ATEX
Extensive explosion protection

for gas and dust environments

For applications in potentially explosive atmospheres, PFLITSCH offers the widest cable gland range, certified in accordance with the current ATEX directive for the application fields G (gas) and D (dust) in equipment class II and in ignition protection class e (explosion-proof) and d (pressure-resistant encapsulation).

Approved for the ignition protection class e in the application fields G (gas) and D (dust) are the UNI Dicht ATEX gland types made of metal (brass and stainless steel) in M 10 to M 85 and Pg 7 to Pg 48, as well as those made of plastic in M16 to M50 and Pg 9 to Pg 36. The sensitivity to dust-endangered areas is on the increase - not only in the chemical, pharmaceutical or food industries, but also in agriculture, wood-working and the metal industry.

PFLITSCH cable glands can be used in all fields falling under the ignition protection class "increased safety" (zones 22, 21, 2 and 1). Sealing inserts made of different plastics facilitate various temperature application ranges between -40°C and +135°C.

blueglobe is certified in accordance with ATEX in sizes from M12 to M63 in brass nickel-plated and stainless steel. Sealing inserts made of TPE are deployed for the sealing range between -40°C and +115°C.

A special line is the various ATEX-certified EMC cable glands: They offer explosion protection combined with comprehensive EMC protection.
