Ex Plug and Socket

What is an ExProof Plug Socket?

ExProof products, which are used as safety measures and are necessary to be used in many industrial facilities, can help eliminate possible 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 bakery 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, polyester, also have an appropriate temperature range. (Protaş products use aluminum material.)  ExProof sockets play an important and significant role in the operation of the system.

What is the Function of the ExProof Socket?

Although sockets in ExProof systems do not have many tasks, they play an important role. ExProof sockets prevent sparks when electricity is turned on or off or when a cable is plugged in or unplugged. For this reason, they provide great protection in explosion-prone environments. ExProof socketscan be produced with different features depending on their areas of use but generally serve the same purpose. When purchasing ExProof sockets that make working environments safe, attention should be paid to their certificates being up to date. Products with up-to-date certificates and suitable for the area of use should be preferred.
