Proven performance in the most challenging environments

Hazardgard meets National Electric Code Article 500 requirements and is UL-listed for Class 1, Division 2, Groups A, B, C and D hazardous locations.

For more than three decades, global industry and high-tech leaders have trusted Hazardgard to provide commercial-grade cooling under the harshest conditions. You’ll find durable, reliable Hazardgard room air conditioners on oil rigs and military bases, in manufacturing companies and processing plants – anywhere hazardous materials are used. Hazardgard is specifically designed to cool spaces where volatile, flammable liquids and gases are used, within enclosed systems or containers, or under extreme temperatures.

Anti-corrosive Diamonblue Technology comes standard Diamonblue Technology is an advanced corrosion protection treatment that protects the outdoor coil and extends unit life, especially in harsh coastal environments.

A. Unit depth is 27 3/8 inches.

B. Depth of junction box to louvers is 6 inches.

C. Maximum wall depth of the thru-the-wall finished hole is 6 inches

Durable, Reliable and Safe

Robust engineering, commercial-grade components and extensive field testing show that Hazardgard provides the durability and safety required in hazardous locations. See the complete features list for details on what makes Hazardgard the best choice in tough operating environments.
