Explosion Proof ATEX

In the workplace, managing health risks is crucial, and hazardous dust is one of the most significant hazards. When these materials mix with air, they can ignite and cause explosions, posing a severe threat to worker safety. Industries such as mining, petrochemicals, plastics, offshore platforms, and flour mills are particularly vulnerable to combustible dust explosions. To prevent these risks, it's essential to use vacuum cleaners designed to safely and effectively collect explosive materials. ATEX vacuum cleaners are specially designed for use in hazardous environments or operations with the risk of explosion due to the presence of combustible gas or dust. RGS offers a range of vacuum systems designed specifically for these types of environments, including systems with the "D" suffix for areas with dust and gas and systems with the "GD" suffix. Each vacuum is certified with a category 3 rating, enabling it to work in zones 2-22, with some versions suitable for category 2 and zone 1-21. For operations in zones 0-20, it is recommended to use systems that operate with compressed air. All RGS ATEX systems and electrical components comply with the relevant ATEX Directives for each classification area. In addition to the ATEX models, standard vacuum systems are also available, and RGS can provide customized solutions tailored to meet specific customer requirements through risk analysis procedures.
