The EK-AEP Series by A&D Weighing offers a powerful solution for precision weighing in explosive or hazardous environments. Engineered with intrinsic safety and ATEX/FM approvals, this compact balance can safely operate in Class I, Division 1, Groups C and D zones where flammable vapors or gases are present.
Whether you're working in chemical plants, oil refineries, or pharmaceutical manufacturing, the EK-AEP balances offer the reliability and safety you need without compromising performance. With fast stabilization under 2 seconds and operating modes such as counting, percentage weighing, and specific gravity, it’s well-equipped for a range of applications.
