How to Select the Right Ex Equipment
Before selecting an explosion-proof product, consider the following factors:
1. Hazardous Area Zone
Determine whether the installation is classified as Zone 1, Zone 2, Zone 21 or Zone 22.
2. Required Certification
Check whether ATEX, IECEx or another certification is required for the project.
3. Gas or Dust Classification
The equipment must be suitable for the specific hazardous substance and classification present at the site.
4. Temperature Class
Check the required temperature classification and ensure that the selected equipment is appropriate for the operating conditions.
5. Environmental Conditions
Consider factors such as dust, moisture, corrosion, temperature and mechanical exposure when selecting the equipment.
6. Technical Documentation
Always review the relevant datasheets, certificates and technical specifications before finalizing an Ex product.
