Certifications

ATEX Approved

Go to ATEX Website

ATEX Directive 94/9/EC (also known as ATEX 100a) is applicable on products used in explosion hazardous zones. This directive also covers non electrical products, like our diaphragm pumps. From July 2003, it is mandatory within the EU to have ATEX certificate on products which are intended for use in EX-zones.


There are three main categories (zones) in the ATEX directive:

  • CAT 1 (zone 0), flammable material present continuously or for long periods
  • CAT 2 (zone 1), flammable material present occasionally in normal operation
  • CAT 3 (zone 2), flammable material present in abnormal conditions for short periods

EC1935/2004 DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY


Selected Blagdon FDA compliant pumps have been approved to meet the EC 1935/2004 regulation for food contact materials. This regulation, which is commonly associated with products that come in contact with food, ensures that products being pumped will not experience contamination from the pump construction materials. Look for the glass and fork symbol below which indicates certification. For more information, please contact the Blagdon Facility in Shannon.
