Background
As of 1st July 2003, the ATEX directive came into force throughout the EEC. This directive became an obligatory requirement for all electrical and mechanical equipment intended for use in dangerous areas.
Potentially explosive atmospheres exist where there is a risk of explosion due to mixtures of gas and air, steam and air, dust and air or other explosive combinations typical of petrol vapours.
If the electrical or mechanical material must be used in areas where there is an explosive atmosphere, it must be designed and built so as not to create/ to eliminate sources of ignition such as sparks, hot surfaces or static electricity and all sources of combustion able to ignite these mixtures.
Risk areas for environments where gas and flammable vapours are present can range from AREA 0 (constant risk of explosion) to AREA 1 (risk of explosion probable) and AREA 2 (low risk and any risk of explosion persists for a short time only)
PIUSI extends its experience to the world of explosive liquids
In light of the regulations in force regarding the use of materials in potentially explosive environments, Piusi is broadening its horizons in search of solutions for transferring fluids, enhancing its range with new products for dispensing explosive liquids.
The experience gained with diesel transfer pumps, together with the growing demands of the market, has prompted the development of this new line of petrol, kerosene and diesel fuel pumps that satisfy the criteria of the stringent ATEX directive.
This is attested by CESI certification number CESI12ATEX033X and the IECEx certification scheme, certification number IECEx CES12.0016X.
