Pepperl+Fuchs, as the leading expert in explosion protection, has compiled its extensive knowledge into a set of comprehensive, easy-to-use documents.
Under the three topics
- "Classification of explosion hazardous environments",

a handy poster in A1 offers a quick introduction to the science of explosion protection and ATEX regulations.
The complex marking of apparatus gets decoded and its meaning explained in detail. The different types of explosion protection are shown with reference to the current CENELEC and the upcoming IEC/EN standards.
For more detailed information the well-known Pepperl+Fuchs Explosion Protection Manual has been updated. It offers in-depth knowledge on the physical basics of explosion protection, all kinds of explosion protection methods as well as standards and certification regulations. A special focus is set on the design of signal loops in intrinsic safety and installation of modern fieldbus networks in hazardous areas. A full chapter is dedicated to dust explosion protection.
