Er is geen risico op een explosiefout; intrinsiek veilige apparatuur is absoluut veilig, zelfs als deze beschadigd is.
“Intrinsic safety” refers to the equipment’s ability to remain safe in the event of a malfunction, including short circuits, overheating, and more, without any external interference. Regardless of whether the issue is internal or external, it will not cause any fire or explosion. This inherent safety feature is what makes intrinsically safe equipment a reliable choice in hazardous environments.
