If you are manufacturing products intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres, you must provide assurance that your equipment will not cause an explosion during routine operation. Demonstrating compliance with the ATEX Directive 94/9/EC will provide that assurance. It is mandatory for these products to bear both the Distinctive Community Mark (the Ex Mark in hexagon) and CE marking before being sold in the EU. In addition, ATEX is frequently a contract specification for countries outside of Europe.
