Ex Plug and Socket

What is an ExProof Plug Socket?

ExProof products, which are used as a safety measure in many industrial facilities and required to be used, can help eliminate potential explosion risks. ExProof products should be used in explosion-prone areas such as LPG, natural gas, sugar factories, lumber and furniture factories, petroleum, chemical, oven, and bread factories. One of the ExProof products used in these areas is ExProof plug sockets. ExProof sockets provide high safety in areas where explosions may occur. ExProof sockets, produced using materials such as aluminum, stainless steel, and polyester, also have a suitable temperature range. (Aluminum material is used in Protaş products.) ExProof sockets play an important and significant role in the operation of the system.

What is the Function of an ExProof Socket?

Although sockets in ExProof systems do not have many tasks, they play an important role. ExProof sockets prevent sparks from occurring when electricity is turned on or off or when a cable is plugged in or unplugged. Therefore, they provide great protection in explosion-prone environments. ExProof sockets can be produced with different features depending on their areas of use but generally serve the same purpose. ExProof sockets, which make working areas safe, should be purchased with up-to-date certifications. Products with current certifications and suitable for the area of use should be preferred.
