ATEX switches are designed for the safe operation, switching and control of electrical circuits in installations located in explosive atmospheres. At Inpratex, we offer a range of ATEX-certified switches for hazardous areas, suitable for industrial environments where flammable gases, vapours, mists or combustible dust may be present. Our range includes Ex d aluminium switches, Ex e GRP switches and special ATEX switches for specific applications. These solutions allow control, switching, isolation or local operation functions to be carried out safely, both in lighting installations and in machinery, electrical panels, auxiliary equipment or control systems in hazardous areas.
ATEX switches are available in different configurations depending on the application, mounting type, enclosure material, number of poles, rated current and environmental conditions of the installation. Depending on the selected model, they can be used in hazardous areas with the presence of gas or dust, ensuring reliable operation in demanding industrial environments.
Ex d aluminium switches provide a robust solution for applications requiring explosion-proof enclosures, while Ex e GRP switches stand out for their light weight, corrosion resistance and good performance in industrial environments. In addition, special ATEX switches make it possible to cover specific requirements such as foot-operated switching, particular control functions or non-standard applications.
These solutions are suitable for chemical and petrochemical plants, refineries, pharmaceutical facilities, process areas, storage areas for flammable products, offshore platforms, the marine industry, power plants and other environments where certified electrical equipment for explosive atmospheres is essential.
At Inpratex, we help you select the most suitable ATEX switch according to the installation zone, type of explosive atmosphere, required function, operating current, enclosure material, type of actuator and the specific conditions of each project.
