How do I know if I need to Classify an area?
How do I know if I need to Classify an area?
(OP)
I have a room that is used to distribute pentaerythritol - it comes in as a powder and the room and components can get dusty. There is rarely a cloud or a cloudy situation. My question is - is there something that requires me to classify this room as Class 2 Div 1 or 2? Minimum ignition energy, or ignition temperature or Cloud Ignition temperature? We keep the room as sealed and secure as possible - but there has been a huge push to "Classify" it and I was wondering about the real need for this.
Thank you
Thank you
