Hazardous Area Position Switches

Hazardous Area Position Switches for IECEx Installations

Inatex supplies IECEx-certified hazardous area position switches designed for use in Zone 1 and Zone 2 explosive atmospheres across Australia. These explosion proof and Ex-rated switching devices provide reliable position and limit detection in industrial environments including oil & gas, mining, marine and heavy process facilities.

Hazardous area position switches are typically installed to monitor mechanical movement, valve position or equipment status while maintaining enclosure integrity and compliance with IECEx certification requirements. Devices are manufactured to Ex d or Ex e protection concepts and must be selected based on temperature classification, ingress protection rating and site-specific operating conditions.

Position switches are commonly integrated within a broader hazardous area control equipment system alongside control stations and switching assemblies. For related products, refer to our hazardous area control equipment category.

IECEx Solar Panels: New Possibilities for Remote Hazardous Area Power

Australia’s industrial facilities are often separated by distance. Across oil and gas, resources, processing and infrastructure projects, relatively small electrical loads can be located hundreds of metres, or sometimes considerably further, from an established power supply. Providing power to remote equipment can therefore require significantly more infrastructure than the load
