Explosion Proof LED Lighting Fixtures
In North American, the explosion proof lighting should be tested and certified to both the UL 1598 and UL 844 safety standards, to help avoid explosive accidents during use of the lighting fixture. Among this, Lights approved by UL844 Class 1 Division 1 (C1D1) can be used in the most dangerous gas environment.
Class I, Division 1: There are three different situations that could exist to classify an area as a Class I, Division 1 location:
- Ignitable concentrations of flammable gases or vapors may exist under normal operating conditions.
- Ignitable concentrations of such gases or vapors may exist frequently because of repair or maintenance operations or because of leakage.
- Breakdown or faulty operation of equipment or processes might release ignitable concentrations of flammable gases or vapors, and might also cause simultaneous failure of electric equipment.
Class I, Division 2: One of the following three situations must exist in order for an area to be considered a Class I, Division 2 location:
- Volatile flammable liquids or flammable gases are handled, processed or used, but the hazardous liquids, vapors or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in the event of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems, or as a result of abnormal operation of equipment.
- Ignitable concentrations of gases or vapors are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, and which might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operations of the ventilating equipment.
- Adjacent to a Class I, Division 1 location, and to which ignitable concentrations of gases or vapors might occasionally be communicated unless such communication is prevented by adequate positive-pressure ventilation from a source of clean air, and effective safeguards against ventilation failure are provided.
AmeriTech has taken great efforts to design for your safety and offers a complete product line of fixtures designed for these C1D1 and C1D2 applications.
