Intrinsically Safe (IS) equipment is defined as "equipment and wiring which is incapable of releasing sufficient electrical or thermal energy under normal or abnormal conditions to cause ignition of a specific hazardous atmospheric mixture in its most easily ignited concentration" (ISA-RP12.6).
This is achieved by limiting the power available to (and used or generated by) the electrical equipment in the hazardous area to a level below that which will ignite the hazardous atmosphere.
Do you have a new development requirement?We have extensive experience taking projects through all phases of development, in rapid timeframes.
