Possibly explosive gas mixtures, steams, gauze, or dirt clouds are effected as a co-product of processes in many industrial sectors. These include the medication and chymic industry, the presswork and paper sectors, as well as other areas such as grain or saccharide processing. In these companies, intralogistics trucks must assure the maximum level of explosion protection in order to avoid accidents.
GOODSENSE forklift therefore offers plenty counterbalanced trucks, reach trucks, pallet stackers and pallet trucks in explosion-proof 'Ex' versions, meaning that the entire material flow in a company can be carried out under explosion-proof conditions. Components which could produce sparking, such as drive components, wheels or even lifting forks, are protected through surface treatment.
In addition, the surface temperature of individual truck components is conducted in order to prevent overheating. Despite this additional equipment, the explosion proof internal combustion forklift trucks keep up the cost-effectiveness, handling performance, and ergonomic design that GOODSENSE is known for.
Standard-Compliant in Hazard Zones
The legal requirements for explosion protection are constantly being developed and normal. It is important to carry out these rapidly and properly. All explosion-proof versions of GOODSENSE trucks and warehousing equipment meet with the most latest lawmaking, as does the documentation associated with them. They comply with the EU regulations on the use of equipment in possibly explosive environment (EN 1755) and the ATEX Directives 2014/34/EU.
The use of harmonized standards in the development process ensures CE conformity.
