Application
The EPV-7500 vent works with a 7500 series control unit and
a manual or automatic manifold to complete a certified purge
and pressurization system for enclosures. The EPV-7500 vent
is intended for use only with the 7500 series purge and
pressurization system.
Vents are a required component for all pressurized enclosure
systems. The EPV-7500 functions as a pressure relief device,
allowing the purge gas to exit the enclosure, and it includes a
spark arrestor. The vent also provides a seal when the
enclosure is pressurized and operating.
The 7500 series purge and pressurization system has NEC,
CEC, ATEX, and IECEx third-party certifications for Class I,
II/Div. 2 Type Z and Zone 2/22 Ex pzc.
