Explosion-proof protection type Ex e is defined in the international standard IEC EN 60079-7. Below, we explain the principle behind it, show example applications, and provide some useful tips for users and purchasers of Ex equipment. From oil & gas refineries to chemical plants, power generation facilities, and offshore platforms, explosion proof enclosures and certified ex equipment play a vital role in protecting people, assets, and operations. This guide provides a complete breakdown of enclosure types, materials, certifications, temperature considerations, and installation insights to help engineers, designers, and safety professionals select enclosures that meet both operational and regulatory demands. The requirements for electrical equipment for hazardous locations are multi-layered: National and international determinations, guidelines and standards must be complied with to achieve the highest possible level of safety. Such structures are specially configured to be pressure vessels hence they can contain internal pressure without propagating it.
