Yokogawa ATEX Type n Approval
The DY080-KN2 is an ATEX Type n approval option for Yokogawa's DY Series vortex flowmeters. This certification ensures that the instrument is compliant with ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU for use in potentially explosive atmospheres, specifically in Zone 2 (Category 3G) environments where flammable gases or vapors may be present occasionally. The Type n protection method (nA, nR, nL) is designed to minimize the risk of ignition under normal operation. This option is intended for customers who require their DY Series flowmeters to meet European safety standards for hazardous locations, providing assurance of safe operation in industrial applications such as oil & gas, chemical, and petrochemical plants.
