Electrical and non-electrical equipment for use in workplaces potentially at risk for explosive atmospheres must ensure a level of safety appropriate to the area of installation. Equipment going into an explosive atmosphere/environments, whether electrical or non-electrical, is subject to strict testing and certification requirements in many countries. The design requirements for products used in an explosive atmosphere differ significantly from those employed in a non-explosive atmosphere. Furthermore, there are key design differences depending on which type of explosive atmosphere they may be used in. It is therefore imperative to understand the what the design implications are at the start of the product design process.
We offer testing of the Ex products as per the below mentioned standards:
| EN ISO 80079-36 | Explosive atmospheres — Part 36: Non-electrical equipment for explosive atmospheres — Basic method and requirements |
