| Summary: | The presentation shows the transfer from old examples to the new (blue) edition of the sample collection within the DGUV rule 113-001 – Collection of technical rules for the avoidance of hazards from explosive atmospheres with sample collection to classify hazardous areas into zones (original name: “DGUV Regel 113- 001, Sammlung technischer Regeln für das Vermeiden der Gefahren durch explosionsfähige Atmosphäre mit Beispielsammlung zur Einteilung explosionsgefährdeter Bereiche in Zonen”, published by the German Social Accident Insurance) in accordance of the recommendations of the explosion protection experts from the German Social Accident Insurance, Industriegaseverband (Industrial Gases Association in Germany), authorities and notified bodies.
To introduce into the topic, further contents are the identification and evaluation of examples for explosion hazards, places where explosion hazards are likely to occur (hazard area classification and zones) and measures to avoid explosion hazards or to protect against the consequences of an explosion.
This procedure will be shown using examples for acetylene plants and customers supply systems within the publication DGUV rule 113-001.
In the following the project is described. The project to transfer old examples to new example collection was initiated after consulting meeting with a member company of BG RCI. After identification and evaluation of examples for explosion hazards, places where explosion hazards are likely to occur (hazard area classification and zones), measures to avoid explosion hazards or to protect against the consequences of an explosion the created examples were assessed by explosion protection experts (authorities, notified bodies, industry, …). Finally the examples were published in DGUV rule 113-001. A selection of examples is shown in the presentation.
