A leading chemical manufacturing plant in China specializes in producing volatile substances, including flammable chemicals and solvents. The facility's production lines require continuous movement of goods and personnel between various hazardous areas, such as mixing rooms, storage zones, and packaging sections.
Solution: Installation of Explosion-Proof Rapid Doors
The client installed 5 sets of explosion-proof rapid roll-up doors at the entrances to high-risk areas. The doors were designed with the following features:
Explosion-proof curtain material made from flame-retardant, anti-static PVC fabric
ATEX-rated motors to prevent ignition in explosive atmospheres
Self-closing mechanism with adjustable speed to ensure airtight sealing
Automatic sensors and safety light curtains for contactless operation and added security
Key Advantages of Explosion-Proof Rapid Doors in the Chemical Industry
Enhanced Explosion Protection
The explosion-proof doors are built to meet ATEX (European ATmospheres EXplosibles) standards, providing increased protection against ignition in volatile environments. The anti-static curtain material prevents sparks from triggering an explosion.
Prevents Hazardous Contamination
By ensuring a tight seal when closed, these doors help to contain volatile chemicals, preventing them from escaping into other areas of the plant and reducing the risk of contamination.
High-Speed, Efficient Access
The fast opening and closing speed (up to 1.5 m/s) allow for rapid movement of goods and personnel while maintaining safety standards, optimizing plant operations without compromising safety.
