European Hazardous Classification Crossover Question
European Hazardous Classification Crossover Question
(OP)
Hi,
I've got a European customer requesting equipment for the following hazardous classification:
EExdeIICT4
Can anyone confirm my understanding that this is equivalent to Class I Div.1 Groups A & B, Temp Class T4 (135C) ?
Thanks,
Evan

RE: European Hazardous Classification Crossover Question
You are correct, the equipment specified is flameproof similar to Class1 Div 1
Gas Group C = Hydrogen and T4=135C
EExd = flameproof
suffix e = increased safety (probably the terminal box)
This classification is common for a motor in a Zone 1 area
