Explosion Proof

Explosion Proof

Safe pumping in hazardous areas where flammable gases or vapours may be present.

Technical Support

Hazardous areas where flammable gases or vapours may create an explosive atmosphere require pumping equipment specifically designed and certified for the applicable area classification. Pump selection must consider both the hydraulic duty and the hazardous-area requirements of the installation.

Tsurumi's HSX and KTX explosion-proof drainage pumps provide solutions for water removal in hazardous environments, with KTX extending into heavier-duty drainage applications. Where the pumped liquid contains abrasive slurry or settled solids, the KRDX explosion-proof slurry range combines hazardous-area capability with robust slurry handling. Final pump selection should always be matched to the required flow, head, liquid characteristics and applicable explosion-protection classification.
