EXAIR’s ATEX Cabinet Cooler Systems are specifically engineered for use in hazardous environments, making them ideal for UL classified Zones 2 and 22—areas where explosive atmospheres may occur infrequently or for short durations.(visit our website)
EXAIR ATEX Cabinet Coolers – Key Overview
- Certification Requirements: Must be used with a purge and vent system on the electrical panel to maintain ATEX certification
- Purge System Function: Designed to “flush” clean air into the panel, eliminating vapor and dust to create a non-hazardous environment before electrical operations begin
- Maximum Operating Pressure: Up to 8.6 BAR
- Maximum Inlet Air Temperature: 45°C
- Cooling Capacity Range:
- 1,000 to 5,600 BTU/hr
- Equivalent to 293 to 1,642 Watts
- Material Options:
- Aluminum
- 303 Stainless Steel (303SS)
- 316 Stainless Steel (316SS)
ATEX Compliance & Cabinet Cooler Identification
- Laser Marking for Identification
Each ATEX Cabinet Cooler is laser marked with its ATEX classification for quick and reliable reference during installation or inspection. - ATEX Nomenclature Standards
Classification follows the EN/IEC 60079-2 international standard for equipment used in explosive atmospheres, encompassing: - Three distinct zones based on frequency and duration of hazardous conditions
- Two categories of materials: gas/liquid and dust
- Approved Application Zones
EXAIR ATEX Cabinet Coolers are rated for: - Zone 2 – Areas with gas or vapor atmospheres that occur infrequently and briefly
- Zone 22 – Dust-prone environments with low probability of hazardous concentration
- ATEX Designation Breakdown
- Gas Atmospheres:
CE EX II 3 G Ex h IIC T3 Gc
- II: Equipment group (non-mining)
- 3 G: Category 3, suitable for gas
- Ex h: Non-electrical protection concept
- IIC: Gas group (includes hydrogen and acetylene)
- T3: Temperature class (max surface temp ≤ 200°C)
- Gc: Equipment protection level for gas
- Dust Atmospheres:
CE EX II 3 D Ex h IIIC 200°C Dc
- 3 D: Category 3, suitable for dust
- Ex h: Non-electrical protection concept
- IIIC: Dust group (conductive dust)
- 200°C: Max surface temperature
- Dc: Equipment protection level for dust
