Incazelo:
Compared to general industrial and domestic electrical equipment, explosion-proof electrical devices must have necessary markings to indicate that they are of an explosion-proof type. This is what is referred to as the explosion-proof marking.
Inhloso:
Each explosion-proof electrical device should have its explosion-proof marking clearly displayed on its visible parts and nameplate. This system provides essential information, indicating that the marked electrical equipment is explosion-proof and specifying the types of igesi evuthayo environments and hazardous areas where it can be safely used. Ngokusobala, this is crucial information.
Composition:
The composition of the explosion-proof marking and examples of such markings consist of the following English letter combinations: Ex (Explosion-protect) represents “ukuvimbela ukuqhuma,” followed by the explosion-proof type (which can also include the equipment protection level), equipment category, explosion-proof grade symbol (noma izinga lokushisa), and/or equipment protection level symbol (noma izinga lokushisa).
The representations of the uhlobo lokuvikela ukuqhuma (d, e, i, p, o, q, m, n, s), equipment classification (I, II) (IIA, IIB, I-IIC), temperature grading (T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6), and equipment protection levels (Ca, Cb, Ga; Ma, Mb, Gb) are well-established. Ngakho, we use these representations to exemplify the composition of explosion-proof markings for different types of izinto zikagesi ezingaqhumi.
