Il-protezzjoni kontra l-fjammi tirrappreżenta wieħed mill-metodi diversi fl-isfera tal-protezzjoni mill-isplużjonijiet.
Dawn il-metodi jinkludu: 'o' mgħaddas fiż-żejt, positive pressure ‘p’, ‘q’ mimli ramel, flameproof ‘d’, increased safety ‘e’, intrinsic safety ‘i’ (intrinsikament sigur), special ‘s’, and non-sparking ‘u’ tipi. Notevolment, certain methods of explosion protection can be synergistically combined for enhanced effectiveness. (The letters correspond to the types of explosion protection indicated on the labels of explosion-proof devices.)
