IECEx Certification
The IEC (International Electrotechnical Comission) develops international standards and operates conformity assessment schemes in the fields of electrotechnology. One such scheme, IECEx is a single global certification scheme, based on IEC and ISO international standards.
Read moreThe Galvanic Series
A set of values has been given to a series of metals and alloys in terms of their relative nobility, or ability to resist corrosion, whilst immersed in sea water. In other situations, where materials are not immersed, but are exposed to atmospheric contaminants, their status will be largely dependent upon the environment in which they are located.
Read moreHealth & Safety and the ATEX Directive
Operators and contractors must comply with regulations laid down to ensure the safety of workers and follow installation codes of practice that are designed to reduce risk. Under UK law, the Health & Safety at Work Act makes employers responsible for ensuring the health and safety of their employees and also of the public, if they are at risk from dangerous substances or situations. The Protection of Workers at Risk from Potentially Explosive Atmospheres Directive 99/92/EC establishes minimum requirements to protect workers against hazards from explosive atmospheres.
