Intrinsic safety is a protection technique that prevents electrical equipment from causing explosions in hazardous environments. It limits electrical and thermal …
The phrase "Intrinsically Safe" is often used generically to describe products destined for hazardous (explosive) areas. This post explores the term "Intrinsically Safe", provides an overview of what is required to certify a product and …
Discover how intrinsically safe barriers limit energy transfer, the types available, and why they are essential for meeting ATEX/IECEx regulations.
Intrinsic Safety (IS) is based on the principle that the electrical energy in hazardous-area circuits is deliberately restricted such that any electrical sparks or hot spots that may occur are too weak to cause ignition. This is …
Introduction When selecting instruments for hazardous areas classified as Zone 2, it is crucial to consider safety standards and the nature of the installation. Two common protection methods for electrical instruments in hazardous …
Intrinsically Safe Cell Phones! Find Out Which Cell Phones Are Intrinsically Safe And Ensure Safety In Hazardous Environments With Our Latest Blog Post.
Intrinsically Safe Temperature Data Logger The new OM-CP-Temp1000IS-A2 is an intrinsically safe temperature data logger certified to meet FM3600 and FM3610 standards. It carries hazardous location, intrinsically safe certification …
Intrinsically safe electronics in potentially explosive environments and how Zener-diode barriers and isolators ensure safety.
The Intrinsic Safety FISCO concept allows the interconnection of approved intrinsically safe devices with FISCO parameters not specifically examined in combination as a system when: …
The criterion for such interconnection is that the voltage (Ui), the current (Ii) and the power (Pi) which intrinsically safe apparatus can receive and remain intrinsically safe, considering faults, must be equal or greater than the voltage (Uo), the current (Io) and the power (Po) which can …
