The most common practice for the use of Ex d barrier glands is in flameproof installations, where they are used to prevent flame from any explosion that may occur inside the equipment from travelling down through the cable. However, for process-connected equipment like instrumentation, where there is only a single process seal, like an O-ring… Continue reading Correct Practices of Using Barrier Glands in Hazardous Areas
Training in Hazardous Area Classification (HAC) and Design typically covers identifying, assessing, and mitigating the risks associated with potentially explosive atmospheres in industrial settings.
As the world strives for sustainable solutions, the emergence of Stand-Alone Power Systems (SPS) has become a crucial player in the energy sector. Electricians are leading this shift towards decentralised power generation, moving away from traditional distribution networks.
Engineers play a pivotal role in ensuring these areas are functional and safe for workers and the surrounding environment. This blog explores the critical role of engineers in Hazardous Area Design and Planning.
Potentially dangerous materials require meticulous planning and design to ensure the safety of both personnel and the surrounding environment.

Explosion-protected (Ex) Certified Equipment and Their Applications Hazardous areas are locations where the atmosphere contains substances that can ignite and cause explosions or fires. These areas are common in industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, pharmaceuticals, mining, food processing, and more. To ensure safety, hazardous areas are classified into zones based on the… Continue reading Types of Hazardous Area Equipment And Their Applications
In industries such as chemical, food processing, breweries, pharmaceutical, defence, mineral processing, grain handling, petrol pumps and oil and gas facilities, flammable gases or combustible dust is likely to be released. Thus, workers face potential risks to their health and safety as these substances can cause fires, explosions, or toxic exposure. To ensure the well-being… Continue reading Working in Hazardous Areas: Safety Measures
