ATEX directive
The ATEX Directive is a European law that became mandatory on July 1, 2003, and governs all electrical and mechanical equipment used in potentially explosive atmospheres, such as those found in chemical and pharmaceutical plants. Also known as ATEX 95, ATEX 100a, or the equipment directive, it pertains to equipment and protective systems that can have their own source of ignition and is covered under ATEX directive 94/9/EC.From: Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients [2019], Sensors for Safety and Process Control in Hydrogen Technologies [2019]

The Equipment and Protective Systems Intended for Use in Potentially Explosive Atmospheres Regulations 1996 (SI 1996/192) were made by the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry, coming into force on 1 March 1996. They were amended by the Equipment and Protective Systems Intended for Use in Potentially Explosive Atmospheres (Amendment) Regulations 2001 (SI 2001/3766). In Northern Ireland, the regulations are the Equipment and Protective Systems Intended for Use in Potentially Explosive Atmospheres Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1996 (SR 1996/247). They implement the provisions of Directive 94/9/EC, the so-called ATEX Directive. From here on in, they will be referred to as the EPS Regulations.

Similarly, the manufacturer must ensure that the assembly is compatible with the specific conditions of use, e.g., for the use of an explosive atmosphere, the requirements and guidelines of ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU [21] must be applied.
