Stober Drives has confirmed that its MGS range of helical inline, helical worm, helical shaft mounted and helical bevel geared motors or geared units all are compliant with the ATEX 100a directive. The EC Directive 94/9/EC must have been adopted by the EU member states by 1st July 2003 as national law. However, it has been law in Germany since 1996.

An ignition hazard assessment has been conducted for the Stober MGS gear units and the following classifications were made.

Specified categories and temperature ranges of Stober gear units are II 2 G c/k T4; II 2 D c/k 120C.

Units ordered to ATEX 100a standards receive a separate specification plate indicating the selected classification.

All ATEX approved geared motors and geared units up to 5.5kW and size 5 helical inline and size 4 helical worm for use in hazardous areas can be assembled quickly and smartly using the assembly line in the UK at the company's head office in Waltham Abbey.

Stober Drives' standard three-year warrantee still applies to ATEX-approved solutions, giving piece of mind to the end user.
