VKK2R-8 Ex - ATEX 95 Junction Box

HBM's VKK2R-8Ex EEx junction box complies with ATEX 95 for flameproof enclosures. The junction box is suitable for load cells used in potentially explosive atmospheres such as in truck scales in the petrochemical industry. Using the junction box allows customary standard weighing electronics to be connected outside the hazardous area without needing intermediates such as safety barriers.

Product Description

Up to eight analog strain gauge load cells complying with EMC requirements can be easily connected to the new junction box. The VKK2R-8Ex EEx junction box also features EMC-compliant metric screwed cable glands to ensure full EMC compliance as per EN45501 thanks to HBM’s shielding design.
The junction box features an internal resistor network to integrate HBM’s special, highly precise, and reliable corner load balancing feature into a scale. This means that results can be obtained in three simple steps:

  • load scale corners,
  • read correction value from diagram,
  • activate balancing resistor.

This VKK2R-8Ex EEx junction box has been marked II 2 G/D and II3 for use in potentially explosive atmospheres and is supplied with the requisite PTB 05 ATEX 2014 type examination certificate issued by PTB (German Metrology Institute). The junction box can be used for protection in Zones 1, 2, 21, 22.
