Choosing a Zone 2 Explosion Proof Diesel Generator With Ats For Oil

A zone 2 explosion proof diesel generator with ats for oil is used in hazardous (flammable or explosive) environments to provide emergency power to equipment and operations. zone 2 explosion proof diesel generator with ats for oil & gas industry These gensets use an Automatic Transfer System to automatically switch from the standard source of power, such as the utility company, to the emergency generator when the standard power fails. When the normal power is restored, the ATS will then return to the standard power source and shut down the generator. This type of generator is often used in critical applications such as data centers, production plans and telecommunication networks.

When selecting a diesel generator for a hazardous environment, there are many things to consider. The most important factor is the level of danger in the operating area. Explosive gas hazardous areas are divided into zones 0, zone 1, and zone 2. Zone 0 is the most dangerous where an explosive mixture continuously or lastingly exists. Zone 1 is where an explosive gas mixture is likely to be present during normal operation. Zone 2 is where combustible dust deposits occasionally or for a short period of time.

An ATEX explosion proof diesel generator must be designed to control all sources of ignition. These include mechanical fires (such as friction and impact) and thermal fires (sparks from electrical components). The generator must also have effective control of the electric arcs produced by the engine. Aosif’s gensets feature an Atex compliant diesel engine, an Atex generator panel and anti-static accessories to ensure safety.

It is important to ensure that the generator room is properly ventilated. Non-full-time personnel should not be allowed in the generator room. The generator room should be equipped with fire fighting equipment and a sprinkler system in case of an accident. It is also important to check the generator battery charge and coolant level on a regular basis.
