ATEX lighting fixtures Zone 22 are certified luminaires intended for industrial environments classified as Zone 22 under the ATEX directive (Directive 2014/34/EU). Zone 22 is defined as an area where combustible dust atmospheres are not expected during regular operations, but may appear infrequently due to abnormal conditions such as equipment leaks, dust discharge, cleaning processes or temporary disturbances. Although the risk level is lower than in Zone 21, lighting fixtures must still comply with ATEX EX dust protection standards to avoid ignition.

These luminaires are built with dust-tight enclosures, reinforced seals, anti-static materials and LED components that remain safe even when exposed to dust accumulation. ATEX Zone 22 fixtures are tested according to EN 60079-31, ensuring they meet strict requirements for surface temperature limits, ingress protection, mechanical durability and safe operation in dusty industrial environments.

Typical applications include areas near packaging lines, conveyor belts, grain handling facilities, food processing plants, wood and paper industries, storage silos, powder filling stations and any zone where dust may occasionally become airborne. These lighting fixtures provide stable illumination, long lifespan and reliable performance even under challenging industrial conditions.

Choosing ATEX lighting fixtures for Zone 22 helps companies maintain operational safety, comply with hazardous area regulations and reduce potential ignition risks caused by dust deposits or temporary dust clouds.
