- PORTABLE AND COMPLETELY SELF CONTAINED
ERL’s APM-1 is very portable, weighing only 35 lbs. A retractable handle makes the battery powered, self-contained panel, easy to carry. A voltmeter lets you monitor battery condition when the switch is in the “On” position. - SELF RELIABLE OPERATION
The APM-1 housing is of NEMA Type 4, weather proof construction, rated for outdoor use. All electrical components are UL, FM and CSA approved. The output of the APM-1 is intrinsically safe for connection in Class I, II and III, Division 1 and 2, Groups A-G Hazardous Locations. Because the panel is not explosion proof, the panel must be operated outside of the hazardous area on deck per 46 CFR 111.105-31. More specifically, when operated on the open deck, the panel must be at least 10 feet away from a vapor source. When operated over a cargo compartment the panel must be located at least 8 feet over the deck per 46 CFR 111.105-31 K2.
- EASY TO OPERATE
Complete operating instructions are printed on the front of the panel. An 18 foot long cable with a Hubbell 516C-1W receptacle, allows for easy connection to the vessel liquid level sensor system with the panel positioned outside of the hazardous area. Brilliant indicator lights and loud 105 DBB at one meter audible alarms warn the tankerman of a high level/overfill condition over the entire deck.
