Additions to the explosion triangle: Oxidants Confinement Mixing Fuel Ignition Source ATEX – Explained The ATEX Directive is an EU legislation which affects all industries where powder, dusts, liquids and vapours are present. Its primary function is to eliminate the possibility of explosions and applies to electrical and mechanical equipment intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. The term "equipment" is defined as: ‘any item which contains or constitutes a potential ignition source and which requires special measures to be incorporated in its design and/or its installation in order to prevent the ignition source from initiating an explosion in the surrounding atmosphere.’
