Explosion-Proof (ATEX Rated) Conveyors

Introduction & Company Integration

We manufacture essential material handling equipment designed for operation in hazardous locations, protecting both personnel and facility assets. Our ATEX-compliant conveyors feature robust, anti-static construction, sealed motor housings, and grounding systems that eliminate potential ignition risks associated with sparks or high surface temperatures. We supply the reliable, compliant conveyance systems required for handling materials like powdered chemicals, flour, sugar, wood dust, and specific fuel byproducts.

Application Fields

• Flour and Feed Mills: Transporting grain, flour, and starches, which generate highly combustible organic dust clouds.

• Chemical Processing: Conveying fine chemical powders, pigments, or resins in areas classified as Zone 21 or Zone 22 (dust hazards).

• Wood Processing: Handling wood dust, pellets, and shavings, which are highly combustible when airborne.

• Petrochemical Vapors: Using specific motor and sensor ratings (Zone 1 or 2) for conveyors operating near solvent storage or extraction areas.

Product Specification

Material Selection Guide

Materials focus on conductivity, non-sparking properties, and thermal stability:

• Frame/Casing: Heavy-gauge structural steel or stainless steel, fully welded to prevent dust ingress, with clear grounding points.

• Rollers/Pulleys: Steel components fitted with internal grounding systems or constructed from non-sparking alloys (e.g., Aluminum Bronze) where direct contact is possible.

• Belting/Wipers: Certified Anti-Static (conductive) rubber or plastic material to ensure rapid dissipation of electrostatic charge.
