ATEX APPROVED (HAZARDOUS AREA) DESIGN
CE Marking has been introduced as part of the European Union's new approach to technical harmonisation as a means of identifying products that comply with all EC directives.

The Explosive Atmospheres 94/9/EC ATEX (Equipment) Directive became mandatory on July 1st 2003. (It is named after the French "ATmosphere EXplosible").

The directive applies to all equipment and systems for use in potentially explosive atmospheres within the EU.

Manufacturers who apply its provisions and affix the CE marking are able to sell their equipment anywhere in Europe without any further requirements being applied with respect to the risks covered being applied.

The directive covers a surprisingly large range of equipment, potentially including equipment used on fixed offshore platforms, in petro-chemical plants, mines, flourmills and other areas where a potentially explosive atmosphere may be present.

Cooltime manufacture, supply and service a large range of ATEX certified equipment that are CE marked in accordance with the ATEX Directive 94/9/EC and the latest CENELEC standards, certified for use in Zone 1 and Zone 2 hazardous areas.
