We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "ATEX Approved",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Manufacturingtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Web site details fans, blowers and dryers from
Air Control Industries, which we summarised at the time by saying "Companies searching for fans, blowers and drying systems will find them on an easy-to-navigate and extensively illustrated Web site, which is continuously updated".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Control particle size, measurement and moisture from
Malvern Instruments: "Two companies will be showing the latest developments in particle sizing systems for solids processing and infrared sensors for on-line measurement and control of moisture and composition".
In June 2007, we covered the news from ControlAir
concerning its Transducer
- take a look at Explosion-proof I/P transducer is ATEX compliant
which says: "ControlAir has announced the ATEX compliant Type-950XP explosion-proof I/P transducer which combines high-performance and reliability".
Take a look also at the news release from Gast, Regenerative blowers for vacuum or compressed air,
as well as Wireless industrial measurement and switching from Vega Controls UK,
and Vacuum equipment range in catalogue from Edwards.
