The model YZ102 purge unit from Best Purging Systems is available in universal, vertical, and horizontal mounting positions.

The YZ102 from Best Purging Systems Corp. (La Marque, TX) is designed to protect electrical equipment in class I hazardous areas. When connected to a supply of protective gas and used with a PV-2 spark-arresting vent, the YZ102 expedites purging by supplying, regulating, and monitoring gas supply to a protective enclosure.

Type Z applications reduce the hazardous area rating inside the enclosure from division 2/zone 2 to unclassified. This allows general purpose equipment to operate in division 2/zone 2 areas.

Type Y applications reduce the hazardous area rating inside the enclosure from division 1/zone 1 to division 2/zone 2. This allows division 2/zone 2 equipment to operate in division 1 zone 1 hazardous areas.

Features include:

  • 15-cubic-foot enclosure volume
  • Universal, vertical, and horizontal mounting options
  • Operating range from -20 degrees to 120 degrees (F)
  • Air or inert gas

Unit supply pressure from 80 psi to 125 psi
