Can I apply for ATEX certification in China? Which institutions can apply for an ATEX certification?
ATEX certification generally refers to the EU's explosion-proof certification; explosion-proof products exported to the EU region require this certification.
To apply for ATEX certification, companies can seek domestic application agencies, and the testing can also be conducted domestically. However, the certification authority must be an EU Notified Body (NB).
Currently, common institutions include Germany's TÜV, Canada's CSA, Slovakia's TI, Italy's ECM, and France's BV, among others.
ATEX certification is divided into different certification models based on the explosion-proof grade.
Certification modes vary, as do the costs and requirements. Customers can choose according to their actual needs.
If you're looking to export explosion-proof products, feel free to PM Shenzhen Zhongnuo Testing Technology Co., Ltd. for a discussion on specific international explosion-proof certification requirements.

The EU has restricted the issuance of ATEX certification to only authorized notification 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 announcement.
Commonly compared ATEX notified bodies include TÜV Süddeutschland, TÜV Nord, TÜV Rheinland, DNV, BV, QS, DEKRA, EUROFINS, UL, CSA, ECM, and more.

Certification models for the ATEX explosion-proof certification directive include the following:
(1) Mode A: Internal Production Control
(2) B Mode: EC Type Testing. Documentation Review + Product Testing
(3) C Model: Conforms to type. A method of quality assurance, with annual sampling inspections conducted
(4) D Mode: Explosion Protection System Certification. Factory explosion protection system audit, includes annual review, EN ISO-IEC 80079-34-2011 (EN 13980)
(5) E-Mode: Product Quality Assurance System. Factory explosion-proof system audit, with annual review, EN ISO-IEC 80079-34-2011 (EN 13980)
(6) F Mode: Product Verification. A method of quality assurance, verifying each batch of goods before export.
(7) G Mode: Unit Certification. Batch certification for a specific product

Explosion-proof electrical products, also known as Ex products, must obtain explosion-proof certification before being allowed to be used in explosive hazardous areas.
To eliminate unnecessary repetitive testing and certification of Ex products across international borders,
Established in 1996 to promote international trade, the guo ji diangong hui Explosion-Proof Electrical Product Certification Organization, abbreviated as IECEx certification system, was officially founded.
