Everything here revolves around cellular and communication technologies, as well as safety, directives/guidelines and standards in the area of explosion protection. We pass on our extensive expert knowledge and experience to our partners and customers in regular training courses and seminars. Take the opportunity to get an insight into the subject of explosion safety, global standards, certificates, directives/guidelines and protection classes. You can find out everything you need to know about Ex and cellular technology as well as generally relevant technology in our glossary.
The aim of explosion protection, as a part of technical safety, is to avoid explosions and prevent damage to people or property.
In our i.safe MOBILE glossary, you will find detailed explanations of the most important terms from the areas of explosion protection, mobile communication and cellular technology.
Potentially explosive areas are divided into zones according to the frequency and duration of the occurrence of hazardous, explosive atmospheres.
Electrical equipment for use in potentially explosive atmospheres must meet various national and international directives, standards and regulations.
The use of electrical devices in potentially explosive atmospheres in different countries and continents is regulated by respective country-specific certificates.
The protection class indicates the suitability of electrical equipment against external influences such as protection against foreign bodies or water.
The basic principle of the ignition protection categories serves to minimize the risk of the simultaneous presence of an ignition source and a potentially explosive atmosphere.
