Understanding the Global Requirements for Hazardous Locations Equipment


April 6, 2022 3 p.m. (+5:30 GMT) 1 hour

The global demand for hazardous locations (HazLoc) equipment has grown in recent years and will continue to grow.

Applicable regulations require that manufacturers prove that their equipment meets the requirements for use in HazLoc. It is critical that manufacturers of HazLoc equipment understand and accept this responsibility and demonstrate their commitment to safety and quality – for their business and their customers.

This webinar will help you understand the individual requirements of the following certifications for HazLoc products: North American, IECEx, ATEX, and UKCA.


Understanding these certification requirements will help you consider:

In which countries/regions you want to sell your products

  • What certifications are required by those markets
  • What markings have the most appeal in that location
  • How to be competitive in the global marketplace

Certifications of equipment intended for use in explosive atmospheres (hazardous locations) around the world are all based on standards and defined protocols.


Key Takeaways

  • Learn what qualifies as a hazardous location
  • Explore existing global certification requirements
  • Review new requirements according to UKCA
  • Understand differences and similarities of these requirements
  • Identify efficient testing and certification solutions
