IMPEDANCE SPECTROSCOPY ANALYSIS OF INTRINSIC SAFETY CIRCUITS
Abstract
The paper presents issues regarding impedance spectroscopy analysis for the identification of intrinsically safe circuits. The first part of the paperwork presents the explosion risk. In industrial applications, the presence of flammable substances leads to additional requirements for technical equipment used in such spaces. On the other hand, technical equipment used in such spaces must remain in working order even when the risk of explosion is high. For this purpose, equipment used in such spaces should be assessed, tested, and certified so that it functions safely related to explosion hazard aspects. The second part presents the theoretical model employed for the identification of intrinsically safe circuits. In the third part are presented the results and discussion of the intrinsically safe circuit identification based on the impedance spectroscopy analysis and use. An important conclusion of the approach is that the identification of intrinsically safe circuits using impedance spectroscopy can be a useful tool.
