Electric Explosion Proof Forklift (2G) 
Ex-tec 2G is Pyroban's Zone 1 solution for electric forklift trucks and warehouse equipment, combining various explosion protection methods.
Conversion, testing and certification take place at Pyroban factories ensuring the equipment is ATEX 94/9/EC compliant* or compliant to local regulations, such as GB19854-2005 in China.
All ignition sources are protected so that the forklift truck is safe to operate in the presence of a flammable atmosphere. It is a passive system and does not detect a gas or vapour.
Ex-tec 2G explosion proof conversions usually refer to EU standard EN1755:2000+A1:2009 and are suitable for the latest counterbalance forklift trucks, pallet, stacker and reach trucks and order pickers, typically including:
Explosion proof Ex’d’ enclosures for arcing and sparking components - Surface temperature limitation to ensure the motors, brakes, electrics and other components remain below the autoignition temperatures (T Class) of flammable materials.
- Frame leakage monitoring
- Stainless steel cladding of the forks
- Ex’d’ motors
- Ex’e’ motors
- Ex’i’ intrinsically safe circuits
- Ex’m’ encapsulation
- Ex’e’ battery fitted with Ex’d’ plugs and sockets
