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 indicate an expiration date. Does that 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 inspection isn't done according to schedule, the certificate is directly invalidated.
If the standards for certification are updated and the certificate is not, it will also become invalid.
What is the significance of IECEx certification for explosion-proof products? -- Shenzhen Zhongnuo Testing Technology Co., Ltd.
In accordance with the IECEx standard for international explosion-proof certification, the purpose is to ensure an appropriate level of safety for explosion-proof electrical products.
1. Reduce manufacturers' certification costs and time to market
Maintain international standards during product evaluation
3. Enter a global database
4. Maintain equipment and services under IECEx certification to meet international standards
What is the IECEx certificate application process? -- Shenzhen Zhongnuo Testing Technology Co., Ltd.
IECEx member states' certification bodies recognized and authorized by the IECEx system are referred to as IECEx Certified Bodies (ExCB). Only ExCBs are authorized to conduct IECEx system explosion-proof product certification.
ExCB is primarily responsible for the following certification tasks:
1. Accept IECEx certification applications.
2. Organize Explosion Proof Testing Laboratory (ExTL) to conduct Explosion Proof Type Testing on the products applying for certification (including explosion-proof review of technical drawings and documents, as well as prototype testing).
3. Review Explosion-Proof Report (ExTR)
4. Conduct factory quality condition inspections for manufacturers applying for certification, compile and review the Factory Quality Condition Report (QAR).
5. Make the decision on certification.
6. Contact the IECEx Secretariat for issuance of IECEx certification.
7. Conduct annual supervision for manufacturers already holding an IECEx certification.
Imported explosion-proof equipment now holds IECEx certification. How can it be converted to a domestic explosion-proof certification?
If the imported equipment has a valid IECEx certification, it can be converted into a domestic explosion-proof certification.
Please provide the original IECEx certification Certificate and Report, as well as product drawings and other relevant documents for review by ZhongNuo Inspection.
Check if any relevant testing is needed.
