Explosion Proof for Hazardous Industrial Areas
This explosion proof is ATEX and IECEx certified for Class I Division 1 and Zone 1 hazardous locations including oil and gas refineries, chemical plants, and offshore platforms. Designed to contain any internal ignition and prevent it from igniting surrounding flammable atmospheres.
SVEX-171-Z Explosion Proof Industrial Monitor for Hazardous Worksites
The SVEX-171-Z Explosion Proof Industrial Monitor is a heavy-duty display system engineered for use in explosive gas or dust environments. Built to meet the stringent requirements of industrial workspaces such as refineries, chemical plants, and manufacturing zones, this monitor delivers clear visual output within a rugged, fully sealed enclosure. Its high-brightness screen, flexible connectivity, and robust protection make it the ideal solution for on-site monitoring, control panels, or surveillance system interfaces.
Certified Safety and Rugged Construction
Certified with Ex d IIB T6 Gb / Ex tD A21 IP68 T80ºC explosion proof ratings, the SVEX-171-Z is designed to operate safely in environments where flammable gases, vapors, or dusts may be present. Whether deployed in Zone 1 or 2 gas areas or Zone 21 dust environments, it provides dependable performance while minimizing ignition risk.
This unit features a choice of carbon steel or stainless steel 304/316L housing, offering versatility based on your environmental corrosion exposure. Its IP68 protection rating ensures complete sealing against dust and long-term submersion in water, crucial for high-particulate or washdown environments.
For added safety and longevity, the SVEX-171-Z supports optional surge protection (TVS6000V) to guard against electrical disturbances in high-risk zones.
High-Performance Visual Display
This industrial monitor is built not only for durability but for visual clarity. Key display features include:
White Luminance: 400cd/m² for daylight visibility
Contrast Ratio: 600:1 for detailed imaging in low-light or high-glare conditions
Color Depth: 16.7 million colors
Optical Response Time: 40ms (typical on/off)
These specs make the SVEX-171-Z perfect for real-time monitoring, diagnostics, or control panel viewing where image fidelity and rapid response are essential.
Broad Connectivity and Integration Options
The SVEX-171-Z supports multiple connector port types to suit your setup:
HDMI – for high-resolution digital signals
VGA – for compatibility with legacy systems
BNC – for analog surveillance or signal input
It comes with a 2-meter integrated cable for secure internal wiring and offers flexible thread hole options including 4pcs G3/4, NPT3/4, or M25 x 1.5, making integration simple across various enclosure systems or installations.
Built for Extreme Conditions
This explosion proof industrial monitor is designed to endure a wide range of environmental extremes:
Operating Temperature: -25°C to +60°C (or extended -45°C to +80°C)
Air Pressure: 80kPa to 106kPa
Relative Humidity: ≤95% (non-condensing)
Its RoHS compliance ensures the unit is free of hazardous substances, aligning with modern environmental and safety standards.
Ideal ApplicationsÂ
The SVEX-171-Z is engineered for fixed installation in volatile, high-risk zones where real-time video or system data must be displayed. Ideal use cases include:
Offshore and onshore oil & gas facilities
Chemical and pharmaceutical manufacturing plants
Dust-prone areas like mills and mining operations
Hazardous location control rooms or production displays
Surveillance control interfaces in explosion proof zones
Whether used as part of a command center or for localized monitoring, this explosion proof display ensures uninterrupted operation where standard monitors cannot be deployed.

All equipment in this category meets the rigorous safety requirements for classified hazardous locations. Independent certification to ATEX, IECEx, and UL standards verifies that each unit has been tested for use in explosive atmospheres found in petrochemical facilities, offshore platforms, grain handling operations, and chemical processing plants. These certifications are renewed on a defined schedule to reflect any design changes and to maintain compliance with evolving international standards.
Proper product selection depends on your site classification, mounting requirements, and operating environment. Class I Division 1 and Zone 1 environments demand the highest level of enclosure protection, while Division 2 and Zone 2 locations may permit designs with a lower protection level. Working with a certified hazardous-area specialist before finalising your specification helps ensure the installation meets both local electrical codes and applicable international standards without over-specifying the hardware.
