Housings, Control Boxes, Panels, Accessories [Ex]

In explosion hazard zones, special safety regulations apply, requiring the use of equipment with specific properties and protections. Enclosures intended for use in explosive environments must meet numerous restrictions arising from the ATEX Directive 94/9/EC. These translate into various methods of preventing hazards.

The DACPOL offer includes a wide range of products in the category of components for EX - Atex explosion hazard zones. Our permanent offer includes, among others, enclosures, panels, EX d flameproof boxes, safety switches, main switches, power switches, and motor protection switches. All these products comply with the requirements of the ATEX Directive 94/9/EC.

Throughout our years of operation on the market, we have gained exceptional experience in supplying companies with essential components, and for several years we have successfully been developing our department of components for explosion hazard zones. Whether you order individual products from the enclosures, control boxes, panels, EX accessories categories or purchase them in bulk, we offer comprehensive delivery of all products.

Enclosures, control boxes, panels, EX accessories represent a rich offering for all entities operating in areas where there is a risk of explosion in the broadly understood industry. Our customers have known for years that they can rely on the quality of our ATEX product range. We continuously strive to make the ordering process from the components for explosion hazard zones – EX department as convenient as possible, which is why we enable orders to be placed online and by phone.

We offer the highest quality of sold products, regardless of whether they are high-voltage diode stacks, quartz crystals, crystal oscillators, or thermally conductive materials. We provide technical data for products from the semiconductor range so that our customers can be sure that the selected item is exactly what they need.

Protection methods – Enclosures intended for explosion hazard zone EX

Each product intended for the EX zone can be protected according to special requirements. Special markings are used for enclosures. For example, the symbol Ex “o” means protection by immersing the device in oil, Ex “p” – by introducing an inert gas into the enclosure, Ex “q” – by using quartz sand.

A product marked with the symbol Ex “d” is a flameproof enclosure. This type of enclosure is designed to contain internal sparking. These enclosures are made to withstand pressures of several tens of atmospheres.

Another type is reinforced enclosures, offering enhanced protection. These are marked with the symbol Ex “e”. Enclosures with this marking are used to protect terminal strips, electrical connections, lamp sockets, etc.

The symbol Ex “i” is intended for intrinsically safe devices that do not cause sparking during normal operation. As a result, the risk of explosion is reduced to a low level. These are so-called intrinsically safe enclosures.

The symbol Ex “m” applies to enclosures protected by encapsulation in resin. This protection type is very effective, but resins have poor heat dissipation and the devices cannot be repaired if damaged.
