Division 2 / Zone 2
Division 2 / Zone 2 protection methods apply to products that will be installed in a Hazardous area where the hazard is not likely to occur under normal operation.

The concept of Flame Proof / Explosion Proof protection contains the source of potential ignition within an enclosure that will withstand the pressure of an explosion.

To apply the Pressurization protection concept the function of the product must exclude gas by positive pressure differential.
