ATEX Certification Application
The EU has restricted the issuance of ATEX certification to only be conducted by notified bodies within the EU to control the safety performance of explosion-proof equipment.
Currently, there were 24 notified bodies involved in the ATEX Directive.
As of May 21, 2014, 67 European institutions have obtained authorization from the EU Notice.
Commonly compared ATEX notified bodies include TÜV Süddeutschland, TÜV Nord, TÜV Rheinland, DNV, BV, QS, DEKRA, EUROFINS, UL, CSA, ECM, and more.

What is the difference between ATEX certification and CE certification?
CE certification is a mandatory certification for the EU market, and all equipment and products entering the EU must pass the relevant CE directive certification.
For instance, we have EMC directives, LVD directives, MD directives, and ATEX directives, etc.
Different products are subject to various certification directives, with the ATEX directive specifically targeting explosion-proof equipment and products.
ATEX certification can be likened to the CE certification for explosion-proof products.
Each directive has different applicable standards; the ATEX directive applies to the EN60079 series.
Different explosion-proof types are applicable to different standard series.
For example, EN 60079.1 is the standard for explosion-proof, EN 60079.7 is the standard for increased safety, EN 60079.11 is the standard for intrinsic safety, and so on.

Can an ATEX certificate be used directly in China? -- Shenzhen ZhongNuo Testing Technology Co., Ltd.
ATEX certification is applicable to all EU member states but does not serve as a permit for selling explosion-proof products domestically in China.
We have our own explosion-proof certification system. Explosion-proof products sold domestically must pass our explosion-proof certification, not the ATEX certification.
But this does not mean we do not recognize the ATEX certification.
Instead, products that have passed the ATEX certification can enhance their competitiveness.
ATEX certification and explosion-proof certification share many similar standards, such as the extensive adoption of IECEx certification standards.
If the product has passed the ATEX certification, it is beneficial for applying for domestic explosion-proof certification.
Certainly, domestic explosion-proof products typically go through the explosion-proof certification process first before considering export, and then apply for ATEX certification.

What are the applications for IECEx certification? -- Shenzhen Zhongnuo Testing Technology Co., Ltd.
IECEx is an international certification, and there are also several ExCB and ExTL in China.
It's widely known that the process for applying for IECEx certification is quite complex, and the standard certification cycle takes 5-6 months.
During the certification process, it is also necessary to provide and modify various certification materials and technical documents. Many companies have indicated that they cannot handle this.
So there are also many IECEx certified agents on the market, such as Shenzhen Zhongnuo Testing Technology Co., Ltd.
We are well-versed in the product standards of the IECEx certification (IEC 60079 series) and the system standards (ISO 80079-34).
Familiar with the entire process, capable of assisting in compiling technical documents with the provided certification materials.
We can assist with the initial explosion-proof product design and modifications, as well as provide factory explosion-proof system training for corporate clients.
To ensure the company's application for IECEx certification.
