Nuaire ATEX

The ATEX directives oblige consultants, contractors and users to provide personal and property protection from explosion hazards. Mixtures of air and inflammable substances, such as gases, vapours, mists or dust can arise under atmospheric conditions. If a potential ignition source such as friction, electrical discharge or heat is present, there is the risk of an explosion. These atmospheric conditions are summarised in the acronym ‘ATEX’ standing for ‘ATmosphères Explosives’.
