Explosive Atmosphere Testing
National Technical Systems (NTS)
Will your product operate in a highly volatile environment without creating ignition and causing an explosion? Explosive atmosphere testing provides vital information about motors, lighting systems, bilge pumps, aircraft components, electronics, and other systems. Explosive atmosphere testing determines whether a product will be able to operate properly in a fuel contaminated, highly volatile environment without creating ignition and causing an explosion. Causes of ignition vary from tiny electrical arcs in battery-operated equipment to hot spots on surfaces of sealed, encased units, to sparks from other mechanical sources.
