What is Ex-equipment / areas? Electrical non-electrical equipment used in an area where there is a risk of presence of a flammable atmosphere (gas dust) - are popular called Exequipment equipment f use in Hazardous Areas Ex-equipment are typically used in places like: The chemical industry Oil refineries Off she installations (platfms) Filling stations Tunnels/ sewers/ drains Milling industry/ printing-house / painting industry Farmer s installations Mining industry Scope of the ATEX Directive 94/9/EC The Directive covers Electrical and Non-electrical equipment! Equipment : Machines, apparatus, instruments, fixed mobile devices, control components and so on. Protective systems : e.g. equipment that can stop delay an explosion Components : Essential parts f the safety but with no autonomous function. Safety control and regulation equipment intended to be used outside the Ex-area - but with a function that secures the safety in the Ex-area.
