Hazardous Area
A hazardous area is a place where a potentially explosive atmosphere can occur.
A potentially explosive atmosphere exists when a mixture of air gases, vapors, mists, or dusts combines in such a way that it can ignite under certain conditions.
Devices and protective systems for use in potentially explosive atmospheres include a range of products used on offshore platforms, in petrochemical plants, in mining, or in the pharmaceutical industry.
