For long electric motors for hydrogenation plants are considered as staple safety equipment and investment. Once the potentially explosive areas are identified, the right Gas group motor dealers are able to supply the grade of motors.
S C Industrial Syndicate has been in the business of supplying several flameproof motors that keep workers safe. Smooth operations of industrial plants depend on our expertise to install the precise grade of equipment.
This information is a 5-minute quick reading material to understand explosive areas where Gas Group IIC Motor Dealers can eliminate any challenges related to explosion.
What constitutes an ‘explosive atmosphere’
Globally the ATEX (Atmosphere Explosible) is referred to places where there is a mixture of various dangerous gases exist. They are in the form of mist, vapour or even dust. The danger comes from combustion and ignition when these gases collude, thus making the environment unsafe. While operating in these precarious conditions challenges related to control (of gases), and safety standards crop up. Explosions are controlled by motors specifically designed to handle humidity, heat, fire or combustion.
Any motor malfunction which ignite the environment require a through grade of Flameproof Motors for gas groups IIA & IIB. They are made by experts to reduce flames from rising due to dust, moisture or fire released by emerging gases. They also protect against the invasion of any solid object. The IP rates divulge how the motor is protected.
Types of explosive flameproof motors
There are diverse explosive environments where safety devices are essentially installed. A small spark is sufficient to release gases and make the ambience explosive. When flameproof motors are used they contain ‘flame paths.’ They are located in the shafts and inner coverings. The motors are built with long joints which restrict the flames from expanding or moving around. Such motors are designed to withstand any explosion that occurs inside.
The most commonly supplied in offshore rigs or wastewater processing need:
- Flameproof Motors for Gas Groups IIA & IIB
- Flameproof Motors for Gas Groups IIC
In an ‘Ex D environment’ flameproof motors are mounted. Locations identified for their usage include Zone 1, Zone 2, or Class 1 division 1 and 2.
