Standards position | ISO 80079
Explosion safety is often approached from an electrical perspective, but many critical ignition sources are mechanical or thermal.
The ISO 80079 series provides the technical framework for assessing non-electrical equipment in explosive atmospheres.
Bearings, belts, mixers, fans, screws, pumps, elevators, valves, seals and moving parts can create effective ignition sources.
Exquintia assesses these risks in relation to the actual process, zone, operating conditions and maintenance regime.
You gain clarity on critical equipment, relevant ignition scenarios, missing documentation and measures needed to control explosion risks.
Exquintia supports ISO 80079 assessments of non-electrical equipment, ignition sources and mechanical equipment in hazardous areas.
