Description
Explosion protection is assessed under the EN IEC 60079 series (parts 0, 1, 7, 15 and 31) and EN ISO 80079-34, which concerns the quality system for the production of explosion-protected equipment. Part 0 contains the general requirements, part 7 describes increased safety protection "e", and part 31 concerns dust ignition protection by enclosure. Category 2 allows operation in zones 1 and 21, where an explosive atmosphere occasionally occurs in normal operation, while category 3 is intended for zones 2 and 22, where it appears rarely and for a short time. Class T6 is the strictest in terms of surface temperature, so the battery is suitable even for gases with a low autoignition temperature. The tray and connector are adapted to the specific machine, so the battery fits in place of the standard one.
How to choose
The category is determined by the zone classification at the plant. For zones 1/21 the category 2 version is ordered, for zones 2/22 category 3 is enough. The temperature class is chosen according to the most dangerous substance in the area, with T6 as the maximum for this series. When ordering, provide the forklift model, connector type and compartment dimensions, because the tray and plug are made for the machine. Outside explosive zones, ordinary HPzS traction batteries are used.
