White paper discusses hazard area management

hazard area management white paper
Abhisam Software has published a white paper on effective management of hazardous areas using gas monitors.
Electrical equipment installed in hazardous areas has to be explosion-protected and conform to the classification for that area.
However, practical problems frequently arise when the specified equipment is not easily available.
For example, an area classified as Zone 1 under the IEC system theoretically can accept only Zone 1 equipment.
Sometimes, however, especially in the case of specialised equipment, Zone 1 certified equipment of the specified type may not be available.
This paper shows how such situations can be effectively managed by using gas monitors that detect explosive gases and vapours.
The full white paper can be accessed on the Abhisam website.
