‘Ex’ CERTIFIED

Every XL5 viscometer is available as an Intrinsically Safe (IS) version suitable for Div1 Class 1 Group A in North America in compliance with:

ATEX  Directive 2014/34/EU
IECEx

Certified to: 

Ex ia IIC T1…T6 Ga
Ex ia IIIC T200135°C Da (dust certification)

IS certification permits a simpler installation than flameproof. The Ex ‘ia’ certificate allows transducers to be operated even in the most hazardous Zone 0 environments.

And because all signals between sensor and safe area are digital, connection between the two is simple, allowing long cable runs and only a single safety barrier.

Since the viscometers were installed they have proved to be 100% reliable, with no fluctuation on the measurement of our liquids. We would definitely recommend them to other companies considering buying them.

We design for the worst case. We go beyond basic compliance to make sure our equipment still gives outstanding performance in the most hostile industrial environments.

The performance has been excellent. We have not had any issues with the viscometers. The operators have come to trust them and use them to optimise the process.

Our products shape modern viscosity measurement. We are always stretching the limits of what is possible.

Every component is considered in meticulous detail. We are obsessed with detail. Success at this level needs that obsession.

With this viscometer we can now get the data we need to tune our mathematical models and correlations and increase the accuracy of our viscosity predictions.

We question everything and copy nobody. Every product is unique.
It is flattering to see others mimic some of what we do, but innovation is in Hydramotion’s DNA and you can’t copy that.

We chose Hydramotion because they could offer us an intrinsically safe instrument that’s easy to use and low maintenance, not only that, the Hydramotion viscometer was very competitive pricewise against other machines.
