Explosion Protected Systems

In the Oil & Gas industry, due to the occurrence of explosive atmospheres, reliability and safety are of paramount importance. The industry demands material handling systems that are not only well-engineered to prevent sparking but can also withstand extreme temperatures, high pressure, and corrosion over a long period of time. As the cranes need to operate in highly inflammable environments such as petroleum plants, offshore oil rigs, refineries, paint factories, chemical plants, and explosive factories, the primary requirement is their ability to operate safely without being a source of hazard. This demands special technology and the use of specialized materials, along with high levels of protection for electrical equipment.

Electromech can offer its expert solutions for such applications through a range of explosion-protected hoists and cranes that are capable of operating in the required zones (Zone 1, Zone 2, Zone 22), gas groups (II, IIA, IIB, IIC), and temperature classes (T1, T2, T3, T4). These solutions are developed using various models of hoists and crabs to build a variety of cranes such as industrial overhead cranes, gantry cranes, and jib cranes based on operational requirements.
