ATEX refers to the European Union directives that regulate equipment and protective systems used in explosive atmospheres. It ensures that any machinery or devices intended for use in hazardous environments, such as those with flammable gases, vapors, or dust, meet stringent safety standards. The directive classifies areas into zones based on the likelihood of an explosive atmosphere occurring, helping companies manage risks effectively. Compliance with ATEX regulations is critical for industries like oil, gas, and chemical manufacturing to prevent workplace accidents and ensure operational safety.
Computer Guard offers a variety of solution to integrate readers in explosive atmospheres.
Unique housing that allow to install a card reader to read worker’s ID card in ATEX explosive environments.
In the picture – a hardened case made of cast aluminum, explosion-proof, for vertical installation on a wall, which includes a HID R10 reader.
Electromagnetic door locks, certified to operate in ATEX environments.
The lock in the picture is a mono-block, made of high-quality stainless steel, and designed to withstand loads of up to 550 kg.
This unique and certified lock can be connected to any third-party system to provide a highly effective security and access control solution to restricted areas.
Push Buttons adapted for operation in explosive environments and dangerous areas.
The push button in the picture is made of a unique material composition that combines reinforced polyester resin and UV resistant glass fibers. It is designed to work with both stand-alone door controllers and third-party access control systems to provide a highly effective access control solution for ATEX classified hazardous areas.
Call button devices, of “break in case of emergency” type, adapted for installation and use in explosive environments and dangerous areas.
The device in the picture includes a glass pane to break in case of an emergency. the device also includes a Test button for regular tests without the need to break the pane. It is made of high-quality aluminum with a durable coating for use in hazardous environments.
Condition Monitoring in an explosive environment ATEX
As part our solutions, we provide an advanced IoT system for monitoring the health and condition of industrial equipment and devices, the system allows maintenance managers in a factory or organization to optimize their maintenance policy and move from a breakdown maintenance policy to a predictive maintenance policy.
The system, which includes among other things sensors installed inside dedicated ATEX certified beacons, can operate safely in an explosive environment condition.
