The explosion-proof classification dⅱ bt4 for electrical equipment surpasses dⅱ bt2, differing only in the classification numbers 4 and 2.
Temperature group of electrical equipment | Maximum allowable surface temperature of electrical equipment (℃) | Gas/vapor ignition temperature (℃) | Applicable device temperature levels |
---|---|---|---|
T1 | 450 | >450 | T1~T6 |
T2 | 300 | >300 | T2~T6 |
T3 | 200 | >200 | T3~T6 |
T4 | 135 | >135 | T4~T6 |
T5 | 100 | >100 | T5~T6 |
T6 | 85 | >85 | T6 |
Classification T4 specifies that the gas ignition temperature is under 135°C, whereas T2 allows for temperatures up to 300°C.
Ignition temperatures are divided into six categories, ranging from T1 to T6, with each higher category being suitable for the conditions of all preceding categories.
