Explosion Protection System

Quick Selection Guide

For Dust Collectors

This brief guide illustrates typical ap-

plications of explosion protection sys-

tems. Each type of protection is appli-

cation specific, thus design expertise

is required to select the most appro-

priate system. Other components

such as infrared detectors, flameless

vents, or isolation valves may be part

of the protection solution, depending

on the application. Please contact

IEP Technologies to discuss your pro-

tection needs with one of our Applica-

tion Engineers.
