Overview

This part of DIN EN 60079 (VDE 0170) specifies the requirements for the design, construction, testing and marking of Ex Equipment and Ex Components with type of protection liquid immersion "o" intended for use in explosive gas atmospheres. In contrast to the previous approach of protecting the equipment by immersion in oil, other liquid media are now also approved for this type of protection. This extension is intended to widen the possible scope of application. The responsible committee is DKE/K 241 "Schlagwetter- und explosionsgeschützte elektrische Betriebsmittel" ("Electrical apparatus for potentially explosive atmospheres") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
