ATEX Directive 94/9/EC
Compliant Equipment

We are working with our customers to schedule their replacement programmes for pre-existing equipment in hazardous areas which are not compliant with ATEX Directive 94/9/EC. The time-critical clauses of EC Directive 99/92/EC (also known as ATEX 137 or 'The Use Directive') state:

"Workplaces which contain places where explosive atmospheres may occur and which are used for the first time after 30 June 2003 shall comply with minimum requirements set out in this Directive."

Clause 3 of Article 9, Directive 1999/92/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 December 1999
 

"Where workplaces which contain places where explosive atmospheres may occur are already in use before 30 June 2003, they shall comply with the minimum requirements set out in this Directive no later than three years after that date."
