LOCKEN’s latest innovation in cable free access control, powered by contactless technology, wins certification from health & safety regulator ATEX, in accordance with new explosive atmosphere requirements. Approved to ATEX II 2 G Ex ib IIB T4, the solution is suitable for gas delivery and regulation stations, specific hydrocarbon processing and distribution infrastructures and chemical factory enclosures.

It is also suitable for areas where an explosive mixture of gas, vapour or mist may ‘occasionally’ occur in ‘normal operation’. The contactless solution meets strict legislation concerning equipment and protective systems intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres, which are most prevalent in the energy, chemicals, timber, household waste and food and drink industries.
