ATEX Certificate as PDF
ATEX refers to EU directives on explosion protection (ATmosphères EXplosibles) from 2014 and 1999, which focus on the safe handling of explosive atmospheres. The primary emphasis is on the protection and safety of workers who handle explosive materials and equipment.
We are certified to inspect and adjust systems according to this essential requirement. Our main focus is on securing explosive atmospheres and preventing damage. We adhere strictly to the following specifications:
Customer- and country-specific versions of systems for explosive atmospheres
Explosion protection according to:
- Mechanical ATEX (Certification up to Ex II 2GD cbk T3)
- NEC 500 (Construction of units with control up to Class 1, Division 2)
- NEC 505 (Construction of units with control up to Class 1, Zone 1)
- IECEx (Construction of units with control up to Zone 1, IIC, T4)
These four guidelines are internationally recognized standards from the EU, the USA, and the IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission, a global organization that develops and publishes international standards for electrical engineering). We strive for strict adherence and verification to ensure safe and reliable production even in explosive atmospheres.
Country-specific regulations
- EU Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC
- UL (Underwriters Laboratories)
- CSA/CEC (Canadian Standards Association/Canadian Electrical Code)
- EAC (Eurasian Conformity)
- …
In addition to adhering to international explosion protection standards, we also emphasize compliance with regional and international regulations concerning machinery construction. These regulations not only ensure quality but also help prevent deficiencies that could contribute to explosion hazards. The key standards are represented by those from the EU, the USA, Canada, Russia, and Central Asia. However, we place great importance on fulfilling all other relevant regulations for your project as well.
