ATEX Level Switches
About our ATEX Level Switches
ATEX level switches offer all of the functionality of conventional level switches, with the added design specification of suitability in potentially explosive environments. Level switches are a vital component for process control in fluidics, and are typically used to measure single or multiple levels within a chamber.
Our ATEX certified switches comply with the 1996 regulations directed at all machines, apparatus and control components that are capable of causing an explosion or are used in the processing of a potentially explosive material. The range is based on our conventional switches, which have been modified and rigorously tested for intrinsic safety in hazardous atmospheres.
