The system delivered safe and reliable performance while complying with relevant industry standards and site requirements. The unit was certified to Ex II 2G IIB T4, ensuring suitability for hazardous-area applications.

ATEX Zone 2: An explosive atmosphere may not normally occur during normal operation, but could occur occasionally/for a limited time.
