weyer, product line manager lighting. “Combined with a lens and reflector the 3W high efficiency LED produces a bright, uniform luminous flux of 200 lumen at the TX 40 and 114 lumen at the TX 20 which ensures optimum illumination of the work area.” The CX40 and CX20 charger units use
an inductive coupling system. When the lamps are plugged into the charger, they are recharged by induction charging. In addition to providing a safer system this

contact-free method ensures that any corrosion of the contacts due to environmental influences are eliminated. This means the charger can be safely mounted in Zone 1 while the torch can be operated in Zone 0. If the mains power supply to the charger should fail for any reason an emergency lighting function switches on the plugged in torch automatically regardless of the position of the switch. In order to ensure that the torch is always in its place, an optional seal point can be provided for securing the torch in the charger.
