ATEX electrical panels and certified cassettes

ATEX is the conventional name of Directive 94/9/EC of the European Union for the regulation of equipment intended for use in hazardous areas. The name comes from the words ATmosphères and EXplosibles.

Like most explosion protection regulations, the directive distinguishes the risk according to the nature of the dangerous product, and according to the ignition temperature of the product itself. The following are therefore classified:

A Group, defined according to the explosive product
A Class, defined according to the ignition temperature

ATEX environments

This term is used to refer to hazardous areas, as well as regulations relating to the use of equipment and protection systems in such environments.
A danger zone may contain an explosive mixture of air and flammable substances in the atmosphere, in the form of gases, vapours or dusts the ignition of which may lead to combustion.

ATEX REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS

The provisions on risk prevention in explosive atmospheres are as follows:
• international standards: IEC 61241 and IEC 60079.

Application	Hazardous area category	Zones	Atmosphere
GROUP I Mining	M1 and M2	Gas and Dust (G and D)
GROUP II Industrial (non-mining)	1. Continuous or for long periods	Zone 0: Gas, vapour and mist Zone 20: Dusts	G D
	2. Occasional	Zone 1: Gas, vapour and mist Zone 21: Dusts	G D
	3. Short periods only	Zone 2: Gas, vapour and mist Zone 22: Dusts	G D
