ATEX Certification Validity -- Shenzhen ZhongNuo Testing Technology Co., Ltd.
ATEX or IECEx certificates differ from domestic explosion-proof certificates (both the domestic explosion-proof certificate and the explosion-proof CCC certificate have a validity period of 5 years).
The certificate does not state an expiration date; does this mean the certificate is valid indefinitely?
ATEX certificates do not have an expiration date. ATEX certification involves a combination of product testing and factory inspections.
The validity of the certificate is maintained after each factory audit passes.
If the factory audit is not conducted according to schedule, the certificate becomes invalid immediately.
If the certification standards are updated and the certificate is not, the certificate will also become invalid.
