	The flanges and filling lines and all the rest of the installation are unknown and standard can not be clarified without further information. If zone classification is needed in a business environment with hazards involved it is advisable to pay a consultant to this. This consultant can also assist with identifying and following the necessary standard(s). __________________ Common Sense Dictates

	Then just purchase the Indian standard IS 5572 standard, and any other standard mentioned or required. We are talking about zoning a Hazardous Area here, if you don't know what you are doing you shouldn't be doing it. Legal reasons, bla, bla, bla, ethical liability, bla, bla, hire a consultant, bla, bla. __________________ jack of all trades

	If the distance from the flanges is greater than zero then the plant has a major materials containment problem that requires addressing immediately! __________________ "Did you get my e-mail?" - "The biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place" - George Bernard Shaw, 1856
