The presentation will cover the various ways of classifying hazardous areas in an industrial manufacturing facility, including how an explosion occurs and how to prevent it. It will explain how different areas are classified depending on the associated risks, including the various gasses and dusts present, as well as how temperature affects the classification. Differences in barrier types will be covered with a focus on intrinsic safety. The presentation closes with some real-world examples of hazardous applications and how barriers isolate the electrical signals safely.
