Load Cells for Hazardous Areas
Equipment and products operating in hazardous areas are required to meet stringent criteria. They must be ‘protected’ to avoid the possibility that they could become a source of ignition. Weighing systems are often an integral part of a process within the hazardous area and therefore must have suitable protection.
Thames Side Sensors, as a manufacturer and supplier of weighing equipment, complies with the ATEX 95 equipment directive 94/9/EC(also known as Article 100a and Article 95). We are a market leader in the design and manufacture of load cells for weighing in hazardous areas, having developed a range of load cells specifically designed for such demanding applications, for example chemical weighing.
