Classification and technical structure of hazardous areas
Correct zone classification and structured ATEX documentation is a prerequisite for safe operation in petrochemical plants and other process environments.
Cetec Energy supports:
- Creating and updating zone classification
- Review of existing ATEX documentation
- Assessment of installation practices in relation to classification
- Identifying discrepancies between documentation and actual execution
- Structuring ATEX governance in your organisation
Our efforts are based on the specific structure and history of the installation, including older panels and components where changes over time can affect the classification.
Technical verification and advice on equipment in Ex installations
ATEX environments require precise execution and correct equipment selection. Cetec Energy carries out both technical verification of ATEX environments as well as advice on and inspection of proper equipment in ATEX zones.
The review is conducted by experienced technicians and supervisors, with CompEx training and extensive knowledge of practical conditions and risk factors. At Cetec Energy, we focus on the actual condition of the installation and identify issues that may affect safety and compliance.
- Correct labelling and equipment selection according to zone
- Enclosure grades, seals and cable entries
- Protection principles and installation details
- Compliance with relevant standards
We regularly find that in some installations, the ATEX documentation is updated, while the installation has changed over time.
In this case, compliance only applies on paper - not in the real world where employees need to be able to go to work safely.
Here, our work starts with the actual execution - panels, components and classification - and then ensures that documentation and reality match.
This gives our customers a technically sound basis for both operations and further decisions.
