ALL ABOUT EXPLOSION PROTECTION
- Hazardous Area industries require competent people being active in all levels. Competency has to be shown both on theoretical and practical level.
- Competency is not just one time exercise, it has to be refreshed in every 3‐5 years to comply latest industry regulations and trends.
- Hazardous Area Competency shall be the basis for both electrical and non‐electrical explosion protection.
- Hazardous Area Competency is an add on to one's basic knowledge of being electrician or mechanical (further education).
- We can talk about units of Ex competencies, but all are related to one's position on site incl. daily routine duties.
Introducing RACS-EX
Excellence in explosion protection & local experience in one place.

Ex is our profession.
Training
Ex personnel competency (ExPC) is an important badge of all on site. ExPC is a further education, shall be based on existing electrical, instrumentation and machinery skills, including work safety, HSE, project management. Level awareness, technician, supervisor, designer and further service facilities (repair, maintenance, installation and hazardous area classification) are addressed here.
Ex lifetime tracking (ExLT)
All Ex installations and Ex documentations shall comply lifetime long with requirements of own Ex certifications, site requirements. Identification of assets and documentations shall be a good basis ExLT. For identification of assets we do recommend to use our RFID technology.
