ATEX vs. ExP: How PerMix Delivers the Right Explosion-Proof Solution

When operating in hazardous environments, choosing the right explosion-proof solution is critical. But what’s the difference between ATEX certification and ExP (Pressurized Protection)? And more importantly, how does PerMix meet both needs?

🔹 ATEX (Atmosphères Explosibles)

A European regulatory standard ensuring equipment is safe for use in explosive environments.

Covers all industrial equipment, including mixers, kettles, reactors, and process tanks used in volatile atmospheres.

Ensures compliance with 2014/34/EU (equipment requirements) and 1999/92/EC (workplace safety).

🔹 ExP (Pressurized Enclosure Protection)

A specific explosion protection method using pressurized enclosures to prevent the entry of combustible gases or dust.

Allows standard electrical components—like motors, control panels, and sensors—to operate safely in ATEX-classified areas.

Ideal for custom-built mixing systems that require integrated control enclosures in hazardous locations.
