Full System Certification
Maintaining a safe area within a Hazardous environment by the method of positive air pressure above atmosphere (purging) of a
cabinet, probably offers the greatest flexibility for installing instrumentation in a Hazardous area of any type of protection method
available. This flexibility allows such diverse instrumentation as solid state monitors, controllers and even computers including the screen to be mounted local to the package.

Why consider this option?
Because it confirms the installation complies with the very latest standards and not those in place a few years ago
The CENELEC Members Certificate confirms acceptance where insurance is sought
Amot's innovative approach to the design concepts allow us to keep overall costs low
A major advantage of purged systems, apart from the extended range of equipment that can be protected, is that for the most part, it is
good quality well proven standard industrial equipment which offers, in the event of failure, low cost replacement items.
Ambient temperaure control is often an issue. Amot can provide different types of control - from chillers to full air conditioning in hazardous areas.

Typically the most common form of system designed installation used in the oil/gas industry today. Usually formed by the selection and
installation of equipment by the system integrator whose knowledge has been acquired over many years experience. In Amot Controls case in excess
of 35 years, with an understanding of the standards probably unequalled in a systems design company.

The component certified system must be designed and installed to the same high degree of excellence as the fully certified system, except it
does not have the added safety and security of an overall single system certificate.

Pneumatic Control
This is a serious alternative for the client that has worries about electrical control within a
Hazardous area. Offering fit and forget reliability for remote places and the peace of mind that on-site operators can change seals etc. without
specialist knowledge or equipment.
Often combined with electrical interface offering sophisticated local control with connection to remote SCADA or DCS.
These systems often utilise Amot's own logic components and other proven technology to monitor and control all types of equipment
including Automatic start/stop, dual fuel control, protection monitoring and shutdown facilities.
