This means….

Zone 21 identifies areas where combustible dust is occasionally present.
Zone 22 identifies areas where combustible dust is not usually present but could be for short periods.
Cygnus 1 Ex has an Intrinsically Safe Design, featuring:
- Limited output energy to prevent ignition of explosive atmospheres.
- Anti-static enclosure to prevent static electricity discharge.
- Multiple redundant safety components.
- In the event of damage or a fault, no high surface temperatures are generated that could ignite an explosive atmosphere.
