Zone 0, Zone 1 & Zone 2 are hazardous area classifications used to identify locations where explosive gas atmospheres may occur. Defined by the IEC 60079-10-1 standard, these zones indicate the frequency and duration of an explosive atmosphere not the severity of an explosion. Zone 0: An explosive gas atmosphere…
Hazardous Area Classification (HAC) is one of the most important engineering studies for industries handling flammable gases, vapours, mists, or combustible dusts. By identifying locations where explosive atmospheres may occur, Hazardous Area Classification helps engineers select appropriate equipment, implement effective ignition source controls, and design safer industrial facilities. Whether in…
