Challenges for Industrial Lighting in Explosion-Proof Hazardous Areas
Hazardous area has been categorized to industries with highly flammable gases, dusts or vapours. These zones entail the danger of any fire due to electrical devices, this necessitates explosion protected light to be vital to hazardous places. Choosing appropriate industrial light can be important not to be safe and meet the international standards, but also contribute to the improved visibility, productivity and reliability of the operational activities. Multiple classifications exist according to IEC including Class I, Class II, Class III and Zone 1 and Zone 2, this classification is necessary to establish the degree of protection needed. How to Choose the Perfect Light for Explosion-Proof Hazardous Areas Class I: - Class I category may be stated as the areas in which the flammable gases or vapors are currently found in the environment in the adequate amount that leads to explosion. Some of the industries which falls within Class I category are petrochemical plants or oil refineries...
