Gentle experts, there’s an urgent issue related to explosion prevention in wastewater treatment!

Guys, I have a pretty urgent question! In the petrochemical refining industry, there are specialized wastewater treatment facilities on site. We would like to purchase a shallow air flotation unit with an integrated control cabinet. Is it necessary for this control cabinet to be explosion-proof? I asked a few people, and they said that an area 15 meters away from the oil separation tank is not considered an explosion-proof zone. Is this correct?

That makes sense; the control cabinets that come with the shallow air flotation units I’ve seen are ordinary ones.

The main issue is whether regional division is feasible; is that a shallow air flotation unit used in petrochemical wastewater treatment plants what you see there? How far is it from the oil separator?

It’s not a petrochemical wastewater treatment plant. 20 meters away from the oil separator.

That’s different; ask the design institute – the entire area falls within the explosion-proof zone.

It’s really impressive; there don’t seem to be any detailed regulations in this regard. . . . . . . ambiguous
