ATEX-approved nylon cable protection solution
PMA has launched what it believes to be the world’s first ATEX-approved nylon-based cable protection system for use in potentially hazardous environments
With nylon systems revolutionising cable protection in a range of industries - from infrastructure and traction to power and construction - the flexible but durable qualities of PMA’s polyamide products present a range of benefits, including easier installation.
Although nylon proves itself in a number of areas, the material presented a problem when it came to being used in hazardous environments, due to a standard nylon’s trait of building up a static charge in chemically reactive environments or when fine particles are present in the air.
PMA developed a modified, electrical discharging material, the Ex-system range which will not act as an ignition source. A variety of fittings make it suitable for going around corners, and it can be adapted to suit any application even in dusty environments such as flour and paper mills.
