This document is under the jurisdiction of SAC/TC 9 National Technical Committee on Explosion Protected Electrical Apparatus of Standardization Administration of China. The previous editions of this document are as follows: ——GB 3836.9, which was issued in 1990 for the first time, first revised in 2006 and second revised in 2014; ——GB 12476.6, which was issued for the first time in 2010.   Introduction GB/T 3835 Explosive atmospheres is prepared in order to establish the basic technical requirements for equipment used in explosive atmospheres and its application, covering the design, manufacture, inspection, selection, installation, inspection, maintenance, repair and site classification of equipment used in explosive atmospheres, and adopts the form of partial standards, including but not limited to the following parts: ——Part 1: Equipment—General requirements; ——Part 2: Equipment protection by flameproof enclosures “d”; ——Part 3: Equipment protection by increased safety “e”; ——Part 4: Equipment protection by intrinsic safety "i"; ——Part 5: Equipment protection by pressurized enclosure “p”; ——Part 6: Equipment protection by oil immersion “o”; ——Part 7: Equipment protection by powder filling “q”; ——Part 8: Equipment protection by type of protection “n”; ——Part 9: Equipment protection by type of protection “m”; ——Part 11: Material characteristics for gas and vapour classification—Test methods and data; ——Part 12: Material characteristics for combustible dusts—Test methods; ——Part 13: Equipment repair, overhaul and reclamation; ——Part 14: Classification of areas - Explosive gas atmosphere; ——Part 15: Electrical installations design, selection and erection; ——Part 16: Electrical installations inspection and maintenance; ——Part 17: Equipment protection by pressurized room “p” and artificially ventilated room “v”; ——Part 18: Intrinsically safe electrical systems; ——Part 20: Equipment with equipment protection level (EPL) Ga; ——Part 21: Application of quality systems for equipment manufacture; ——Part 22: Protection of equipment and transmission system using optical radiation; ——Part 23: Group I, category EPL Ma equipment intended to remain functional in atmospheres endangered by firedamp and/or coal dust; ——Part 24: Equipment protection by special protection “s”; ——Part 25: Requirements for process sealing between flammable process fluids and electrical systems; ——Part 26: Electrostatic hazards—Guidance; ——Part 27: Electrostatic hazards—Test; ——Part 28: Non-electrical equipment for potentially explosive atmospheres—Basic method and requirements; ——Part 29: Non-electrical equipment for explosive atmospheres—Constructional safety “c”, control of ignition source “b”, liquid immersion “k”; ——Part 30: Equipment and components in explosive atmospheres in underground mines; ——Part 31: Equipment dust ignition protection by enclosure “t”; ——Part 32: Intrinsically safe systems with electronically controlled spark duration limitation; ——Part 33: Equipment in adverse service conditions; ——Part 34: Equipment assemblies; ——Part 35: Classification of areas for explosive dust atmospheres; Encapsulation "m" is an important explosion protection type. In terms of standardization of this technology, China formulated GB 3836.9-1990 on encapsulation type for explosive gas atmospheres with reference to IEC documents in 1990, and then revised it twice with IEC 60079-18 in 2006 and 2014; in 2010, IEC 61241-18 was adopted to formulate GB 12476.6-2010 on encapsulation type for combustible dust atmospheres. Since the release and implementation of the above standards, there has been a certain new development in encapsulated explosion protection technology. In terms of international standards, the current edition of the corresponding standard is IEC 60079-18: 2014, and its main technical contents may also be applied to China. GB 3836.9 needs to be revised and GB 12476.6 needs to be integrated in order to adapt to the development of explosion protection technology and industry and conform to the development of international standards. On the basis of adopting the main technical contents of IEC 60079-18: 2014, Explosive atmospheres—Part 18: Equipment protection by encapsulation “m”, this revision has made appropriate modifications to adapt to the specific conditions of China. This document is a supplement and modification to the general requirements of GB/T 3836.1 as a part of specific explosion protection type. Explosive atmospheres—Part 9: Equipment protection by encapsulation “m” 1 Scope This document gives the specific requirements for the construction, testing and marking of electrical equipment, parts of electrical equipment and Ex components with the type of protection encapsulation “m” intended for use in explosive gas atmospheres or explosive dust atmospheres. This document is applicable to encapsulated electrical equipment, encapsulated parts of electrical equipment and encapsulated Ex components (hereinafter always referred to as “m” equipment) where the rated voltage does not exceed 11 kV. The application of electrical equipment in atmospheres, which may contain explosive gas as well as combustible dust simultaneously, may require additional protective measures. This document is not applicable to dusts of explosives, which do not require atmospheric oxygen for combustion, or to pyrophoric substances. This document does not take account of any risk due to an emission of flammable or toxic gas from the dust. This document supplements and modifies the general requirements of GB/T 3836.1. Where a requirement of this document conflicts with a requirement of GB/T 3836.1, the requirement of this document will take precedence. 2 Normative references The following documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this document.

The previous editions of this document are as follows: ——GB 3836.9, which was issued in 1990 for the first time, first revised in 2006 and second revised in 2014; ——GB 12476.6, which was issued for the first time in 2010.   Introduction GB/T 3835 Explosive atmospheres is prepared in order to establish the basic technical requirements for equipment used in explosive atmospheres and its application, covering the design, manufacture, inspection, selection, installation, inspection, maintenance, repair and site classification of equipment used in explosive atmospheres, and adopts the form of partial standards, including but not limited to the following parts: ——Part 1: Equipment—General requirements; ——Part 2: Equipment protection by flameproof enclosures “d”; ——Part 3: Equipment protection by increased safety “e”; ——Part 4: Equipment protection by intrinsic safety "i"; ——Part 5: Equipment protection by pressurized enclosure “p”; ——Part 6: Equipment protection by oil immersion “o”; ——Part 7: Equipment protection by powder filling “q”; ——Part 8: Equipment protection by type of protection “n”; ——Part 9: Equipment protection by type of protection “m”; ——Part 11: Material characteristics for gas and vapour classification—Test methods and data; ——Part 12: Material characteristics for combustible dusts—Test methods; ——Part 13: Equipment repair, overhaul and reclamation; ——Part 14: Classification of areas - Explosive gas atmosphere; ——Part 15: Electrical installations design, selection and erection; ——Part 16: Electrical installations inspection and maintenance; ——Part 17: Equipment protection by pressurized room “p” and artificially ventilated room “v”; ——Part 18: Intrinsically safe electrical systems; ——Part 20: Equipment with equipment protection level (EPL) Ga; ——Part 21: Application of quality systems for equipment manufacture; ——Part 22: Protection of equipment and transmission system using optical radiation; ——Part 23: Group I, category EPL Ma equipment intended to remain functional in atmospheres endangered by firedamp and/or coal dust; ——Part 24: Equipment protection by special protection “s”; ——Part 25: Requirements for process sealing between flammable process fluids and electrical systems; ——Part 26: Electrostatic hazards—Guidance; ——Part 27: Electrostatic hazards—Test; ——Part 28: Non-electrical equipment for potentially explosive atmospheres—Basic method and requirements; ——Part 29: Non-electrical equipment for explosive atmospheres—Constructional safety “c”, control of ignition source “b”, liquid immersion “k”; ——Part 30: Equipment and components in explosive atmospheres in underground mines; ——Part 31: Equipment dust ignition protection by enclosure “t”; ——Part 32: Intrinsically safe systems with electronically controlled spark duration limitation; ——Part 33: Equipment in adverse service conditions; ——Part 34: Equipment assemblies; ——Part 35: Classification of areas for explosive dust atmospheres; Encapsulation "m" is an important explosion protection type. In terms of standardization of this technology, China formulated GB 3836.9-1990 on encapsulation type for explosive gas atmospheres with reference to IEC documents in 1990, and then revised it twice with IEC 60079-18 in 2006 and 2014; in 2010, IEC 61241-18 was adopted to formulate GB 12476.6-2010 on encapsulation type for combustible dust atmospheres. Since the release and implementation of the above standards, there has been a certain new development in encapsulated explosion protection technology. In terms of international standards, the current edition of the corresponding standard is IEC 60079-18: 2014, and its main technical contents may also be applied to China. GB 3836.9 needs to be revised and GB 12476.6 needs to be integrated in order to adapt to the development of explosion protection technology and industry and conform to the development of international standards. On the basis of adopting the main technical contents of IEC 60079-18: 2014, Explosive atmospheres—Part 18: Equipment protection by encapsulation “m”, this revision has made appropriate modifications to adapt to the specific conditions of China. This document is a supplement and modification to the general requirements of GB/T 3836.1 as a part of specific explosion protection type. Explosive atmospheres—Part 9: Equipment protection by encapsulation “m” 1 Scope This document gives the specific requirements for the construction, testing and marking of electrical equipment, parts of electrical equipment and Ex components with the type of protection encapsulation “m” intended for use in explosive gas atmospheres or explosive dust atmospheres. This document is applicable to encapsulated electrical equipment, encapsulated parts of electrical equipment and encapsulated Ex components (hereinafter always referred to as “m” equipment) where the rated voltage does not exceed 11 kV. The application of electrical equipment in atmospheres, which may contain explosive gas as well as combustible dust simultaneously, may require additional protective measures. This document is not applicable to dusts of explosives, which do not require atmospheric oxygen for combustion, or to pyrophoric substances. This document does not take account of any risk due to an emission of flammable or toxic gas from the dust. This document supplements and modifies the general requirements of GB/T 3836.1. Where a requirement of this document conflicts with a requirement of GB/T 3836.1, the requirement of this document will take precedence. 2 Normative references The following documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this document.
