Hazardous Area Inspections
Our hazardous area inspections ensure compliance with ATEX and DSEAR regulations through comprehensive assessments of electrical installations in explosive atmospheres. Using CompEx-certified engineers, we identify risks and provide detailed reports to maintain safety standards in chemical, pharmaceutical, and industrial facilities.
ATEX Installations
We design and install ATEX-certified electrical systems for hazardous environments, including zone 1/2 gas and zone 21/22 dust areas. Our solutions incorporate lighting, control panels, and emergency systems that meet strict EU directives for petrochemical plants, distilleries, and fuel storage sites.
Planned Maintenance
Our planned preventative maintenance (PPM) programs prevent equipment failures in critical electrical systems. By scheduling regular inspections and repairs, we help industrial clients maintain operational continuity while extending the lifespan of plant equipment in hazardous environments.
Tank Gauging Systems
We implement advanced tank gauging systems for industrial storage facilities, providing real-time monitoring of liquid levels in hazardous environments. These ATEX-compliant solutions integrate with remote cloud platforms for enhanced safety and operational efficiency in chemical and fuel storage applications.
DSEAR Assessments
Our DSEAR assessments identify explosive atmosphere risks in workplaces handling dangerous substances. We provide classification drawings and mitigation strategies to ensure compliance with UK regulations for industries including food processing, paint manufacturing, and grain storage facilities.
