Diesel engines, working in potentially flammable atmospheres, can be an explosive mix that places workers and businesses at serious risk and could result in untold damage to the environment. History has taught us the lesson that such risks are very real and the impact is often catastrophic.

Dangerous ignition sources of unprotected diesel engines such as: electrical, mechanical, or static sparks, overspeed or flame from inlet or exhaust, and hot surfaces that could cause an auto-ignition of a flammable gas or vapour. Flammable gases in the atmosphere can be sucked in through the air intake along with air for combustion.

This results in backfires in the inlet and exhaust or engine overspeed situation whereby the engine runs out of control. Different surfaces on a diesel engine can become hot and therefore sources of ignition.
