Training by TONEX Intrinsic Safety Training by
TONEX covers all aspects of Intrinsic safety
principals and prevention techniques and methods
to avoid and prevent explosions from occurring.
Learn about Intrinsic Safety  ATEX Directives,
IECEx, NEX,CSA, MSHA and OSHA guidelines and how
to ensure that the energy transferred to a
hazardous area and location is controlled and is
well below the levels to trigger an
explosion. Intrinsically Safe (I.S.) is usually
used as a term to describe products destined for
a possible explosive area. Intrinsically Safe
(IS) and Nonincendive are also  referring to
protection levels for safe operation of
electronic equipment in various explosive
atmospheres. The hazardous location ratings are
also divided into Class, Division, and Group to
indicate the existence of flammable gases or
vapors, ignitable dust, fibers, or filings under
normal or unlikely conditions of operation to be
used in safe operation in hazardous areas,
particularly around petro-chemicals, flammable
gasses and dusts.

Why use TONEX for intrinsic safety
training? Intrinsic Safety Training course is
designed to teach you how to plan, analyze,
design, test, verify  validate,  and document
effectively, and get ready certification. Intrins
ic safety is considered as a requirement that may
be applicable to devices that are being operated
in areas with flammable gases or fuels. An
intrinsically safe piece of equipment wont
ignite flammable gases.
