Explosion-proof equipment

Explosion-proof equipment is built so it does not become an ignition source where flammable gas, vapour or dust is present, such as fuel depots, chemical plants and paint shops. Selection follows the hazardous-area zone (ATEX/IECEx), gas group and temperature class.

  • Explosion-proof junction and terminal boxes
  • Explosion-proof sounders and beacons
  • Instruments and controls for hazardous areas
  • Check zone, gas group, temperature class and IP rating

Brands listed here: Bartec Feam, FHF. CAD advises by hazardous zone and provides datasheets, CO/CQ and technical support.

What is an Ex zone?

A classification of areas by how likely an explosive atmosphere is; a lower zone number means higher risk.

Can ordinary equipment be used in Ex areas?

No, hazardous areas require equipment with a suitable Ex certification.
