Fans for ATEX EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES An ATEX area is a mixture of air and inflammable gas, the vapour of an inflammable liquid, a fog of combustible liquid or combustible powder, which, if they catch fire, do so at once in their entirety. Sensitivity to the ignition of gases: LIE Minimum concentration of explosivity» % volume. LSE Maximum concentration of explosivity» % volume. EMI Minimum ignition energy» 10-6 μ Joules Flash Point Minimum temperature of a liquid forms inflammable gases Temperature Temperature at which a gas ignites temperature T1, T2, T3, T4, T5 and T6 Sensitivity to the ignition of solids: LIE or CME Minimum concentration explosive» g/m 3 CLO Maximum concentration of Oxygen» % volume EMI Minimum ignition energy» 10-3 μ Joules TMI Minimum ignition temperature in ºC: - In a TMI n cloud (a cloud of dust in contact with a hot surface). - In a TMI c layer, ignition of a 5 mm layer. - (limit of T the lesser of: 2/3 of TMI n or TMI c -75ºC) Summary of definitions of the zones Explosive atmospheres II 3 G.
