Adalet Increased Safety (Ex e) Enclosures

Increased Safety Ex e is an explosion protection concept applied to the installation to ensure increased security against the possibility of excessive temperatures and sparks from hazardous area electrical equipment. Equipment that normally causes sparks is excluded from use within this method of explosion protection.

‘Ex e’ means that an enclosure is constructed and certified as Explosion Protected according to the Increased Safety standard.

The intention of the Ex e Increased Safety standard is to provide an impact resistant enclosure for electrical equipment and also to ensure that the contents will not produce a spark, temperature or current creepage that could ignite the external flammable atmosphere in a hazardous area zone, location or workspace.Adalet Increased Safety (Ex e) Enclosures

 

Adalet Increased Safety (Ex e) Enclosures

Adalet’s VH4X(6) / VC4X(6) series increased safety enclosures are designed to house terminal blocks providing a completed terminal enclosure in compliance with all current ATEX / IECEx standards.  Available in 304 or 316L stainless steel, the quarter turn latch terminal enclosures included 13 standard sizes and any custom size in between.

Adalet offers a variety of increased safety (Exe) rated enclosures.

Increased safety enclosures are designed to prevent the possibility of excessive heat, the ingress of water or dust, and the resistance to impact, thus preventing any explosions from occurring. These enclosures are intended to house electrical equipment which will not generate an arc or spark during normal operation, and are suitable for use in Zone 1 or Zone 2 hazardous locations.

  • Zone 1: Ignitable concentrations of flammable gases or vapors are likely to exist under normal operating conditions, or may exist frequently because of repair, maintenance or leakage.
  • Zone 2: Ignitable concentrations of flammable gases or vapors are not likely to occur in normal operation, or may occur only for a short period of time during an accident or unusual operating condition.

From simple terminal enclosures to high voltage and control enclosures, Adalet’s line of increased safety enclosures offer the flexibility to meet your custom requirements.
