COEX™ FEWS Hazardous-Area Wash System FEWS3-A


Synectics Hazardous-Area Wash System

  • Electro-polished 316L stainless steel
  • 10 liter removable stainless steel reservoir can provide up to 500 wash cycles between refills
  • Enclosed system ensures high performance in all climates
  • Suitable for antifreeze and detergent additives

Manufactured from the highest-grade electro-polished 316L stainless steel for maximum corrosion resistance, the COEX™ FEWS3-A wash system is designed for optimal performance and long service life in the harshest of environmental conditions.

For operation in potentially explosive atmospheres, the FEWS3-A is the perfect choice to maintain optimum image clarity and performance for C3000 hazardous-area camera
stations.

Comprised of a 10 liter pressurised reservoir and electronically operated solenoid value, the unit can be installed up to 20 meters below the camera head, allowing servicing and
remote operation of the reservoir at ground / deck level.

When installed alongside C3000 hazardous-area camera stations, the water jet is ejected from a spray nozzle mounted on the window wiper arm to ensure uniform window
cleaning.

Various ATEX/IECEx solenoid valve options are available to match the desired power requirements, extending the flexibility for the wash unit to be used with third-party
camera stations.
