Explosive atmospheres - Part 28: Protection of equipment and transmission systems using optical radiation

IEC 60079-28:2025 specifies additional requirements for Ex Equipment, Ex associated equipment or Ex Components containing optical systems emitting optical radiation, which is exposed to explosive atmospheres. These additional requirements are applicable for all equipment groups and all Equipment Protection Levels (EPL).
This document contains requirements for optical radiation in the wavelength range from 380 nm to 10 µm. It covers the following ignition mechanisms:
• Optical radiation is absorbed by surfaces or particles, causing them to heat up, and under certain circumstances this might allow them to attain a temperature which will ignite a surrounding explosive atmosphere.
• In rare special cases, direct laser induced breakdown of the gas at the focus of a strong beam, producing plasma and a shock wave both eventually acting as ignition source. These processes can be supported by a solid material close to the breakdown point.
• Annex A provides guidance when considering ignition mechanisms that influence the hazard of optics in explosive atmospheres.
This document applies to
a) laser equipment; and
b) optical fibre equipment; and
c) any optical system that converts light into convergent beams with focal points within the hazardous area only.
This document does not apply to:
d) laser equipment for EPL Mb, Gb, Gc, Db or Dc applications which complies with Class 1 limits in accordance with IEC 60825-1; or
e) Single or multiple optical fibre cables not part of optical fibre equipment if the cables:
1) comply with the relevant industrial standards for optical fibre cables, along with additional protective means, for example robust cabling, conduit or raceway (for EPL Gb, Db, Mb, Gc or Dc); or
2) comply with the relevant industrial standards for optical fibre cables (for EPL Gc or Dc); or
f) Optical radiation sources as defined in i) to iii) above where the optical radiation is fully contained in an enclosure complying with one of the following Types of Protection suitable for the EPL, or the minimum ingress protection rating specified:
1) flameproof "d" enclosures (IEC 60079-1); or
2) pressurized "p" enclosures (IEC 60079-2); or
3) restricted breathing "nR" enclosure (IEC 60079-15); or
4) dust protection "t" enclosures" (IEC 60079-31); or
5) an enclosure that provides a minimum ingress protection of IP 6X and where no internal absorbers are to be expected and complying with "Tests of enclosures" in IEC 60079-0.
This document does not cover ignition by ultraviolet radiation and by absorption of the radiation in the explosive mixture itself. Explosive absorbers or absorbers that contain their own oxidizer as well as catalytic absorbers are also outside the scope of this document.
This document supplements and modifies the general requirements of IEC 60079-0. Where a requirement of this document conflicts with a requirement of IEC 60079-0, the requirement of this document takes precedence.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2015. This edition constitutes a technical revision

This document applies only to the ignition systems or the individual ignition system components used on reciprocating internal combustion engines that are stationary when in operation and mobile machinery where the internal combustion engine can be potential source of ignition. Applications addressed by the scope of this document include but are not limited to gas compressors, electric power generators, forklift trucks, and pumps.
This document does not apply to:
a) Engine ignition systems that utilize a breaker point or magneto type ignition systems as these would not be suitable for use in a hazardous area.
b) Road vehicles.
c) Low voltage parts and electrical installation that are not included in the ignition system, such as various sensors and thermocouples, throttle actuator(s), fuel control valve(s), human machine interface (HMI), respective harness and wiring and all the other items that might belong to the integrated control system besides the ignition system.
This document supplements and modifies the general requirements of IEC 60079-0 and the requirements of ISO/IEC 80079-41. Where a requirement of this document conflicts with IEC 60079 0 or ISO/IEC 80079-41, the requirement of this document takes precedence.

Explosive atmospheres - Part 44: Personal competence

IEC TS 60079-44:2023, which is a Technical Specification, is to provide guidance to establish recommended minimum criteria to determine roles, establish expectations of the necessary skills and evidence of competence to assess and manage the competence of personnel conducting work in or associated with hazardous areas. The purpose of this document is to provide guidance to establish:
• recommended minimum criteria to determine roles,
• expectations of the necessary skills, and
• evidence of competence
in order to assess and manage the competence of personnel who are conducting work in or associated with hazardous areas.
This document provides examples and recommendations of minimum levels of competence for typical roles associated with hazardous areas by addressing the knowledge, skills, or abilities that is expected of personnel. Additionally, examples of the evidence of competence expected for each role are provided.
The aim of tThis document is to assist in defining, assessing, and managing unique requirements for the competence of individuals working in or associated with installations where an explosive atmosphere could be present. Such a programme could be specific to a facility or used in conjunction with other regulatory requirements where they exist. The competencies for conducting work in a hazardous area are in addition to any competencies which may apply for the general type of work being undertaken (for example, professional credentials, electrical, non-electrical, operations, design).
This document applies to both electrical and non-electrical applications.
This document identifies the minimum level of knowledge and skills required to work in hazardous areas and the specific competence required for work associated with equipment for explosive atmospheres (commonly termed ‘Ex Equipment’) and the standards to which competence is to be assessed and attributed.
The purpose of this document is to provide guidance to establish:
• recommended minimum criteria to determine roles,
• expectations of the necessary skills, and
• evidence of competence
The principal application of this specification document is for personnel dealing with explosion-protected and associated equipment for use in explosive atmospheres, including the following work functions:
• Classification of areas;
• Producing, processing or servicing functions in a hazardous area and not directly involved in installing, maintaining or repairing explosion-protected equipment and systems;
• Designing, commissioning and maintaining explosion-protection strategies and equipment;
• Selecting, installing, testing and maintaining explosion-protected equipment and systems in hazardous areas;
• Inspecting hazardous area equipment, systems and installations;
• Overhauling, repairing and modifying explosion-protected equipment;
• Management of the Ex aspects of the facility.
