Electrical Explosion Protection Equipment Overview Products and Solutions Ex e, Ex d, Ex de, Ex p About us Automation is our world. A perfect application solution is our goal. A willingness to take entrepreneurial risks, a pioneering spirit, and a firm belief in their own inventive powers – these were the assets that Walter Pepperl and Ludwig Fuchs started out with when they opened their Mannheim radio repair shop in 1945. Their invention of the proximity switch a few years later proved their strength. It was also the starting point in a successful history defined by close customer relationships as well as innovative automation technologies and procedures. Then as now, our focus is directed squarely on the individual requirements of each customer. Whether as a pioneer in electrical explosion protection, or as a leading innovator of highly efficient sensors – the close communication with our custom- 2 ers is what allowed us to become the leader in automation technology. Our main objective is combining state-of-the-art technologies and comprehensive services to optimize our customers’ processes and applications.

By applying this philosophy and by providing top-quality engineering, we set global benchmarks for technologies in the area of explosion protection. And we do so time and time again. The Explosion Protection Types Explosion protection can be achieved in various ways. It depends on factors including the type of facility and system and the physical preconditions. This section explains four processes used in electrical explosion protection equipment and solutions from Pepperl+Fuchs. Ex i – intrinsic safety Ex d – flameproof enclosure The traditional electronic explosion protection. The supply to the electrical equipment is fed through a safety barrier that limits the current and voltage so that the minimum ignition energy and ignition temperature of an explosive mixture are not reached. Switching equipment and controls are installed in a flameproof enclosure to ensure that possible sparks cannot escape. The components that could trigger ignition are built into an enclosure that will withstand the pressure of an explosion. The openings of the enclosure are designed and constructed to prevent the explosion from escaping the enclosure. Ex e – increased safety Ex p – pressurized enclosure Mechanical support for explosion protection in the form of appropriate protective enclosures and mechanical protection for clamps, screens and electrical components. The occurrence of sparks and impermissible temperatures that could act as a source of ignition is prevented through additional mechanical protective measures. Switching equipment and controls are installed in an enclosure that is constantly kept under slight overpressure with nitrogen or a nonexplosive gas to prevent penetration by flammable gases. The equipment enclosure is filled with an inert gas and an explosive gas mixture can’t get to the possible sources of ignition that are arranged on the inside of the enclosure. Electrical explosion protection by Pepperl+Fuchs offers products and solutions according to various international standards such as: NEC 5 0 0 CCOE 5 Terminal and Junction Boxes Terminal and Junction Boxes Ex e, Ex i GVU/P GL1*.T GVU – Glass Fiber Reinforced Polyester GL – Glass Fiber Reinforced Polyester The GL terminal boxes and GVU junction boxes are manufactured from glass fiber reinforced polyester, which provides a high-strength, impact-resistant solution for the majority of applications.

A pharmaceutical production plant poses different demands for device protection than an off shore drilling rig in arctic waters. Many international, regional, and companyinternal safety regulations have to be observed. From single Ex e control units through complex Ex e or Ex d control stations up to sophisticated Ex de control and distribution panels or Ex p systems, the vast variety of components certified to all appropriate types of explosion protection allows solution designs to meet any requirement of virtually all applications in processing industries. Combining electrical components not certified for use in hazardous areas with operating and monitoring elements to fully certified solutions, either in Ex d or Ex p, requires fundamental knowledge in explosion protec- tion and long years of experience with production plants. The teams of project engineers and technicians, located all over the world in the Pepperl+Fuchs Solution Engineering Centers, command all the necessary skills to achieve the best solutions for the user’s specific application. With the Pepperl+Fuchs brand GOVAN, we provide a complete range of explosion protection equipment and customized solutions to support customers throughout the Australian, South East Asian, and Middle East markets.
