Class 1 Zone 0

In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases or vapors are present Continuously and in which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases or vapors are present for long periods of time.

Class 1 Zone 1

In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases or vapors are likely to exist under normal operating conditions or vapors may exist frequently because of repair or maintenance operations or because of leakage and in which equipment is operated or processes are carried on, of such a nature that equipment breakdown or faulty operations could result in the release of ignitable concentrations of flammable gases or vapors and also cause simultaneous failure of electrical equipment in a mode to cause the electrical equipment to become a source of ignition.

Class 1 Zone 2

in which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases or vapors are not likely to occur in normal operation and if they do occur they will exist only for a short period or in which volatile flammable liquids, flammable gases, or flammable vapors are handled, processed, or used, but in which the liquids, gases, or vapors normally are confined within closed containers of closed systems from which they can escape, only as a result of accidental rupture or breakdown of the container system and in which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases or vapors normally are prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, but which may become hazardous as a result of failure or abnormal operation of the ventilation equipment.
