This document replaces GB/T 3836.11-2017 "Explosive atmospheres - Part 11:
Material characteristics for gas and vapour classification - Test methods and data".
Compared with GB/T 3836.11-2017, in addition to the structural adjustments and
editorial changes, the main technical changes in this document are as follows:
- the range that needs to simultaneously determine the maximum test safety gap and
the minimum ignition current ratio is changed (see 4.2, 4.3 of this Edition, 4.4 of
Edition 2017);
- cases where classification should not be based on similarity in chemical structure
are added (see 4.4 of this Edition);
- the requirements for the short-circuit current of the ignition device and the
requirements for the spark discharge time are added (see 6.3.4 of this Edition);
- the requirements for the autoignition temperature test device are changed (see 7.2
of this Edition, 7.2 of Edition 2017);
- the sampling, preparation and storage requirements for auto-ignition temperature
test specimens are added (see 7.3 of this Edition);
- the procedures for auto-ignition temperature test are changed (see 7.4 of this
Edition, 7.3 of Edition 2017);
- the criterion for the validity of auto-ignition temperature test results is changed (see
7.6 of this Edition, 7.5 of Edition 2017);
- the requirements for test record data are changed (see 7.7 of this Edition, 7.6 of
Edition 2017).
This document identically adopts ISO/IEC 80079-20-1:2017 "Explosive atmospheres -
Part 20-1: Material characteristics for gas and vapour classification - Test methods and
data".
The following minimal editorial changes have been made to this document:
- to coordinate with existing standards, the name of the standard is changed to
"Explosive atmospheres - Part 11: Material characteristics for gas and vapour
classification - Test methods and data";
- the molecular formulas for substances with CAS numbers as 98-01-1, 100-40-3,
103-11-7, 106-58-1, 106-92-3, 108-89-4, 106-96-7, 111-43-3, 123- 63-7, 142-29-
0, 151-56-4, 291-64-5, 1738-25-6, 2426-08-6 are corrected;
- the description of X and Y in Figure D.1 is corrected;
- the technical corrigenda of ISO/IEC 80079-20-1:2017/COR1:2018 are
incorporated. The position of the outer margin of the clause involved is marked
with a vertical double line (ǁ);
- Bibliography is modified.

Explosive atmospheres - Part 11: Material characteristics for
gas and vapour classification - Test methods and data
1 Scope
This document specifies the test methods and classification principles for determining
the maximum experimental safe gaps (MESG) of gas-air mixtures or vapour-air
mixtures under normal temperature and pressure conditions (20°C, 101.3kPa). It
provides guidance for the classification of gases and vapours. This document also gives
the characteristic parameters of common flammable gases and vapours in order to select
the appropriate equipment category. This document also specifies the test method for
the determination of the auto-ignition temperature (AIT) of vapour-air or gas-air
mixtures at atmospheric pressure in order to select the appropriate equipment
temperature group. The chemical property values of the substances are provided to
assist in the selection of suitable equipment for hazardous locations. When verification
test results are available, further data can be added.
The materials and the characteristics included in a table (see Annex B) have been
selected with particular reference to the use of equipment in hazardous areas.
The data in this document are derived from some of the references listed in Bibliography.
These methods for determining the MESG or the AIT may also be used for gas-air-inert
mixtures or vapour-air-inert mixtures. However, data on air-inert mixtures are not
tabulated.
