Explosion proof / ATEX signaling devices
Auer Signal's explosion proof signaling devices provide safety for all applications in which the atmosphere can be potentially explosive or hazardous, therefore meeting European ATEX standard. Our ex-proof visual and audible equipment is suitable for areas in which flammable gases and vapors (zones 0, 1 & 2) or flammable dust (zones 20, 21 & 22) can pose an ongoing, frequent or occasional risk. Browse our large portfolio of explosion proof / ATEX products such as LED beacons, Xenon strobes, horns and sounders.
For potentially explosive atmospheres
Safety for all potentially explosive applications
Auer Signal's explosion-proof signaling equipment provides safety for all applications in which the atmosphere can be potentially explosive. For atmospheres classified as potentially explosive, in which flammable gases and vapours (zones 0, 1 & 2) or flammable dust (zones 20, 21 & 22) can pose an ongoing, frequent, occasional or even infrequent risk.
Uncompromising quality to ensure safety
The highest levels of safety demand the highest levels of quality
Built for use in the chemical industry, in refineries and on oil rigs, or in ship and aircraft construction. The Ex signaling equipment is of the highest mechanical stability, maintenance free and without parts subject to wear.
Warning in an
explosive atmosphere (ATEX)
In many industries around the world, production takes place in highly explosive atmospheres. For example, this is the case in the chemical industry, in refineries or in ship and aircraft construction. The signaling devices used in these areas must meet strict standards and must be able to withstand vibrations or extreme temperatures in order to warn of emergencies in case of danger.
They have the highest mechanical strength and are maintenance and wear-free. It is precisely for such devices that there is a European standard that certifies this increased resistance: the ATEX safety standard. ATEX is derived from the French abbreviation of "EXplosive ATmospheres".
Explosion proof visual and audible devices
The explosion proof signaling devices from Auer Signal offer safety for all applications where the atmosphere can become explosive. As with conventional signaling under normal conditions, ATEX devices can be divided into two main categories: visual and audible signals.
Our ATEX visual warning devices are resistant to the danger of explosions of flammable gases, vapours or dust. Depending on the model, they have a protection class of IP66 or IP67. They are designed for zones 1,2,21,22 depending on the model. Visual ATEX devices are available as LED or Xenon lights as continuous, flashing, flashing or rotating light. The nominal voltage of our devices ranges from 24V DC, 48V DC, 110-240V AC or 230V AC.
ATEX horns are also designed to withstand gas and dust explosions. With a protection class of IP54 to IP66, they operate at temperatures from -20°C to +75°C. The ATEX zones covered vary between 1,2,21 and 22 depending on the product.
Horns from Auer Signal for hazardous areas can be mounted vertically or horizontally. Their sound pressure can reach up to 115 dB.
