Explosive Atmospheres - Part 9: Equipment Protection
by Encapsulation “m”
1 Scope
This document gives the specific requirements for the construction, testing and
marking of electrical equipment, parts of electrical equipment and Ex components with
the type of protection encapsulation “m” intended for use in explosive gas atmospheres
or explosive dust atmospheres.
This document applies only for encapsulated electrical equipment, encapsulated parts
of electrical equipment and encapsulated Ex components (hereinafter always referred
to as “m” equipment) where the rated voltage does not exceed 11 kV.
The application of electrical equipment in atmospheres, which may contain explosive
gas as well as combustible dust simultaneously, may require additional protective
measures.
This document does not apply to dusts of explosives, which do not require atmospheric
oxygen for combustion, or to pyrophoric substances.
This document does not take account of any risk due to an emission of flammable or
toxic gas from the dust.
This document supplements and modifies the general requirements of GB/T 3836.1.
Where a requirement of this standard conflicts with a requirement of GB/T 3836.1, the
requirement of this document takes precedence.
