A key building block for the energy transition
Hydrogen is indispensable for a climate-friendly future. ROSE’s explosion-proof enclosures protect the control systems of hydrogen infrastructure.
For decades, ROSE Systemtechnik has been producing explosion-proof (Ex) enclosures made of aluminium, polyester and stainless steel for industries such as chemicals, petrochemicals, oil and gas. These enclosures meet the safety standards of the ATEX and IECEx directives for potentially explosive atmospheres in gas and dust explosion protection. They are also authorised for use in the USA, the UK, Brazil, South Africa and China. The versions range from intrinsically safe models (Ex i) to pressure-tight encapsulated models (Ex d). Ex d enclosures are flameproof, i.e. they will contain an explosion inside the enclosure and prevent it from spreading to the outside. The flame path in Ex d enclosures cools sparks, flames and hot gases and thus prevents ignition of the surrounding explosive atmosphere.
As Ex d enclosures offer such a high level of protection, standard components that are not Ex-certified can also be used inside them. This allows users to choose from a wide range of automation components available on the market.
