A guide to the selection and use of products in potentially explosive atmospheres within the EU, is now available from portable safety lighting equipment supplier the Wolf Safety Lamp Company
The definitive guide regarding the selection and use of products in potentially explosive atmospheres within the EU, is now available from the Wolf Safety Lamp Company, the leading manufacturer of portable safety lighting equipment in such areas.
The 'Atex Explained' wall chart outlines in clear graphic detail these new requirements as specified in the 94/9/EC ATEX [Equipment] Directive.
From 1st July 2003, only equipment and systems 'CE' marked as compliant with this Directive may be used in the EU.
Wolf Safety's informative chart also highlights the new obligations and safety measures under the 99/92/EC ATEX [Workplace] Directive, which also becomes mandatory in July 2003, to guarantee improved levels of protection for workers involved in potentially explosive gas, vapour, mist and dust atmospheres.
Endorsed by a major UK test establishment, this user-friendly wall chart illustrates the degree of equipment protection necessary in relation to the severity of hazardous area zone, so that the two can be appropriately matched and any concerns regarding category classification dispelled.
A free copy of the 'ATEX Explained' chart can be obtained from the Sales Office at Wolf Safety.
