What is explosion proof camera?
Designed for use in hazardous and challenging environments, Honeywell’s new explosion-proof network camera features an ATEX/IECEx-certified 316L stainless steel housing that prevents sparks from escaping and igniting gases or dust in the surrounding air.
Are digital cameras intrinsically safe?

What is an Atex camera?
Intrinsically Safe Cameras – ATEX / IECEx Our range of ATEX rated intrinsically safe cameras & explosion proof digital cameras are ideal for taking images and video footage in dangerous environments including those with a risk of explosions. ATEX stands for ‘Atmosphere Explosible’.
What makes a camera intrinsically safe?
Intrinsically safe refers to a protection method that prevents ignition by spark of thermal means. There are three levels of Intrinsic Safety; ia, ib and ic. Tools certified to these levels can be used in Zone 0, Zone 1 or Zone 2 hazardous areas respectively.
How do you know if a camera is intrinsically safe?
Intrinsically Safe Camera’s are specifically designed and engineered for Hazardous Area environments. Digital cameras in Explosion Proof areas will specifically be marked with certifications such as ATEX Zone 1, ATEX Zone 2, Class 1 Divison 1, Class 1 Division 2, IECEx and more.
Does intrinsically safe mean explosion proof?
WHAT IS INTRINSIC SAFETY AND EXPLOSION PROOF? Therefore, Intrinsically Safe means that an apparatus, such as a temperature transmitter is not capable of causing an explosion. Explosion Proof means that should an explosion occur, it will be contained within an enclosure.
What color is intrinsically safe?
blue
Intrinsically safe cables are usually coloured blue so as to identify the potential risk of the electric circuit and the need for special consideration. The cables are often protected by tough sheathing materials such as polyurethane to prevent any mechanical damage which could compromise electrical safety.
Are cell phones explosion proof?
Mobile phones are radio transmitters – the radio frequency energy from a phone, although tiny, still has the potential to induce a spark in nearby metallic objects if the conditions are right, and ignite petroleum or other explosive vapours. That’s why it’s forbidden to use them at filling stations.
Are iPhones intrinsically safe?
Whilst the iPhone & iPad are not intrinsically safe by themselves they can be made intrinsically safe through the addition of a 3rd party case that is intrinsically safe.
