Dual seal according to
ANSI/ISA 12.27.01
The devices have been designed according to ANSI/ISA 12.27.01 as dual seal devices, allowing the
user to waive the use and save the cost of installing external secondary process seals in the conduit
as required by the process sealing sections of ANSI/NFPA 70 (NEC) and CSA 22.1 (CEC). These
instruments comply with the North-American installation practice and provide a very safe and cost-
saving installation for pressurized applications with hazardous fluids.
Further information can be found in the Safety Instructions (XA) of the relevant devices.
