Different zones are distinguished within the ATEX Directive, including Zone 1 (gas explosion hazard) and Zone 21 (dust explosion hazard). In these environments, even a small ignition source can lead to an explosion. Therefore, control cabinets must meet very strict requirements in terms of design, material selection and sealing.   <\/p><p class=\"PlaygroundEditorTheme__paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">For engineers and purchasers, this means that a cabinet must not only be electrically correctly constructed, but must also demonstrably comply with the safety regulations of ATEX 114 (2014\/34\/EU) and the international standard IEC 60079. This ensures that the installation can operate safely and is immediately approved during inspections. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b8b4b32 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"b8b4b32\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-64b39bc elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"64b39bc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Important standards and guidelines<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-26b39df elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"26b39df\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">ATEX 114 (2014\/34\/EU)<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-053b3a8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"053b3a8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"PlaygroundEditorTheme__paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">The <b><strong class=\"PlaygroundEditorTheme__textBold\">ATEX 114 directive<\/strong><\/b> is the European regulation for equipment used in explosive environments.

In EPLAN Pro Panel, the cabinet is built virtually, including choice of materials, IP protection and cable entries. During this stage, zone classification and the technical requirements of ATEX 114 and IEC 60079 are taken into account.  <\/p><p class=\"PlaygroundEditorTheme__paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">In the construction phase, the cabinet is assembled from suitable materials such as stainless steel, aluminum or polyester, and fitted with explosion-proof glands, gaskets and seals. All internal wiring is carried out in accordance with NEN 60204-1, ensuring electrical safety. <\/p><p class=\"PlaygroundEditorTheme__paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">The cabinet is then subjected to a Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) to verify correct construction and wiring. Installation is followed by the Site Acceptance Test (SAT), where the cabinet is tested in the actual operating environment. Finally, all documentation is provided, including markings and schematics, so that the cabinet can be demonstrably used in accordance with ATEX.

class=\"PlaygroundEditorTheme__paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">Designing and building ATEX control cabinets for Zone 1 and Zone 21 requires in-depth knowledge of the applicable standards and the specific risks in explosive environments. Companies operating in petrochemicals, offshore or food &amp; bulk handling need cabinets that are not only robust, but also demonstrably compliant with ATEX 114 (2014\/34\/EU) and IEC 60079. However, for many organizations it is a challenge to fully translate this into a practical and safe design.  <\/p><p class=\"PlaygroundEditorTheme__paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">Kwadrant IA combines expertise in panel construction and hardware engineering with years of experience in applying international guidelines. We design our control cabinets in EPLAN Pro Panel, use only suitable materials and perform strict checks during the construction phase. Then FAT and SAT tests ensure that the cabinets function safely, both in the workshop and in the final operating environment.  <\/p><p class=\"PlaygroundEditorTheme__paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">With Kwadrant IA, you are choosing a partner who puts safety, quality and reliability first. Our solutions can be used in a variety of sectors and offer the assurance that your installation will be approved immediately upon inspection.
