Technical Focus
Directive 94/9/EC (AtEx) applies to all types of equipment, protective systems and components intended for use in or in relation to potentially explosive atmospheres. The Directive also concerns control and safety devices intended to be used outside the potentially explosive atmosphere but essential for the safe functioning of the equipment and protective systems in relation to the risk of explosion.
“Explosive atmosphere” means a mixture of air characterised by the simultaneous presence of flammable substances in the form of gases, vapours, mists or dusts and in which, following ignition, combustion spreads to the entire unburned mixture.
