scope:
Specifies the basic method and requirements for design, construction, testing and marking of non-electrical equipment intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres in air of gas, vapour, mist and dusts. Is valid for atmospheres having pressures ranging from 0,8 bar to 1,1 bar and temperatures ranging from -20 °C to 60 °C. Such atmospheres may also exist inside the equipment. The external atmosphere can be drawn inside the equipment by natural breathing produced as a result of fluctuations in the equipment's internal operating pressure, and/or temperature.
