A&D EK-EP Series Intrinsically Safe Compact Balances Description

The A&D Weighing EK-EP Series Intrinsically Safe Compact Balance is available in three models (EK-600EP, EK-3000EP, and EK-6000EP), delivers certified explosion protection through full IECEx and ATEX compliance, enabling precise weighing operations in potentially hazardous and explosive environments where conventional balances cannot operate safely. This compact, lightweight design maintains excellent explosion protection while offering exceptional portability through Duracell battery operation providing approximately 250 hours of continuous use, eliminating the need for power supply connections from safe areas via safety barriers. The series features an easy-to-read LCD display with backlight and 16mm character height for clear visibility in challenging conditions, while the hygienic stainless steel (SUS304) weighing pan offers superior chemical resistance essential for hazardous material handling applications.

Operational versatility is achieved through comprehensive functionality including multiple weighing units spanning standard measurements (g, oz, lb, ozt, ct, mom, dwt, gr, N) plus specialized modes for piece counting, percentage calculations, and specific gravity determinations. The EK-EP series enhances efficiency through intelligent features such as comparator functionality for faster filling, packing, and sorting operations, adjustable response characteristics that optimize performance based on environmental conditions including drafts and vibrations, and automatic power-off functionality to maximize battery life during extended field operations. Practical security features including a wire-locking ring prevent theft in industrial settings, while the combination of intrinsic safety certification and portable design makes the EK-EP series an ideal solution for hazardous area weighing applications across petrochemical, pharmaceutical, and explosive material handling industries. Backed by A&D's confidence with a comprehensive 3-year warranty, this series provides reliable, certified-safe weighing performance in the most demanding explosive environments.
