The ATEX guideline has been in force in the European Union since 2003 and is applicable for pneumatic components among others. “The certification of our air actuator products was an important step. We can now supply our industrial customers with an alternative design for pneumatic applications in potentially explosive areas,” explains Dr. Olaf Kluth, segment manager at ContiTech Air Spring Systems. For more than 50 years, ContiTech air springs and air actuators have been used for an extremely wide range of industrial applications. ContiTech air springs and air actuators exhibit uniquely impressive product properties and long service life under demanding operating conditions.
