Explosion proof starters, also known as explosion proof starters or hazardous location starters, are electrical devices used to control the operation of motors or other electrical equipment in environments where there is a risk of explosion due to the presence of flammable gases, vapors, liquids, or combustible dust. These starters are designed to prevent electrical sparks or arcs from igniting the surrounding explosive atmosphere. Explosion proof starters are built with specialized enclosures that can contain any potential explosion within the enclosure, preventing it from igniting the surrounding hazardous atmosphere. These enclosures are typically constructed using heavy duty materials that can withstand the forces of an explosion. Explosion proof starters are commonly used in industries such as oil and gas, petrochemicals, mining, chemical processing, and manufacturing, where there is a high risk of explosion due to the nature of the materials being handled.
