Flame proof lamp: power plant safety lighting core security and technological innovation

First, why do power plants have to use Flame proof lamp?

Power plant environment is complex, including fuel storage areas [such as coal silos, fuel tanks], boiler rooms, chemical processing areas and other high-risk areas, there are gas, dust, high temperature and flammable chemicals and other explosion hazards.

Ordinary lighting equipment in extreme working conditions due to sparks or high temperature fire, while the Flame proof lamp approved explosion-proof structural design, high-temperature-resistant materials and sealing protection technology to ensure stable operation in explosive environments, to eliminate the safety hidden.

The Flame proof lamp approves the explosion-proof structure design, high temperature resistant material and sealing protection technology to ensure stable operation in explosive environment, which can fundamentally eliminate potential safety hazards.

In addition to this, its IP65/66 level of protection can resist moisture, corrosive gases and dust erosion, prolonging the service life and reducing the frequency of maintenance.

Second, Flame proof lamp in the power plant fundamental application scenarios

1. Fuel storage and processing area, coal bunker, fuel tanks and other areas to store a large number of combustible substances, Flame proof lamp approved by the explosion-proof shell and non-sparking circuit design, in emergency situations to provide a stable lighting, to help safe operation and high-speed evacuation.

boiler room, steam engine room and other high temperature and high humidity environment in the core area of power generation equipment, lamps and lanterns need to withstand mechanical vibration and heat radiation.

The Flame proof lamp adopt aluminum alloy heat dissipation structure and high temperature resistant glass to ensure the safety of lighting during equipment inspection and troubleshooting.

3. chemical treatment and hydroelectric power plant areas involving acid and alkali corrosion or hydrogen leakage risk areas, lamps and lanterns need to have corrosion-resistant coatings and explosion-proof certification, to prevent chemical attack triggered by equipment failure.

4. control room and evacuation routes, even if not directly at risk of explosion areas, Flame proof lamp emergency function [such as 1-3 hours of standby power] can maintain the fundamental operation and evacuation of personnel in the event of power failure lighting.

Third, Amasly Flame proof lamp three core technical advantages

1. Multiple certifications to ensure compliance with ATEX, IECEx and GB3836 and other international explosion-proof standards, to meet the “Fire Protection Code for Thermal Power Plant Design” GB50229 mandatory requirements, to avoid legal risks.

2. energy-saving and long-lasting design adopts high luminous efficiency LED module, energy consumption is 60%-70% lower than traditional lamps and lanterns, with intelligent dimming system, adapting to the needs of different working conditions. For example, 50W LED explosion-proof lamp life of more than 50,000 hours, significantly reducing replacement costs.

3. Intelligent integration and emergency response with the help of Internet of Things remote monitoring, real-time feedback on the status of the lamps and lanterns, and in the event of a power failure automatically switch to battery power supply, to ensure seamless emergency lighting.

Fourth, how to choose the right power plant Flame proof lamp?

1. Match the explosion-proof level: according to the regional hazard level [Zone 1/21 or Zone 2/22] to choose Exd [explosion-proof] or Exe [increased safety] lamps and lanterns.

2. Enhanced protection performance: Give priority to IP66/IP67 protection level and verify the corrosion-resistant material (e.g. 316 stainless steel shell).

3. Supplier qualification audit: Ensure that manufacturers supply explosion-proof certificate, coal mine safety mark [MA] and customized solutions, such as dustproof and waterproof design for coal conveyor bridge.

Fifth. Installation and operation and maintenance guidelines for Flame proof lamp

Professional installation: operated by licensed electricians to ensure that the seals are aligned and wiring is standardized to avoid failure of the explosion-proof structure.

Regular maintenance: clean the surface dust of the lamps and lanterns every month, check whether the shell is deformed or corroded, and test the sealing of the circuit and the capacity of the battery every 2 years.

Prohibit the use of non-original accessories: modification probably lead to certification failure, increasing the security risks.

FAQ: Analysis of common problems of Flame proof lamp

Q1：Difference between explosion-proof [Exd] and safety-increasing [Exe] lamps?

A1：Explosion-isolated type is approved to contain internal explosion in closed structure, applicable to high hazardous area [Zone 1];

Increased safety type is approved to enhance the safety of components to prevent sparks, and is mostly used in Zone 2 environments.

Q2：Does fire-resistant lighting need to be replaced regularly?

A2: LED light source life of more than 50,000 hours, often do not need to be replaced frequently, but the need for regular testing of the circuit and sealing, advocating the implementation of professional assessment every 2 years.

Q3: Does the intelligent control system increase the cost?

A3：Initial investment is higher, but can be approved to improve energy consumption [energy saving 70%] and failure warning to reduce long-term operation and maintenance costs, return on investment cycle of about 1.5-2 years.

Q4：How to deal with the waste lamps and lanterns?

A4: It is necessary to contact professional recycling organizations, and it is prohibited to dismantle them at will to prevent the leakage of hazardous substances or residual flammable gases from triggering secondary risks.
