In harsh industrial environments, the presence of gases, airborne dust and petroleum products can be highly explosive when a spark or high temperatures are affecting the surrounding environment.

Intrinsic safety (IS) is an electrical design approach that prevents explosions from occurring by ensuring that the energy transferred to a hazardous area is well below the energy required to initiate ...

While hazardous conditions are a fact of life in industrial plants, end users, safety organizations and automation suppliers are doing everything they can to ensure products are explosion-proof, ...
