In which region do you need this solution?
Harmonized EN standards for ATEX equipment
ATEX equipment must be designed, manufactured, and tested in accordance with one or more of the following harmonized European standards (EN standards), depending on the type of protection, category, gas or dust atmosphere, or Equipment Protection Level (EPL) used, e.g.:
Electrical equipment and devices:
- EN IEC 60079-0: General requirements
- EN 60079-1: Flameproof enclosure “d”
- EN 60079-2: Overpressure enclosure “p”
- EN 60079-5: Sand-filled enclosure “q”
- EN 60079-6: Oil-filled enclosure “o”
- EN 60079-7: Increased safety “e”
- EN 60079-11: Intrinsic safety “i”
- EN 60079-15: Type of protection “n”
- EN 60079-18: Cast encapsulation “m”
- EN 60079-26: Equipment with Equipment Protection Level (EPL) Ga
- EN 60079-28: Equipment operating with optical radiation
- EN 60079-31: Protection by enclosure “t” (dust)
- …
Non-electrical equipment:
- EN ISO 80079-36: Non-electrical equipment, principles and requirements “h”
- EN ISO 80079-37: Non-electrical equipment, protection “c”, “b”, and “k” (all with “h” marking)
"As a Notified Body, TÜV AUSTRIA inspects the design and production of explosion-proof equipment, devices, and components."
Equipment for potentially explosive atmospheres in accordance with the ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU
The design and manufacture of explosion-protected equipment, devices, and components are legally required under EU Directive 2014/34/EU, known as theATEX Directive (implemented in Austria as ExSV 2015).
TÜV AUSTRIA has been designated by the EU as an accredited inspection body and also as a “Notified Body” for testing and inspections in accordance with this directive (Notified Body identification number 0408).
