ATEX & IECEx Zone Classification Matrix
Hazardous industrial zones are defined by the likelihood and persistence of explosive gases, vapors, or combustible dusts.
| Hazard Zone | Atmosphere Nature | Frequency of Hazard | Required Protection |
|---|---|---|---|
| Zone 0 / Zone 20 | Flammable Gas / Combustible Dust | Continuous (>1,000 hrs/yr) | Ex ia, Ex ma (Two-fault intrinsic safety) |
| Zone 1 / Zone 21 | Flammable Gas / Combustible Dust | Likely during normal ops (10-1,000 hrs/yr) | Ex d (Flameproof), Ex eb, Ex mb |
| Zone 2 / Zone 22 | Flammable Gas / Combustible Dust | Unlikely / short duration (<10 hrs/yr) | Ex nR, Ex ec (Increased Safety) |
Specialized Explosion-Proof Luminaires
Every fixture in our hazardous range is precision engineered with copper-free cast aluminum enclosures and high-grade borosilicate lenses.
Flameproof High Bay Luminaires
High-output Ex d / Ex tb luminaires (12,000-45,000 lm) for high-ceiling refineries, oil processing facilities, and chemical plants with heavy-duty finned heatsinks.
Hazardous Area Linear Battens
Continuous Ex eb mb / Ex db linear LED fixtures for catwalks, pipe racks, spray booths, and chemical corridors with stainless steel latches and through-wiring.
Marine & Heavy Floodlights
IP67/IK10 rated explosion-proof floodlights equipped with 316-grade stainless steel brackets for offshore rigs, loading jetties, tank farms, and flare stacks.
Hazardous Highway & Corridor Lights
Certified roadway & tunnel luminaires engineered for petrochemical transit highways, refinery perimeter avenues, and fuel bunkering transit routes.
Flameproof Well Glass & Bulkheads
Compact, omnidirectional luminaires with electro-polished protective wire cages for stairwells, pump stations, boiler rooms, and mechanical equipment zones.
Explosion-Proof Emergency & Exit
Autonomous 90-180 minute battery-backed emergency egress luminaires with self-diagnostic circuitry and illuminated hazardous exit graphics.
Explosion-Proof Highway, Tunnel & Refinery Transit Lighting
Major petrochemical highways, fuel tanker logistics corridors, and industrial port tunnels present unique hazardous zoning challenges. The transit of volatile LNG, crude oil, and chemical cargo creates potential Zone 2 explosive vapor risks along public and private transit routes.
Credence Lighting provides specialized explosion-proof roadway luminaires featuring asymmetric batwing optics, IK10 mechanical impact ratings to withstand dynamic heavy-truck pressure waves, and full ATEX Zone 1/2 compliance.
Refinery transit and hazardous tunnel underpass illumination
Engineering Built for Gulf Industrial Conditions
55°C Ambient Thermal Capacity
Summer ambient temperatures in UAE industrial zones routinely touch 50°C. Our fixtures incorporate pure copper heat pipes and oversized finned radiators ensuring internal junction temperatures remain safely below degradation limits and maintain certified T-Class ratings.
C5-M Marine & H2S Corrosion Defense
Manufactured with ultra-low copper aluminum alloy (<0.1% Cu) and treated with multi-stage fluorocarbon or C5-M marine epoxy coatings to withstand extreme coastal salt fog and corrosive airborne hydrogen sulfide fumes.
IP66/IP67 Dust & Water Ingress
High-temperature silicone gaskets and labyrinth seal designs ensure zero ingress of fine desert silica dust during heavy shamals or high-pressure equipment washdowns.
10kV/20kV Surge Suppression
Heavy industrial motor start-ups, switching surges, and lightning strikes are mitigated by multi-stage internal surge suppression modules, safeguarding critical LED arrays and drivers from electrical failure.
