b.Equipment Group & Category Classification
ATEX classifies equipment by Group and Category according to the type of explosive atmosphere and the level of protection required.
| Group | Application Area | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Group I | Underground mining | For coal mines where methane and coal dust are present |
| Group II | Surface industries | For all other industrial environments with gas or dust risks |
| Group | Category | Zone Type | Safety Level | Temp. (surface doesn't exceed) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| I | M1 | Continuous explosive atmospheres | Very high – must remain safe even if explosive mixture is present |
T1 - 450°C/842°F T2 T3 T4 T5 T6 |
| M2 | Explosive atmosphere may occur occasionally | High – must shut down when hazardous | ||
| II | 1G*/1D* | Zone 0/ Zone 20 | Very high – for continuous exposure | |
| 2G* / 2D* | Zone 1 / Zone 21 | High – for occasional exposure | ||
| 3G* / 3D* | Zone 2 / Zone 22 | Standard – for rare or abnormal exposure | ||
| *G = Gas, D = Dust | ||||
