Midi Torch
Zones: 0, 1, 2, 20, 21 and 22
Product Overview
The Midi Torch is a compact high power LED pocket torch delivering excellent illumination, robustness and reliability in the most extreme conditions and is CE marked to the ATEX Directive and IECEx certified for safe use in Zones 0,1 and 2 potentially explosive gas and Zones 20, 21 and 22 dust atmospheres.
With a smooth, easy grip, ergonomic enclosure and a high output LED light source, giving up to 210 lumens of light output and bespoke optics delivering a narrow high intensity beam and, at the same time, a lower output wide angle fringe light, the Midi Torch is ideal for inspection and maintenance work in conditions of darkness or reduced visibility.
The single-handed push button switch with rubberised switch cover and raised surface enable easy switching, even with gloved hands, and is shrouded to avoid inadvertent operation.
The strong, durable torch body enclosure has excellent chemical resistant properties and a proven impact resistance, even at sub zero temperatures.
The rubber armoured lens ring gives enhanced grip and shock protection with a shatterproof polycarbonate lens providing excellent resistance to impact damage.
It is sealed dust tight and protected from water immersion with an IP67 rated enclosure.
The straight body configuration has an anti-roll foot allowing it to be placed securely on its base or side.
The Midi Torch has a battery duration of up to 7 hours, after which it is recommended that the user replaces the batteries to avoid the risk of battery leakage, the high power LED light source is ‘fitted for life’.
The torch’s internal construction is a one-piece assembly with LED, circuit, switch and battery cassette for easy replacement of the 4 AA alkaline primary cells.
Details of the specific approved AA cells for use in T4 gas atmospheres can be found in the instruction manual; all other AA alkaline primary cell types allowable for use in maximum T3 rated Zone 0 areas.
