Explosion Protection

The topic of explosion protection originated in mining. Mixtures of methane and air that arise in coal mining and are explosive in a certain ratio were handled with controlled explosions until the second half of the century. But how does it work now?

Both Ex and non-Ex areas can be found in wastewater plants. The WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM 750 allows efficient plant control for both areas.

With its 750 XTR Series of products, WAGO has offered a solution since 2014 that broadens the range of use for machines and systems with regard to environmental conditions and external interference factors, while providing the highest degree of flexibility. Temperatures ranging from a frigid −40°C to a hot 70°C, vibrations up to 5g or elevations up to 5,000 m above sea level: The WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM 750 XTR can be used everywhere. It also has increased immunity to impulse voltages and interference in accordance with EN 60870-2-1.

Whether encased in ice, surrounded by desert or on the high seas, components at pumping stations for oil and gas production must endure the harshest conditions for decades at a time. The WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM 750 XTR has been specially designed for these environments.
