Importance of using certified technicians for hazardous area motor repairs

By Steve Ormondroyd, Workshop Manager

Here are pictures of a KSB Amarex hazardous area pump before and aftBy Steve Ormondroyd, er it  had been fully refurbished in our workshop.

When electrical or electronic equipment is used in areas designated as hazardous, it must be ATEX certified as required by two EU directives. 

Our engineers are AEMT certified to repair ATEX low, medium and high voltage EX motors. We mainly repair motors from industrial compressors, pumps or fans which have been operating in hazardous areas.

It is essential that businesses with motors operating in hazardous areas use certified technicians to undertake repair work. Failure to do so could result in serious consequences in the event of an accident.
