FluidInspectIR® ATEX inline oil condition monitor for explosive atmospheres
ATEX & IECEx certification
Certified for the most demanding hazardous area classifications

The FluidInspectIR® ATEX is independently certified for use in both gas-classified (Zone 1) and dust-classified (Zone 21) explosive atmospheres — meeting the stringent ATEX directive and IECEx international standard.

Hazardous area classification
Gas atmosphere
ATEX Zone 1
Areas where explosive gas/air mixtures are likely to occur in normal operation
Dust atmosphere
ATEX Zone 21
Areas where explosive dust clouds are likely to be present in normal operation
Standards & compliance

IECEx compliant — internationally recognised certification for equipment used in explosive atmospheres, accepted across Europe, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, and beyond.

ATEX directive — EU directive 2014/34/EU covering equipment and protective systems intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres.

Technical specification
Same measurement platform. Intrinsically safe enclosure.

Full MIR, OPC & Viscosity capability in a certified explosion-proof housing — no compromise on measurement performance for hazardous area installations.
