Explosion Protections for
Oil & Gas sector
Petrochemical plants, Oil rings, etc.
could be explosive environment!
The Oil&Gas sector On/Off-shore, petrochemical industries, oil rigs etc… all locations in which an engine or a mobile vehicle must work in safety. The consequences might otherwise be catastrophic. In these fields, the risk of explosions is high, due to the frequent presence of flammable gases and vapors, fibers or dust, in the surrounding air.
The extraction, transportation and processing of highly flammable materials can create a great risk for the workers, especially due to the fact that these operations often take place in remote environments and the access to emergency services can be limited. So, the use of explosion-proof equipment is a regulatory requirement, in order to avoid or reduce the risk, protecting both personnel and infrastructure.
Miretti can convert both industrial and marine engines, collaborating closely with the major OEMs. Typical processes on a diesel engine include interventions on the inlet and exhaust lines, insulation of hot surfaces, cooling of exhaust gases, encapsulation of sparking components, antistatic treatment of some surfaces.
Miretti Group can convert any engine, working independently, and can support our customers around the world thanks to our thorough knowledge of the regulations.
Here we only remember some brands: Caterpillar, Cummins, Atlas Copco, Volvo, Deutz, Perkins, MTU, John Deere, JCB, FPT etc…
Miretti Group can provide Engine Ex Systems and Services for Zone 2 Atex compliant Kits, Class I Div. 1-2 Ex Solutions Electrical Systems, Tier 4 Engines Ex Technology, IECEx. Complete projects build including Ex testing and third-party certification is available through Miretti factories in USA, Europe, Singapore, China.

Many innovative solutions are part of the Miretti Explosion-Proof world. Amongst these is the FilterEx which is a certified system that is compact, ergonomic, and self-cleaning. It is a single component that reduces exhaust gas temperature, extinguishes the flame and spark, and reduces pollution. It is the evolution of the dry flame arrester, which also includes a heat exchanger. The patented CoatEx system provides a thermal barrier between the hot surfaces of the engine and the external atmosphere. It plays a crucial role in controlling heat release and limiting surface temperatures.
are mandatory
“Can an engine work in safety in areas classified as hazardous?” The answer is yes. Diesel engines and industrial equipment in Oil&Gas field, could be a potential source of ignition. So, they must be explosion proof protected.
We work independently and can support our customers around the world thanks to our thorough knowledge of the regulations.
