CLC/TC 31 Electrical apparatus for potentially explosive atmospheres
European Norm
Withdrawn
This European Standard gives requirements for the selection, installation and safe use of hand-held electrostatic spray guns with an energy limit of 5 mJ and their associated apparatus complying with EN 50 050, which may cause an explosive atmosphere when spraying flammable coating powders. This European Standard considers only the hazards that are specific to the electrostatic characteristics of the electrostatic spraying process when the operator stands outside the booth when spraying. For other aspects such as classification of hazardous areas (e.g. classification into zones), selection, installation and use of electrical equipment in hazardous areas, health hazards (e.g. toxic and skin effects, electric shock), cleaning of powder spraying areas, fire hazard from external sources, storage and handling of flammable materials, explosion protection systems, national regulations apply
