When choosing lighting for any hazardous industrial location it is vital that the correct type of specialised light fixture is implemented, otherwise the likelihood of a potential fire being triggered by using unsuitable equipment is severely increased.
Hazardous areas are classified as environments where flammable or explosive materials such as, fibers, dust, vapours, liquids and gases are present. In these locations standard lighting equipment cannot be used due to the high temperatures or potential sparks they emit. Instead, specialised industrial lighting solutions which are certified for use in these dangerous areas should be installed to avoid any fatal situations.
