The ATEX inspection checklist helps ensure your facility complies with essential explosion protection requirements in hazardous areas. It guides you through evaluating equipment safety features, zone classifications, and critical documentation. When conducting routine inspections, you can efficiently verify explosion-proof enclosures and protection systems without missing crucial safety elements.

For example, European Union law requires that employers ensure the safety and health of workers who may be exposed to explosive atmospheres. Operations of facilities where such risks exist must prepare an explosion protection document. Our template aids you in this while providing evidence of compliance during regulatory audits.

Frequently asked questions

What should I do if I find equipment with damaged explosion protection during an inspection?

Immediately tag the equipment as “Do Not Use” and remove it from the hazardous area if possible. Document the issue in detail on the checklist, including photos. Arrange for repair by qualified personnel with ATEX certification or replace with properly rated equipment before returning to service.

How can I determine the correct zone classification for my inspection?

Review your facility’s explosion protection document which should include hazardous area classification drawings. Zone classifications (0, 1, 2 for gas and 20, 21, 22 for dust) are based on the frequency and duration of explosive atmosphere occurrence. When in doubt, consult with a certified explosion protection specialist.

What documentation should accompany my completed ATEX inspection checklist?

Your completed checklist should be stored with equipment certificates of conformity, explosion protection document, maintenance records, and previous inspection reports. Also include any photographs of defects, repair documentation, and records of corrective actions taken following previous inspections.

How do I verify if the explosion protection type is appropriate for the zone?

Compare the equipment’s Ex marking (e.g., Ex d IIC T4 Gb) with your zone requirements. The protection type (d, e, i, etc.) must be suitable for the zone, the equipment group must match the gas/dust group, and the temperature class must be appropriate for substances present in your facility.
