In industries where volatile gases or combustible dusts are present, equipment safety becomes mission-critical. From oil refineries to offshore platforms, the risk of explosion is not theoretical—it’s a daily operational concern. That’s why specialized machinery like the Zone 2 Ex-proof Air Compressor is indispensable in hazardous environments. At Kingway Generator, safety isn’t just a feature—it’s a foundation. Their explosion-proof equipment, including compressors and water pumps designed for Zone 2 areas, helps ensure smooth, compliant, and reliable operations in high-risk zones.
In hazardous area classifications, Zone 2 refers to environments where explosive atmospheres are not likely to occur under normal operation but may happen occasionally. This makes Zone 2 areas less dangerous than Zones 0 and 1, but still requires certified Ex-proof (explosion-proof) equipment for safety compliance and personnel protection.
Examples of Zone 2 areas include:
Gas storage facilities
Oil and gas drilling rigs
Paint spray booths
Chemical processing plants
Using uncertified equipment in these locations could result in catastrophic accidents, operational downtime, and regulatory violations.

Kingway Generator integrates these features into every Zone 2 Ex-proof Air Compressor, combining performance with maximum explosion protection. This attention to engineering makes the compressors suitable for offshore rigs and remote petrochemical sites alike.
Safety cannot stop at air compression. Supporting systems like Zone 2 Water Pumps and power sources must also be designed for hazardous conditions. For example, in oilfield applications, both air compressors and water pumps must be Ex-proof to maintain overall site compliance.
In addition, Kingway offers Gas engines for sale options that are engineered to operate safely in Zone 2 environments. These engines are ideal for mobile power generation or equipment that must run independently of grid electricity.
Together, these systems form a cohesive, explosion-resistant infrastructure—built to withstand demanding applications without compromising safety.
Kingway’s Zone 2 solutions are used in a wide variety of high-risk industries:
Oil & Gas: For rig operations, well service trucks, and gas vapor recovery
Chemical Plants: Where solvent fumes and gases pose ignition risks
Mining: Particularly in underground zones with methane or coal dust
Maritime Shipping: Especially for tankers carrying flammable liquids
With certified compressors and pumps, you not only protect assets and personnel—you also maintain operational uptime in regulated environments.
