Now offering Atex Pumps
“Explosive proof versions”
of LKH, SRU and SX!
We can now offer the LKH, SRU and SX
pumps supplied with an ATEX symbol which
ensures that they are classified for use in
potentially explosive atmospheres
Applications
These pumps conform to the design requirements for use in areas endangered by potentially explosive atmospheres created by the presence of flammable gases, vapours and dusts.
Atex Directive
Pumps supplied with an ATEX symbol are generally classified for use in potentially explosive atmospheres under ATEX Directive 94/9/EC Group II, Categories 2 and 3. Should pumps be required for other groups or categories, please consult our Customer Services for further advice.
Important!
It will be the responsibility of the end user to classify the group and the corresponding zone (dust or gas) in accordance with the EC Directive 1992/92/EC.
