Convention presentation

Hazardous location motors, often referred to as explosion-proof motors, are designed and tested for use in environments where fire or explosive hazards may exist due to flammable gases, vapors, combustible dusts, or ignitable fibers. These motors must contain any flame within the motor to prevent ignition of the surrounding atmosphere. Various standards govern the use of these motors, including those from Underwriter’s Laboratories (UL), Canadian Standards Association (CSA), International Electrotechnical Commission (IECEx), Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA), Factory Mutual (FM), Atmosphères Explosibles (ATEX), and British Approvals Service for Electrical Equipment in Flammable Atmospheres (Baseefa).
