GLOBAL PROTECTION
INTRODUCTION PROTECTING YOUR PEOPLE AND YOUR FACILITIES
Manufacturing and processing facilities, and the environments
they inhabit, continually challenge both man and machine.
With the presence of ammable gases and vapors, these
locations demand electrical products engineered to provide
proper protection from dangers like heat or spark-induced
ignition. ey must also endure nature’s toughest treatment
through corrosive ocean air on o shore rigs in the North Sea,
extreme heat at re neries in Saudi Arabia and frigid arctic
winds at mining facilities in the Canadian Oil Sands.
For over 100 years Appleton products have been helping to protect facilities, and their workers.
Whether your geography requires ATEX, IEC, NEC, or CEC certi cation, our product range,
regulatory involvement and technical expertise solve the challenges of out tting your facilities.
Our engineers have developed innovative advancements in lighting, electrical control devices
and instrumentation, making Appleton the leader in the production of hazardous location
electrical products.
At Appleton, we take the challenge of protecting hazardous environments seriously.
It is protection throughout your facility and around the globe.

GLOBAL UNDERSTANDING AND EXPERTISE
Appleton electrical products help protect re nery production in India, ensure pipeline ow in South Africa, and maintain deep sea drilling
operations in the Gulf of Mexico. Our worldwide presence demands mastery of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), ATEX Directive
and the North American (NEC/CEC) rules and a full product line for every application throughout hazardous locations.
IEC, ATEX and NEC/CEC rules each identify the amount of exposure, destructive force and ignition temperature of the gas, vapor or dust.
However, the separate regulations differ in their nomenclature and sub-category tracking. To assist in out tting and application, the following
pages show the ratings and categories of each regulation body and reference points.

are identical.
have
become the universal
reference across Europe
and are adopted along
with other admissible
standards in much of the
rest of the world. IEC uses
three Zones to classify
hazardous environment
conditions based on the
duration and amount of
combustible exposed. IEC is
continuously reviewed by a
technical board for updates
and revisions.
INTERNATIONAL ELECTROTECHNICAL COMMISSION (IEC)
Founded in 1904, the IEC is now considered the world’s largest electrotechnology organization with over 130
countries as members and over 10,000 experts contributing to its standards. e IEC code de nes hazardous
locations as Zones. Zones de ne the amount of time rated equipment is exposed to hazardous atmospheres.
Zone 0 locations feature continuous or extended exposure to ammable gases or vapors. Zone 1 locations have an
intermittent presence of ammable gases or vapors, typically as a result of leakage. Zone 2 are locations in which
ammable gases or vapors are not likely to occur in normal operation, but may become present upon the failure
of equipment or through an accident. e exposure is unlikely and, if it does occur, it will do so infrequently and
for only a short period of time. Atmospheres of combustible dusts are rated as Zone 20, 21 or 22. Zones 20, 21
and 22 correspond with Zones 0, 1 and 2 in identifying the amount of exposure to the hazardous atmosphere.
IEC Groupings rate locations on whether the hazard is a mine (Group I) or an ignitable atmosphere above ground
(Group II). IEC Subdivisions label the ignitability of the atmosphere with “A” being the least ignitable and “C”
being the most.
ATEX DIRECTIVE
e ATEX Directive is the rst uniformed code which deals with the Essential Health and Safety Requirements
IEC/ATEX
(EHSR’s) enacted by the European Union for equipment that is either used within, or connected to equipment
located within, potentially hazardous environments. It includes safety devices, controllers, regulatory devices and
other equipment whose failure would provoke an explosion.

NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE/CANADIAN ELECTRICAL CODE (NEC/CEC)
e NEC has been the standard for electrical wiring and equipment installations in the United States since 1897.
e CEC began in 1927 and provides the electrical product standards for Canada. NEC/CEC Code categorizes
hazardous locations into Classes, Divisions and Groups. Classes I, II and III de ne hazards into gases and vapors,
combustible dusts, and bers and yings, respectively. Divisions further break down the Classes by the amount of
the exposure to the combustible. Division 1 establishes locations where hazards are present during regular operations.
Division 2 locations are where hazards are encountered only during an abnormal situation, such as equipment
failure or a spill. Gas groups classify the explosive nature of the gas, vapor or dust when ignited.

LIGHTING WHENEVER AND WHEREVER YOU NEED US
From the loading bays to the re ning rooms, facilities across the world
rely on lighting xtures to safely illuminate the narrow catwalks,
enclosed production oors and 24 hour docks that connect its four
corners. Besides providing light, these critical xtures must overcome
the inherent challenges and threats of hazardous environments.
6
Appleton’s line of enclosed and gasketed xtures are the perfect choice for use in Division
and Zone locations. Our vented re ectors result in cooler operation and increased lumen
output. Appleton’s restricted breathing xtures are secure from water, gases and vapors.
Our xtures are corrosion-resistant with stainless steel hardware and epoxy powder coated
copperfree aluminum. Even a feature like our “safety” high hinge provides additional
protection against accidental ballast housing disengagement while your maintenance team
is installing or servicing them.
Our line of ameproof and explosionproof xtures are available for use in Division and
Zone 1 and 2 locations. With intelligent engineering, they are manufactured to prevent
internal explosions from reaching the vapors surrounding the xture by cooling the hot
gases through precise amepaths. Appleton’s explosionproof xtures also address safety
outside of the lamp with innovative features like proprietary wireless mounting hoods that
allow for quicker and safer “hot” installation or servicing.
From our uorescent xtures to our high durability high pressure sodium luminaires
with long lamp life and low “T” ratings, Appleton’s entire line of lighting products deliver
unparalleled protection across your facility. Our proprietary coatings keep corrosion at
bay while our exclusive re ector technology and class leading photometrics deliver the
maximum amount of light possible. Appleton also boasts more xtures for use in high
ambient applications and the lowest “T” ratings in the industry for improved performance
and wider applications.
We relentlessly test our xtures to ensure they meet or exceed their rated capabilities even
in the most extreme conditions. at is why facility engineers around the world have
turned to Appleton for lighting products that improve e ciencies while protecting
their workers.
