一文讀懂防爆，本安和危險區(qū)域
ATEX涉及2個歐盟指令。第一個是ATEX 137工作場所指令，第二個是ATEX 95設(shè)備指令。
ATEX 137工作場所指令（也稱為99/92 / EC）涉及保護在爆炸性環(huán)境中可能處于危險之中的勞動所需的最低要求。
ATEX 95設(shè)備指令（也稱為94/9 / EC）涉及在潛在爆炸性環(huán)境中使用設(shè)備和系統(tǒng)。
The term ATEX refers to 2 European Directives. The first being the ATEX 137 Workplace Directive and the second is the ATEX 95 Equipment Directive.
The ATEX 137 Workplace Directive (also known as 99/92/EC) relates to the minimum requirements needed for the protection of the workforce who may be at risk in explosive atmospheres.
The ATEX 95 Equipment Directive (also known as 94/9/EC) relates to the use of equipment and systems in potentially explosive atmospheres.

閃點
這是液體產(chǎn)生足夠的蒸氣以支持點火的最低溫度。該蒸氣可以通過多種方式被點燃，包括溫度或能量（即火花）。
點火溫度
這是蒸氣被點燃的最低溫度。這定義了溫度等級。
Flashpoint
This is the lowest temperature at which a liquid generates sufficient vapour to support ignition. This vapour can be ignited in many ways including temperature or energy (i.e. a spark).
Ignition Temperature
This is the lowest temperature at which the vapour will be ignited. This defines the temperature class.

儀器組（能量點火）
所有地面工業(yè)氣體/蒸氣均歸為第二類氣體，第二組分為3個子組：
IIA –點燃需要高能量。爆炸強度較小。（丙烷）
IIB –點燃所需的能量更少。爆炸更激烈。（乙烯）
IIC –點火所需的能量很少。最強烈的爆炸。（氫）
Apparatus Group (Energy Ignition)
All surface industry gases/vapours are classed as Group II gases. Group II is divided into 3 sub groups:
IIA – High energy is required to ignite. Less intense explosion. (Propane)
IIB – Less energy is required to ignite. More intense explosion. (Ethylene)
IIC – Little energy is required to ignite. Most intense explosion. (Hydrogen)
