Turck has introduced a stainless steel version of its junction boxes, designed to provide a robust connectivity solution for corrosive offshore platforms.
With FM approval for Class 1, Division 2, Groups A, B, C and D hazardous locations and rated IP67, the junction box gives good performance in areas that present harsh environmental conditions such as dust, water and salt spray.
The junction box has a cast 316 stainless steel housing to resist corrosion in salt spray environments, including chloride corrosion, to ensure continuous connectivity operation. Designed for use on offshore drilling platforms and other ocean-bound equipment, the junction box can be mounted directly on the machine in hazardous environments, with no enclosure required.
To ensure the device meets industry specifications, the junction box receptacles are also stainless steel and rated IP67 as long as the ports are covered or connected.
The junction boxes are available in 6- and 8-port models and can be used with M12 and7/8″ connector sizes. They can also be used with Turck minifast connectors. Stainless steel junction boxes are designed to house existing circuit boards and receptacle housings. The junction box simplifies the connection of multiple field devices for Profibus-PA and Foundation Fieldbus networks.
