Safety solutions in Explosive Atmospheres – ReeR Spa
ATEX-Certified Safety controllers: The Mosaic RV Range
The term ATEX (Atmosphère Explosibles) refers to the European certification required for all equipment sold within the European Union that is intended for installation in potentially explosive environments. Safeguarding industrial facilities in such conditions presents unique challenges for both machinery and operators.
The ATEX framework is based on the European directive 2014/34/EU that requires companies to assess whether their facilities include areas at risk of explosion.
HazLoc (Hazardous Location) certification, on the other hand, primarily applies to North America and Canada and aims to control explosion risks in certain atmospheres. This certification is evaluated by UL in compliance with standards UL 121201:9ED 2017-09-15 and CSA C22.2 NO. 213-17, covering electrical equipment for use in hazardous (classified) locations.
Industries such as chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, food, and maritime often face these risks, making it essential to rely on manufacturers who provide reliable, modular, and regulation-compliant solutions.
The Mosaic RV range from ReeR Safety addresses these needs, offering advanced safety control solutions for complex environments. With ATEX Zone 2 and HazLoc certifications, as well as compliance with international standards, Mosaic RV ensures safety, reliability, and flexible integration in any type of facility. The RV versions include the main units M1S RV and M1S COM RV, along with expansion modules MI8O4 RV, MA4 V, and MBC V.
