EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of IEC EN 60079-0 test. This standard specifies general requirements for the construction, testing and marking of Ex Equipment and Ex Components intended for use in explosive atmospheres.
This part of IEC 60079 and other standards supplementing this standard specify additional testing requirements for Ex Equipment operating outside the standard temperature range, however, further evaluation and additional testing may be required for Ex Equipment operating outside the standard atmospheric pressure range and standard oxygen content.
It is intended for use in the risk assessment of electrostatic hazards or in the preparation of product family or specific product standards for electrical or non-electrical machines or equipment.
The purpose of this part of IEC 60079 is to provide standard test methods used for the control of static electricity, such as the evaluation of surface resistance, earth leakage resistance, dust resistance, liquid conductivity, capacitance and tendency of triggered discharges.
It is specifically designed for use with existing standards of the IEC 60079 series. This part of IEC 60079 provides the latest state of information, however, it differs slightly from the requirements in other standards, particularly with regard to test environments.
To avoid the possibility of retesting previously approved equipment when a requirement of this standard conflicts with a requirement specified in IEC 60079-0, the requirement in IEC 60079-0 only applies to equipment covered by IEC 60079-0.
In all other cases, the terms in this part of IEC 60079 apply. Keywords: ignition and electrostatic shock hazards, static electricity The statements in this part of IEC 60079 apply.
