What displays are used in Gas & Oil Environments?

Displays for gas and oil applications must meet stringent requirements for safety, durability, and visibility in hazardous environments. Common types include ruggedized industrial monitors, explosion-proof displays, ATEX-certified displays, sunlight-readable displays, touchscreens with protective layers, and customized solutions. These displays are essential for providing clear visual information and human-machine interaction in oil refineries, drilling rigs, and other hazardous locations while ensuring compliance with industry standards and regulations.

Key Features

  • Rugged Construction: Built to withstand harsh environmental conditions, including dust, moisture, vibration, and extreme temperatures.

  • Explosion-Proof Design: Prevents ignition of flammable gases or vapors within the display enclosure, ensuring safety in hazardous locations.

  • ATEX Certification: Compliance with ATEX standards for equipment used in potentially explosive atmospheres, essential for European markets and other regions where ATEX regulations apply.

  • Sunlight Readability: High brightness levels and anti-reflective coatings ensure clear visibility in outdoor environments with direct sunlight.

  • Touchscreen Functionality: Enables human-machine interaction for controlling and monitoring processes, often with ruggedized touchscreens and protective overlays.

  • Customization Options: Tailored solutions to meet specific size, mounting, and functionality requirements of oil and gas applications.

  • Compatibility with Hazardous Area Classifications: Suitable for use in Class I Div 2, Class I Zone 2 areas, with Ethernet, WiFi, and a choice of operating voltages for seamless integration into ATEX environments.

  • Compliance with Standards: Stringent testing to ensure compliance with industry standards such as IEC 60079-0, IEC 60079-11, and IEC 60079-15, ensuring safety and reliability.
