Fluke 568EX Intrinsic Safe IR Thermometer, Atex Approval

Description

The Fluke 568 Ex Intrinsically Safe Infrared Thermometer is certified by major
rating bodies for use in Class I Div. 1 and Div. 2 or Zone 1 and 2 hazardous
environments anywhere in the world. Whether you work in petroleum, chemical,
oil and gas, or pharmaceutical environments, the 568 Ex allows you to carry
the most trusted name in test tools into most Ex-rated areas around the globe.
The simple, three-button on-screen menu interface is quick to use and makes even
complex measurements easy. It takes just a few pushes of a button to adjust emissivity,
record data, or turn on and off alarms. The 50:1 distance-to-spot ratio allows you
to measure smaller objects from further away. And it also is compatible with K-type
probes for contact measurements. Either way, you can count on the rugged,
ergonomic design to stand up to tough conditions.
