MINING applications The first hazardous area was discovered in the early coal mines* This area held a double hazards melhane gas (firedamp] ond coal dust. Methane gas is absorbed in the pores of coaL When the coal is mined the methane is evolved, a process fiat takes a relatively short time. To be completely free of methane, coal has to be store for a period of up to When miners worked an 8-hour shift pattern, the mined coal woufd be left in the shaft until the next day. during which time the melhane would start to be evolved inlo the air in the shaft.

Groups II & III are further sub-divided depending upon the hazard.Group II gases are grouped together based upon the amount of energyrequired to ignite the most explosive mixture of the gas with air. Group III dusts are subdivided according to the nature of the explosive atmosphere for which it is intended. The equipment that may cause an explosion is contained within an enclosure which can withstand the force of an explosion and prevent transmission to the outside hazardous atmosphere. This method of protection also prevents the hazardous atmosphere from entering the enclosure and coming into...
