Product Overview:
The Gatto Ex-0 is an ATEX and IECEx Zone 0 certified robot, designed as the ultimate excavator for efficient material handling and extraction. It is ideal for projects in confined spaces and Zone 0 environments, such as large industrial tanks, pipelines, and tunnels where large volumes of material need to be moved and removed quickly and safely.
Certifications:
ATEX Marking: II 1G Ex h IIB T4 Ga
IECEx Marking: Ex h IIB T4 Ga
Key Features:
- Certified for ATEX and IECEx Zone 0 for the removal of the most compact materials.
- Maximum traction and stability, allowing smooth operation even on slippery surfaces or those covered with dense sediment.
- Fully no-man entry, remotely controlled solution for operating inside storage tanks in refineries, terminals, and industrial plants.
- Wide range of accessories, ATEX and IECEx Zone 0 certified, and multiple configuration possibilities.
- Camera and LED system ATEX and IECEx certified for Zone 0.
- No Tank Blanketing process required to add inert gases inside a storage tank.
- Removal of large volumes of material.
Advantages:
- Lower cleaning costs.
- High productivity and reduced downtime.
- No need for people in Zone 0.
- Safe and efficient operations in the most critical environments.
Applications:
Mini-Excavator robots are designed starting from the specific characteristics of the working site. The ATEX and IECEx range consists of a series of robots designed specifically for heavy-duty industrial maintenance and cleaning work. The modularity of the system allows great flexibility in terms of control unit and power unit.
Equipment:
The Gatto Ex-0 is a complete system consisting of a robot, a Zone 1 control unit (Control Unit), and a hydraulic power unit (Power Unit), which can be combined together according to customer requirements. Tailor-made configurations are available according to work area needs.
