ATEX
The new accessories for hydraulic system of ATEX line comply with Health and Safety Requirements intended in 94/9/EC ATEX European Directive (explosive atmospheres) for equipments in Group II, category 2GD.
Designed for:
Equipment and machines used in environments subject to risk of explosion
RoHS compliancy
The majority of the standard products available in the ELESA catalogue are compliant with the European Directive 2002/95/CE (RoHS directive, Restriction on Hazardous Substances).
However, there are some exceptions for some products which are not yet compliant owing to technological limits in the field of research in raw materials hence not due to ELESA's direct responsibility.By clicking on each product code in the table, you can directly check the status of the product as to RoHS compliancy.
All compliant products are supplied with a label showing the RoHS symbol.

ATEX directive compliance
The plugs of the TN. series comply with Health and Safety Requirements intended in 94/9/EC ATEX European Directive (explosive atmospheres) for equipments in Group II, category 2GD. Plugs have “k” protection degree and can therefore be mounted in equipments protected by means of “immersion in liquid”, without lowering protection degree.
II 2 G D k T5, marked on the TN. plugs, represents the identification according to the directive.
In more detail:
Ex: identification for explosion protection pursuant to ATEX directive 94/9/EC
II: equipment group II (places liable to be endangered by explosive atmospheres)
2: identification of the category
G: potentially explosive atmospheres through gases, vapors or mist
D: potentially explosive atmospheres through dust/air mixtures
k: protection degree by means of immersion in liquid (kX only for TN.3/4)
T5: temperature class
Ambient and/or fluid temperature: -30 ÷ +100 °C
Every product codes will be supplied with declaration of conformity to European Directives.
Technical data
An adequate tightening torque (see table) is recommended when screwing the plug, so as to guarantee optimal tightness without any deformation of the packing ring. Suggested tightening torque is the result of laboratory tests carried out at ambient temperature (23°C) with plug, packing ring and reservoir walls perfectly cleaned.
