SVEX-EX-CD Explosion Proof Dome Housing for Hazardous Environments
The SVEX-EX-CD Explosion Proof Dome Housing is a purpose-built protective enclosure engineered to shield sensitive video surveillance equipment and electrical components in high-risk environments. Constructed from industrial-grade stainless steel and certified to operate in areas with explosive gases or combustible dust, this dome-style housing ensures optimal protection in petrochemical facilities, offshore rigs, grain processing plants, and other classified hazardous zones.
Certified Protection in Hazard Zones
Designed to meet the stringent safety demands of hazardous locations, the SVEX-EX-CD carries an ATEX Ex d IIC T6 Gb explosion-proof marking and features a NEMA-6P / IP68-rated enclosure. This classification ensures the housing is fully sealed against dust ingress and capable of withstanding prolonged submersion under pressure, making it ideal for both onshore and offshore applications.
Tested under extreme conditions, this unit is suitable for ambient temperatures ranging from -30 °C to 70 °C (-22 °F to 158 °F) and atmospheric pressures between 80 kPa and 106 kPa (11.6 PSI to 15.37 PSI). Its wide environmental tolerance allows for year-round deployment in freezing, humid, dusty, or high-heat industrial settings.
Corrosion-Resistant Stainless Steel Design
Manufactured from 304 or 316L stainless steel, the SVEX-EX-CD is built to resist corrosion from saltwater, chemicals, or abrasive materials, extending the service life of the equipment it houses. Its smooth dome profile reduces buildup of contaminants and facilitates easy cleaning during routine maintenance.
The internal cavity measures 176 mm × 195 mm (6.9 in × 7.7 in), offering generous space for cameras, sensors, or other electronics. With a total weight of 11 kg (24.3 lb) and external dimensions of 240 mm × 357 mm (9.4 in × 14.1 in), this housing balances protection with compact form factor for convenient integration across a variety of industrial setups.
The threaded outlet hole (G-1/2-inch) provides secure conduit connection, enabling safe wiring practices while maintaining explosion-proof integrity.
Built for Hazardous Area Integration
The SVEX-EX-CD is engineered specifically for use in explosive gas and combustible dust environments. Its rugged build and certified design make it a trusted choice for:
-
Zone 1 and Zone 2 classified gas environments
-
Zone 21 and Zone 22 combustible dust atmospheres
-
Indoor and outdoor hazardous area monitoring
-
Chemical processing and manufacturing sites
-
Fuel depots, tank farms, and storage yards
-
Oil and gas extraction, refining, and transport sites
Whether installed as a standalone protective housing or paired with a Veilux explosion-proof camera module, the SVEX-EX-CD enables safe deployment of critical surveillance or sensing equipment in high-risk environments.
Seamless Integration & Maintenance
Engineers and installers benefit from a design that simplifies installation and long-term upkeep. Its non-condensing humidity tolerance up to 95% ensures internal visibility and operational stability. The compact, unified housing helps reduce external interference and mechanical damage, making it suitable for both fixed-position and PTZ camera applications (depending on internal equipment compatibility).
The IP68 and NEMA-6P protection ratings reflect its performance under water ingress conditions, ideal for locations where water spray, hose-down cleaning, or heavy rainfall are part of routine operations.
