The hot parts protection consist of a metal grid to protect the hot parts (exhaust line) of the engine.
This supplement is useful to prevent the accidental contact with the hot parts of the engine.

METAL GRID PROTECTION
The exhaust spark arrestor allows preventing the emission of flammable debris from combustion sources and allows to working in ATEX zone 2.
Diesel Engine exhaust spark arrestors are a basic, but key safety feature for both hazardous areas and lower risk diesel engine applications such
as agriculture or forestry where a spark from the exhaust system may cause ignition of combustible material.

Those Spark Arrestors are designed as a safety
device, specifically for preventing the risk of fire
caused by the spread of sparks emitted from diesel
engines. All diesel engines have the potential to emit
sparks even the latest clean engines. This is due to
the high carbon particulate content, carbon build up
and the high ratio of free oxygen in the exhaust gas
when on and off load. The amount of energy carried
by these sparks and the risk of them being
transmitted over large areas in the presence of
flammable materials, gases or dust can significantly
increase the chances of igniting fires or causing
explosions.
Under many Health and Safety guidelines and
legislation, such as ATEX, this potential risk has
been identified as the cause of many catastrophic
fires over the years and the fitting of a Spark Arrestor
and other protective measures has been mandated
as an important means of reducing this.
For this reason, Spark Arrestors are mandatory
equipment in many industries where potentially
explosive environments are common.
The fitting of Spark Arrestors should be considered in
any risk assessment programme and always as an
essential component of any ATEX installation
covered by EN1834.

The ATEX zone 2 (gases /
vapors) is an area in which an
explosive mixture is not likely to
occur in normal operation and if it
occurs, it will exist only for a short
time.
