Fengtu FT-FB02: An Intrinsically Safe Explosion Proof Weather Station for Hazardous Environments

The Explosion-Proof Weather Station is a specialized meteorological monitoring device designed for high-risk environments such as petroleum, chemical, mining, oil depots, and other areas where flammable and explosive gases or dust may be present. These locations have extremely high safety requirements, as ordinary electronic equipment may generate electrical sparks or high temperatures during operation, posing ignition risks. Through intrinsically safe explosion-proof circuits and high-strength explosion-proof enclosures, explosion-proof weather stations effectively prevent internal electrical sparks and high temperatures from propagating outward, ensuring safe and stable operation in hazardous environments. This provides accurate meteorological data support for safety production and emergency management.

The Fengtu® Explosion Proof Weather Station FT-FB02 is an integrated meteorological monitoring solution developed to meet such demands.

Introduction to Fengtu® Explosion-Proof Weather Station FT-FB02

The FT-FB02 explosion-proof weather station integrates data acquisition, storage, communication, and display functions, designed to meet the requirements of various scenarios such as chemical plants, oil depots, tunnels, and mines.

Core Technical Features:

The weather station adopts a "five-proof" design philosophy, namely waterproof, explosion-proof, dustproof, shockproof, and corrosion-resistant. The enclosure is made of corrosion-resistant and oxidation-resistant ASA or stainless steel, enabling it to withstand harsh environments. The sensors utilize ultrasonic principles to measure wind speed and direction. The probe features a top-covered hidden design, effectively avoiding interference from rain and snow accumulation and natural wind obstruction. The device integrates a combined sensor for five elements: wind speed, wind direction, air temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure.

Main Technical Parameters:

Wind Speed: Measuring range 0–60 m/s, accuracy ±0.1 m/s

Wind Direction: Measuring range 0–360°, accuracy ±1°

Air Temperature: Measuring range -40°C to 80°C, accuracy ±0.3°C

Air Humidity: Measuring range 0–100% RH, accuracy ±3% RH

Atmospheric Pressure: Measuring range 300–1100 hPa, accuracy ±0.25%

Data Storage: The standalone version can store no less than 500,000 data entries

System Functions and Certifications:

The device connects via RS232 wired communication to an explosion-proof screen for real-time data display and supports the standard Modbus protocol, facilitating integration with backend systems.

The FT-FB02 has obtained the high-level explosion-proof certificate Ex ia IIC T4 Ga and complies with Chinese national explosion-proof standards such as GB3836.1-2010 and GB3836.4-2010, ensuring safe use in explosive atmospheres.
