Ventillation from ATEX area
Ventillation from ATEX area
(OP)
If you have ventilation from an area that is ATEX zone 2 it seems reasonable to assume that the ducts will also be zone 2?
But if you have point extraction from some equipment that without ventilation would be zone 1 or 0 - but WITH ventilation only rarely (lets say less than 10 hrs/year)see an explosive atmosphere due to dilution with air - would the ducts then be zone 2?
My though is: Equipment is zone 1 or 0 and the ducts zone 2?
Best regards, Morten
