EPACO® by Fike represents the most advanced safety technology available in today's explosion protection market. EPACO is pre-configured to recognize danger signs and make important decisions about when to activate explosion isolation and/or explosion suppression systems, effectively preventing an explosion from damaging your equipment and facility. With EPACO in place, your employees don't have to search your facility for signs of a problem. EPACO not only tells you where the trouble is, it also tells you what the problem is and when it happened. Fike explosion protection puts you in complete control.
EPACO's exclusive bus technology communicates system status, activates system protection, and allows for remote access. Fike's exclusive EPWorks™ software reports system status, pressure readings, and pre/post system activation history in easily understandable graphs, giving you more information at your fingertips.
Though sophisticated, its modular design, small size, global compatibility and pre-configured set-ups make EPACO both flexible and easy-to-use. Made up of five basic modules, EPACO is easy to install, fully compatible and easily programmable. Choose just one or a combination of the EPACO modules, to create precisely the explosion protection system that's right for your application.
- Annunciator Module (AM): command/communication central with complete history retrieval function
- Relay Card (RC8): relays for process equipment interface, allowing the system to discriminate between critical and non-critical trouble conditions
- Power Supply Unit (PSU): uninterruptible power supply for added safety and complete reliability
- Ceramic Detector: detection that is virtually invulnerable to damage and false activation
- Explosion Protection Controller (EPC): offers multiple hazard protection, and activation pressure and status/event history
