INTEGRATED EXPLOSION PROTECTION

The principle of integrated explosion protection requires all measures for explosion protection to be considered in a specific order.
The three distinctive protection measures are: primary, secondary and tertiary (construction design-related).

Measures for primary explosion protection prevent the formation of a hazardous explosive atmosphere.
This includes avoiding the use of combustibles (alternative technologies), inerting (adding nitrogen, carbon dioxide, etc.) and limiting
 the concentration via natural or technical ventilation. 

Measures for secondary explosion protection prevent the ignition of a hazardous explosive atmosphere. The level of safety required
for these precautions depends on the risk potential at the operating location.

Measures for tertiary or construction-design-related explosion protection limit the effects of an explosion to such a degree that they
are not hazardous. This includes the following options: explosion-proof or explosion-shock-proof construction design, pressure relief
and pressure equalising equipment as well as explosion suppression using fire-extinguishing equipment.
