If your company works with explosive substances, in the form of gases, vapors, mists or dust then all equipment intended for use in this explosive environment will need to comply with the ATEX 114 directive (2014\/34\/EU) or possibly IECEx standard outside Europe.<\/p>\n

Kwadrant IA supplies explosion-proof control panels, control cabinets and terminal boxes for Zone1 and Zone2 for gas and dust environments. Depending on the area of application and the required level of safety, different types of protection can be used: increased safety (Ex e), intrinsic safety (Ex i), flameproof enclosure (Ex d) or internal overpressure (Ex p) or a combination of these.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
