Development of European standards: Non-electrical equipment for use in explosive atmospheres
The European standards body, CEN, has a mandate to produce standards in support of Directive ATEX 100 which specifies requirements for both electrical and no-electrical equipment for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. This work is being carried out in the technical committee CEN/TC 305 with working group WG2 being responsible for standards for non-electrical equipment. The paper describes the development and current status of the standards being produced and the reasons for the differences between the standards for electrical and non-electrical equipment. In particular the requirements contained in the European standard EN 13463 part 1 "Non-electrical equipment for potentially explosive atmospheres -Part 1: Basic method and requirements" with its specification that manufacturers must carry out an ignition hazard assessment for the classification of equipment are elaborated.
