Introducing a new and unique modular design concept, the MTL Gecma Work Station is a new generation of remote operating terminals for Ex Zone 1/2/21/22.
The new modular workstation range addresses the need for visualisation in hazardous areas. But that is not all; packed full of features and state-of-the-art technology, users can also optimise their productivity and reduce plant costs while increasing plant safety.
The units have been designed to address the environmental challenges of obtaining visualisation within harsh and hazardous areas. Building upon decades of experience and expertise and the significantly large installed base of its predecessor, the MTL Gecma Work Station range includes Remote Terminal (RT), Thin Client (TC) and a personal computer (PC) to meet a wide variety of applications. Suitable for the strictest of hygienic conditions and aggressive production environments, its slim, flexible modular construction also includes individually certified modules to allow safe maintenance even in hazardous areas.
