The Directive applies to equipment that has its own source of ignition; is intended for use in a potentially explosive atmosphere (air mixtures); and is under normal atmospheric conditions.
Mixers not complying with ATEX can be cost-effectively upgraded by Chemineer, who also have achieved ATEX Zone 1 for its XP, MR, HS and Greerco High Shear mixers.
In addition to meeting the ATEX Directive, the Chemineer commitment to quality and safety has seen it achieve compliance with ASME-BPE quality, which demonstrates an exemplary standard for manufacturing high purity equipment ideally suited to critical industries.
Chemineer also became one of the very first designers and manufacturers of mixers and agitators to achieve the stringent requirements of the EU's new Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) - an important safety issue often overlooked by some contractors.
