1 Better By Every Measure Ref: ID1002 , CorDEX Instruments Ltd. 2010 Understanding the technologyIntrinsic Safety the basicsThe term Intrinsically Safe ( ) is frequently used to describe any product destined for an explosive area. In reality, is a protection concept based around limiting the available electrical energy to nonincendive levels so that sparks cannot occur from short circuit or failures which could cause an explosive atmosphere to ignite. A typical fixed circuit would comprise a device such as a temperature sensor permanently located within the explosive area, which is in turn protected by a safety barrier located in the safe area. These barriers usually incorporate a series of diodes, resistors and fuses arranged and sized in such a manner that they limit the energy provided to the device in the field.
