These are carried out visually, up close, and in detail, in accordance with IEC 60079-17.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even a perfectly installed explosion-proof system can lose its protective properties over time due to corrosion, vibration, moisture, and unauthorized modifications. This loss progresses imperceptibly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The only mechanism that proves a facility remains as safe in the fifth year as it was on the first day is periodic inspection. This also guarantees the validity of the Explosion Protection Document.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is done during a periodic inspection?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Visual, close and detailed inspection levels (IEC 60079-17)<\/li><li>Verification of protection type (Ex d, e, i, t) integrity.<\/li><li>Cable glands, gaskets and leak test.<\/li><li>Grounding, labeling, and detection of improper modifications.<\/li><li>Reporting of findings and corrective recommendations.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Three Inspection Levels<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">IEC 60079-17 categorizes inspections into three levels based on their depth. Visual inspection involves identifying external defects (broken, loose screws, missing gaskets) without disconnecting power or using instruments. Close inspection is more detailed, using tools such as ladders, but without opening the equipment. Detailed inspection involves disconnecting power to the equipment, opening the covers, and testing the internal piping for moisture, corrosion, and malfunctioning protections using instruments. The inspection period and level are determined according to the risk level and environmental conditions of the area; severe conditions require more frequent and deeper inspections. AES is authorized to conduct these inspections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Legal Framework and Assessment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Periodic inspections of explosion-proof structures are mandatory under IEC 60079-17 and explosive atmosphere regulations; these inspections are carried out by authorized personnel and documented in a report prepared by them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How often are explosion-proof checks performed?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Determined on a risk-based approach; at intervals not exceeding three years after the initial examination, and more frequently in severe conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is visual examination sufficient?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No; internal corrosion and deteriorated protection can only be detected through a detailed inspection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How is control related to PKD?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Regular inspections are necessary to maintain the validity of the Explosion Protection Document.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Periodic Ex-Proof Inspections \u2014 Authorized Engineering Service<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For detailed information <a href=\"https:\/\/aesinn.com\/en\/patlayici-ortam-ekipmanlari\/\">Explosive Atmosphere (ATEX\/Ex-Proof) Inspections<\/a> Please review our page for the legal framework. <a href=\"https:\/\/aesinn.com\/en\/is-ekipmanlari-periyodik-kontrol-zorunlu-mu\/\">mandatory periodic inspection<\/a> Check our guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\"><div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/aesinn.com\/en\/iletisim\/\">Get a free quote \u00bb<\/a><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>K\u0131sa yan\u0131t: Periyodik Ex-proof kontroller, patlay\u0131c\u0131 ortamlardaki elektrik tesisat ve ekipmanlar\u0131n\u0131n zaman i\u00e7inde g\u00fcvenli kalmaya devam etti\u011fini do\u011frulayan muayenelerdir.
