ATEX certification is an explosion-proof directive of the European Union CE certification, with the directive code 2014/34/EU. It is a mandatory certification for explosion-proof equipment and products entering the EU market, and the product certification standards are EN 60079 and ISO 80079 series. The specific requirements depend on the explosion-proof level and explosion-proof logo that the product is suitable for.
ATEX certification has different issuing agencies, and most of them adopt the certification method of "product testing factory review". Currently, only ATEX certificates issued by ECM institutions have a clear validity period of 5 years. Other authoritative institutions such as TUV, CSA, SGS, TI, etc. do not have an expiration date for ATEX certification certificates issued, as they require an annual on-site review of the production factory of certified products. If the review is qualified, the validity of the certificate can be maintained. Of course, when encountering standard updates, certificate updates are necessary.
Although ATEX certification is an EU explosion-proof certification, it can also be handled by agents in China. Zhongnuo Testing is a professional agent for ATEX certification.
