The full name of ATEX dust collector is bag-type explosion-proof dust collector. It is explosion-proof and safe, has high dust removal efficiency and good filtration effect.
ATEX dust collector can effectively collect the explosion-related dust generated in the process of the workshop through various air hoods and pipes, and use the power of high-efficiency exhaust fans.
After collection and filtration by the explosion-proof dust collector, the discharge meets the national minimum emission limit standards.
What is the ATEX directive?
The ATEX directives are European regulations concerning potentially explosive environments. They consist of two main parts:
- ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU: This directive covers equipment and protective systems intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. It stipulates the essential health and safety requirements. It also outlines the conformity assessment procedures that must be followed before products are placed on the EU market. This directive came into effect on April 20, 2016. It replaced the previous directive 94/9/EC.
- ATEX Workplace Directive 1999/92/EC: This directive aims to improve health and safety protection levels for workers. These workers may be at risk from explosive environments. The directive establishes minimum requirements.
Correct design of ATEX dust collector
- Mount fans for centralizingdust extraction or connection flanges on the top or front.
- Use 304 / 316 casing and sealing frame.
- Offer a removable rear panel or one with an inspection hatch.
- Make left or right door hinges from low carbon steel or stainless steel.
- Installsafety devices such as rotary valves and back pressure valves.
- Install ATEX explosion-proof panels .
- Equip electronic control panels with various controls and a differential pressure gauge .
- The ATEX fans are suitable for handling potentially explosive dust.
- Add a weatherproof cover on the clean air outlet.
- Spark detection and extinguishing systems are in place to prevent external ignition sources.
