Introduction EXPlora The EXPlora range is most suited to manufacturers of ancillary electrical equipment such as motors, pumps, lighting equipment, process and control gear for use in factories and plant where hazardous or explosive atmospheres can be caused by flammable gases, mists or vapours or by combustible dusts. Independently tested for compliance to ATEX standards for use in Zone 2 and Zone 22 environments, the new EXP series is manufactured from a tough,high grade UL94V-0 rated Polyester material and provides environmental sealing to IP68. The ATEX coding is: Ex II 3 GD and the certificated no: Baseefa09ATEX0232X. EXPlora is rated up to 18A, 600Vac/dc for 2, 3, 4 and 5 poles, 16A, 430Vac/dc for 7 pole and 10A, 250Vac/dc for 10 poles. The 3, 4, 5 and 7 pole versions have leading earth contacts making them suitable for single or three phase applications.
