The RCB’s spark-resistant design is certified to ATEX standards to ensure safer lifting in dust-laden or explosive gas atmospheres. The RCB is specifically designed for use in petroleum and pharmaceutical, or any application where safety is improved by the use of anti-sparking equipment. Be sure to look for the ATEX mark to know that your hoist is safe to use in environments with combustible gases, vapours and dusts. Potentially explosive atmospheres often relate to high temperatures. The RCB is proven to take the heat and safely operate at temperatures as high as 135°C.
Conforms to ATEX StandardsThe RCB hand chain hoist conforms to the European ATEX directive 94/9/EC for certified use in potentially explosive atmospheres. ATEX is a multi-level technical standard mandatory in the European Economic Area (EEA) for using equipment in dust-laden or explosive environments. |
