Equipment products certified with ATEX explosion-proof certificate or IEC Ex certification are essential for use in any potentially explosive or potentially explosive environment, and are an important guarantee to assist in creating production safety. There are many operating conditions that can be defined as being in an explosive environment, some of which are more obvious, such as oil drilling platforms, and some of which you may not realize are also explosive, such as flour mills.
Most of us have heard of ATEX and IEC Ex certifications, but the question many people ask is - what makes them so unique and worthy of recognition? Today we are going to popularize the professional knowledge related to this certification.
ATEXExplosion proof certification
The ATEX Explosion proof Certification Directive, named in French as "ATmosph è res EXplosibles", is intended for manufacturers of equipment intended for use in potentially explosive environments. The directive applies to a wide range of equipment, including fixed offshore platforms, petrochemical plants, flour mills, and other locations where potential explosive environments may exist. This instruction also applies to components necessary for safe use, as well as safety devices that directly benefit the safe use of equipment within the scope of application. These devices can be installed outside of potentially explosive environments.
ATEX explosion-proof certification is mandatory throughout Europe, covering all stages from manufacturing to equipment installation and use. The CE mark is a mandatory mark, and products that comply with all provisions of the ATEX directive must bear the CE mark. Therefore, the CE mark affixed to explosion-proof products is a special proof of their compliance with the basic requirements of the ATEX directive and the conformity assessment procedures specified in the directive.
IECExExplosion proof certification
The IEC Scheme for Certification to Standards for Electrical Equipment for Explosive atmospheres (IECEx) was established in 1996 and is an international organization for certification of explosion-proof electrical products. The IECEx certification system currently has 22 official member countries, including major industrial countries in Europe, the United States, Australia, as well as countries such as Russia, South Korea, Singapore, and Japan.
IECExThe ultimate goal of the system is to be accepted worldwide
However, currently, explosion-proof products exported to EU countries only recognize ATEX certificates and do not recognize IECEx certificates.
Some benefits of choosing products with IEC Ex certification include:
---Reduce testing and certification costs
---Shorten the time to market
---The international community's confidence in the product evaluation process
Like ATEX explosion-proof certification, IEC Ex certification provides assurance and guarantees that all aspects from equipment and installation to the manufacturing, operation, and maintenance of certified products comply with IEC international standards and are suitable for their purpose.
ATEXDifference from IECEx:
ATEX is a mandatory certification in the European Union, and all explosion-proof equipment circulating in the EU market must pass the ATEX explosion-proof directive 94/9/EC certification before it can be sold.
IECEx is a voluntary certification, not mandatory, and is currently not recognized by the European Union and North American markets. Products entering the European Union and North American markets need to reapply for the required certification.
