ATEX Fans

ACI offer a comprehensive range of  ATEX rated / approved industrial fans and blower units.

ATEX 94/9/EC, BS EN 14986:2007 is the directive on equipment and protective systems intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. Commonly referred to as the ATEX Directive it became EU law for any equipment, electrical or mechanical for installation within the EU member states.

 

  • Fans were identified as a major source of potential ignition and a CEN committee was set up to produce a standard specifically for the manufacture of fans for use in hazardous area.
  • Only companies with recognised quality certification are allowed to produce fans for installations requiring ATEX certification. ACI has been producing fans to the ATEX requirements for Group II equipment with gas and dust hazards for some time now and is one of the leading ATEX rated fan manufacturers in Europe.
  • ATEX is not only applicable to fans. Users of ATEX fans should also be aware of the implications in respect of their own installations.
  • As part of the ATEX Directive ACI also hasa duty of care to liaise with our customers and obtain particular information to enable us to select fans of the correct category and certification to satisfy application requirements.
