Ex Electrical Switches
Ex electrical switches are electrical switches used in zone1 or zone2 environments. ATEX (Atmosphères Explosibles) and EN (European Norm) standards define a set of requirements for the design, manufacture, installation, and use of electrical devices used in explosive environments.
ATEX is a series of European Union directives for the safe use of electrical devices in explosive environments. Exproof electrical switches that comply with these directives are approved for use in explosive environments. The ATEX directive specifies the design, manufacture, testing, certification, and marking requirements for devices used in explosive atmospheres.
EN standards are standards valid in European Union countries for the design, manufacture, installation, and use of electrical devices. Exproof electrical switches are designed and manufactured in accordance with EN 60079-0:2012 and EN 60079-1:2014 standards.
EN 60079-0:2012 defines the general requirements for electrical devices used in explosive environments. This standard specifies requirements regarding materials used in the design and production of Exproof electrical switches, enclosure types, leak tests, insulation, operating temperatures, and other features.
EN 60079-1:2014 sets the requirements for classification and certification of electrical devices used in explosive environments. This standard specifies requirements about which explosive environments Exproof electrical switches can be used in, which certifications they must have, which tests need to be performed, and marking requirements.
In conclusion, Exproof electrical switches are a special type of electrical switches designed for use in explosive environments and manufactured in compliance with ATEX and EN standards. These switches have features such as special enclosure types, leak tests, and insulation, allowing them to be used safely in explosive environments.
Ex Limit Switches
Exproof limit switches are electrical devices used in zone1 or zone2 environments. These switches are used to monitor the state of a process or operation and to detect a specific position. Limit switches are simple, reliable, and common devices used to monitor the movement of a device or the position of an object.
EN 60079-0:2012 and EN 60079-14:2014 standards define the design, manufacture, and certification requirements for limit switches used in explosive environments.
EN 60079-0:2012 defines the general requirements for electrical devices used in explosive environments. This standard specifies requirements regarding materials used in the design and production of Exproof limit switches, enclosure types, leak tests, insulation, operating temperatures, and other features.
EN 60079-14:2014 specifies the requirements for classification and certification of limit switches used in explosive environments. This standard defines requirements about which explosive environments Exproof limit switches can be used in, which certifications they must hold, which tests need to be conducted, and marking requirements.
