EU Directive

94/9/EC (ATEX 95)

for Pneumatic Components
EX-PROOF
ATEX (Atmosphres explosibles)
When and where can an explosion occur?
Potentially explosive
atmospheres
Explosions can always occur
where combustible gases,
vapours, liquids or dusts are
produced, stored or
transported and can under
certain conditions combine
with air to form an explosive
mixture. In such potentially
explosive atmospheres a
small spark is often enough to
trigger an explosion.
Potentially explosive
atmospheres occur for
example in chemical plants,
refineries, tank installations,
paint factories and other
places where dust-forming
bulk goods are processed or
transported, e.g. in flour mills,
animal feed factories and
cement works.

Pneumatic Components in -Atmospheres
ATEX 95 and ATEX 137
What are potential
ignition sources?
Electrical ignition sources can
be:
- Arcing when contacts are
opened
- Transient electric currents
- Electrostatic discharge
- Hot surfaces on coils
Examples of mechanical
ignition sources:
- Hot surfaces caused by
friction
- Adiabatic compression
- Sparks created by impacts
Examples of other ignition
sources:
- Open fire
- Hot-running bearings
- Auto-ignition
- Lightning strike
Directive 94/9/EC is designed
to harmonize the laws of the
EU Member States concerning
equipment and protective
systems intended for use in
potentially explosive
atmospheres.
Previously known as ATEX
100a, the Directive now has
the working title ATEX 95 and
defines the unified safety
requirements needed for free
trade.
The Directive has been
incorporated into the national
law of the Member States and
applies to the sales of
equipment, components and
protective systems for use in
potentially explosive
atmospheres with effect from
1st July 2003. Therefore this
Directive mainly affects the
manufacturer.
Directive 1999/92/EC defines
the minimum requirements for
the improvement of the health
protection and safety of
employees who may be
endangered by explosive
atmospheres. It was previ-
ously known as ATEX 118a
and is now called ATEX 137.
This Directive applies to
operators of plant with
explosive atmospheres and
applies to the building of new
plant, also with effect from 1st
July 2003. For the adaptation
of existing plant there is a
transitional phase up to 31st
December 2005.
The abbreviation ATEX covers two European Union Directives: 94/9/EC and 1999/92/EC.
What products are affected by ATEX 95?
What changes have been made by ATEX?
Application of ATEX to Manufacturers and Operators
The application of ATEX has
basically made the following
changes:
- The Directive now also
applies to non-electrical
equipment (e.g. pneumatic
drives) as well as to
electrical equipment.
- It defines fundamental safety
requirements and also
applies to complete
protective systems.
- Equipment is divided into
Groups and Categories.
These are then related to
corresponding danger Zones
which have to be defined by
the operator in accordance
with ATEX 137.
- Depending on the
Equipment Category, a type
approval is required.
- Marking with the CE mark is
now compulsory.
3
Application to Manufacturers and Operators
- A declaration of conformity
must accompany each
product as well as the
operating instructions.
- The Directive now also
applies to potential dust
explosion atmospheres.
- It now applies to under-
ground mining operations as
well as to all other potentially
explosive atmospheres.
All electrical equipment for use
in potentially explosive
atmospheres was already
covered by the existing law on
explosion protection. ATEX 95
however additionally applies to
non-electrical equipment, such
as piston rod cylinders, rodless
cylinders and valves.
It therefore applies to all equip-
ment for use in potentially
explosive atmospheres which
have any intrinsic potential
source of ignition, including
sources such as hot surfaces
or adiabatic compression.
What products do not fall under ATEX 95?
With effect from 1st July 2003 the responsibility for newly built plant with potentially explosive
atmospheres lies not only with the manufacturer of explosion-proof equipment but also with the
operator and builder of the plant.
The following product
examples have no intrinsic
sources of ignition and
therefore do not fall under
ATEX 95.
- Pneumatic accessories
- Mechanical accessories
- Tubing
- Fittings
- Check/ flow control valves
Such products can be used in
specified potentially explosive
atmospheres in accordance
with the manufacturers
instructions.
ATEX 95 for the Manufacturer
Under ATEX 95 the manufacturer has to evaluate his products and to mark them
accordingly:
- Division into Equipment Groups and Categories for use in different Zones
- Division into Temperature Classes
- Division into Explosion Groups
- Determination of permissible ambient temperatures
The Equipment Groups and Categories are defined as follows. You will find
further information on the Temperature Classes and Explosion Groups on page 6.
Category 1
This equipment is designed to
ensure a very high level of
safety. It must ensure the
required level of safety even in
the event of rare equipment
malfunctions. Therefore its
explosion protection system
must ensure that:
- in the event of the failure of
one means of protection, at
least one second, independent
means provides the required
level of protection
- or in the event of two faults
occurring independently of
each other, the required level
of safety is still ensured.
Category 2
This equipment is designed to
ensure a high level of safety.
Its explosion protection
system must ensure the
required level of safety even in
the event of frequently
occurring incidents or
equipment malfunctions
which normally have to be
expected.
Equipment Group II
Equipment in Group II is divided into Categories 1, 2 and 3 according to its suitability for use in the
different Zones defined by ATEX 137.
Equipment Group I
Equipment in Group I is divided into Categories M1 and M2. This equipment is used in
mining, where there is the danger of explosions caused by firedamp or flammable dust.

Category 3
This equipment is designed to
ensure a normal level of safety
so that it provides the requisite
level of safety in normal
operation.

Allocation of Equipment Groups and Categories to Zones
ATEX 137 for the Operator
Under ATEX 137 the operator must assess his plant, identify dangers, evaluate the risks (e.g. within
the framework of an explosion protection document) and define appropriate protective measures:
- Division of the plant into Zones according to the assessed danger potential
- Determination of Temperature Classes
- Determination of Explosion Groups
- Determination of ambient temperatures experienced
The Zones are defined under ATEX 137 as follows. You will find further information on the
Temperature Classes and Explosion Groups on page 6.

Zone 0 (Gases)
An area in which an explosive
atmosphere occurs as a
mixture of air and flammable
gases, vapours or mists
constantly, frequently or for
long periods. Such conditions
are found for example inside
storage tanks or pipework.
Zone 1 (Gases)
An area in which an explosive
atmosphere can occur as a
mixture of air and flammable
gases, vapours or mists
occasionally. Such areas can
be for example in close
proximity to a Zone 0 or to
filling and emptying
equipment.
Zone 2 (Gases)
An area in which an explosive
atmosphere as a mixture of air
and flammable gases,
vapours or mists does not
normally occur in normal
operation, or occurs only
briefly. Such areas might be
for example near a Zone 1,
near pipework connections or
in storage areas.
Zone 20 (Dusts)
An area in which an explosive
atmosphere occurs as a dust
cloud or dust layer consisting
of air and flammable dust
particles constantly, frequently
or for long periods.
Zone 21
(Dusts)
An area in
which an
explosive
atmosphere
can occur as a dust cloud or
dust layer consisting of air and
flammable dust particles
occasionally in normal
operation.
Zone 22 (Dusts)
An area in which an explosive
atmosphere as a dust cloud or
dust layer consisting of air and

In the USA, potentially
explosive atmospheres are
divided into two Divisions and
combustible materials are
divided into three Classes. In
NEC Article 505 the ATEX
requirements for Zones 0, 1
and 2 were taken over for
Class I.
The following table shows a
comparison of the
classification of potentially
explosive atmospheres
according to the US and
European Directives.
Division 1
An explosive atmosphere
exists constantly, for long
periods or occasionally.
Division 2
An explosive atmosphere
exists only seldom or briefly.
Incorporation of ATEX into the National Law
of the EU Member States
All European Directives have
to be incorporated into the
national law of the EU
Member States. In Germany
the Directive 94/9/EG was
incorporated into law by the
11th Ordinance of the
Equipment Safety Statute
(Explosion Protection
Ordinance - 11. GSGV) of 12th
December 1996.
The Directive 1999/92/EG was
incorporated into German law
by the Ordinance on Safety
and Health Protection in the
Construction and Operation of
Equipment, Safety in the
Operation of Equipment
Requiring Monitoring, and
Organisation of Operational
Work Protection (Operating
Safety Ordinance - BetrSichV)
of 27th September 2002.
Class I
Combustible gases, vapours
and liquids.
Class II
Combustible dusts.
Class III
Slightly combustible particles
and materials.
