BOTPROTEK: PROTECT YOUR INDUSTRIAL EQUIPMENT IN ATEX ZONES.
Use the right protective covers to avoid the risk of explosion
ATEX zones (Explosive Atmospheres) are spaces in which one or more flammable substances (particles, vapor and / or gas) are found. If a burst (electrostatic) spark or electric shock is created, the mixture air.flammable substance may ignite and cause an explosion.
Work in ATEX areas is regulated by directives and standards which help to avoid accidents.
Thus, the ISO 80079-36 standard aims to qualify the material used in ATEX zones in order to avoid triggering sparks.
The use of antistatic fabric in ATEX areas is highly recommended because it does not allow the creation of static charges that can create a spark.
Within our Botprotek brand, we offer protection solutions for robots and industrial equipment. Among our options, we provide anti-static fabrics which have been tested and which meet the requirements of the standard. You can protect your robots, industrial equipment and other tools in ATEX areas with our Botprotek range.
In the table below, you find the requirements of the standard in the left column and the results of our antistatic fabric in the right column. These tests were carried out by an independent laboratory and under the conditions imposed by standard ISO 80079-36.
