What type of hazard does Hazard Class 2 Division 2 material present?
There are two unrelated hazard classification systems that have categories called "Class 2 Division 2" One is the NFPA system for designating explosive environments. The other is the DOT system for classifying materials that are hazardous in transportation. In the NFPA system for explosive environments, Class 2 locations are hazardous because of the presence of combustible (explosive) dust. Class 2, Division 2 locations are places in which combustible dusts will not normally be in suspension in the air, or will not be likely to be thrown into suspension by the normal operation of equipment or apparatus, in quantities sufficient to produce explosive or ignitable mixtures, but where accumulations of dust may be sufficient to interfere with the safe dissipation of heat from electrical equipment or apparatus, or where accumulations of dust on, in, or in the vicinity of electrical equipment might be ignited by arcs, sparks, or burning material from such equipment In the DOT system for hazardous materials in transportation, Class 2 is for compressed and poisonous gases. Class 2, Division 2 (also called Division 2.2 ) is for non-flammable compressed gases.
