Laboratory Refrigerators With Explosion-proof Interiors

SRICO - Kirsch - Laboratory Refrigerators With Explosion-proof Interiors

LABEX®: Explosion-Proof Cooling

TÜV-SÜD Confirms Intrinsic Safety of our LABEX®-Models
Krisch’s USP: Maximum temperature stability and explosion proofness. When storing flammable or explosive substances, the ignition sparks and as a consequence explosions can occur due to:
  • Static discharge (e.g. via the user, pulling of drawers) or
  • Electrical components in the cabinet (e.g. temperature sensors, fans).
Therefore Kirsch’s LABEX® fridges and freezers are constructed intrinsically safe. Sparks cannot occur – even in the event of malfunction. All parts are dedicated for the use in Zone 2 or even Zone 1* explosion atmospheres, in accordance with the ATEX-guideline 2014/34/EU. We use:
  • A special grounding concept of the housing to discharge static electricity (door handle, antistatic drawers etc.)
  • Spark free supply of all electrical parts in the interior.
Operating Directive: As an employer or plant operator you are responsible for the correct selection of products, in order to avoid explosions (ATEX Directive1999/92/EG, Section II). By taking into consideration the explosion hazards, e.g.:
  • explosiveness of the materials stored,
  • Frequency of presence of explosive atmospheres

    • you are obligated to define a corresponding “zone” (e.g Zone 1, Zone 2).
    Product Directive: Since 2014 products to prevent explosions fall under the new directive 2014/34/EU. ATEX certificates based on Directive 94/9/EG are no longer valid. KIRSCH was the first company in the laboratory cooling sector to react to the new ATEX product directive 2014/34/EU. Intrinsic safety is tested and confirmed by TÜV Süd. We would be happy to send you the test review and help you to choose the correct explosion preventing product.
