Introduction
General Description
Hazardous Areas
The Phoenix™ 7” FH07B Series Flameproof Camera Housing is certified to the EC (ATEX)
Directive 94/9/EC for use in hazardous areas.
A hazardous area is defined as an area in which explosive atmospheres are, or may be
expected to be, present in quantities such as to require special precautions for the
construction and use of electrical equipment. An explosive atmosphere consists of a mixture
of flammable substances with air in the form of gas, vapour, mist or dust in such proportions
that it can be exploded by excessive temperatures, arcs, sparks or flames.
Equipment is housed in an enclosure into which gas may gain access. Should this gas be
ignited within the enclosure, the resulting explosion will not reduce the pressure integrity of
the enclosure or will not be transmitted to any flammable atmosphere external to the
enclosure.
Note: This equipment may contain an ignition source even after disconnection.
