Explosion Proof Switches & Sensors

ATEX Float Switches and ATEX Level Sensors

Deeter Electronics designs, manufactures and supplies a comprehensive range of hazardous area switches and sensors for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. Our portfolio includes hazardous location switches, ATEX level sensors, float switches, load cells and temperature devices, all engineered to meet the demanding requirements of industrial hazardous environments.

Our ATEX products and sensors are available with ATEX and IECEx certification, including ATEX approved level equipment suitable for use in Zone 1 and Zone 2 applications. Many products are certified to Ex d Explosion Proof standards, allowing installation in hazardous areas without the need for an intrinsic safety barrier.

ATEX & IECEx Approved Sensors and Switches

The Deeter Electronics hazardous area range includes both Explosion Proof and Intrinsically Safe solutions, giving engineers flexibility when designing systems for challenging environments. Our ATEX sensors and ATEX approved sensors are designed for reliability, longevity and global compliance.

Products within the range include:

    • ATEX level switch solutions for point level detection in liquids
    • Continuous ATEX level sensors for accurate level monitoring
    • ATEX certified sensor options for use in aggressive or high-temperature processes
    • hazardous area temperature switches for thermal protection and control
    • hazardous location switches suitable for use in oil, gas, chemical and process industries

All ATEX sensors and switches are manufactured to exacting standards and are suitable for use in explosive atmospheres, with ATEX and IECEx approvals recognised in most regions worldwide.

Each product within this range forms part of our wider hazardous area switches and hazardous location switches offering, designed to meet international safety standards without compromising performance.

Additional Information

What are hazardous area sensors?
Hazardous area sensors are devices designed to operate safely in environments where flammable gases, vapours, mists or dust may be present. They are commonly used in industries such as chemical processing, fuel storage, oil and gas, manufacturing and industrial automation where equipment must reduce the risk of ignition.
What are hazardous area products?
Hazardous area products are electrical or mechanical devices that have been designed for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. These can include sensors, switches, indicators, barriers and level control equipment that meet recognised safety standards such as ATEX or IECEx.
What is an ATEX sensor?
An ATEX sensor is a sensor that has been certified for use in potentially explosive atmospheres under European ATEX requirements. These sensors are designed to operate safely without creating sparks, excessive heat or other ignition risks in hazardous areas.
What are hazardous area switches used for?
Hazardous area switches are used to detect, control or monitor processes in locations where explosive atmospheres may occur. They can be used for applications such as liquid level detection, proximity sensing, temperature control and equipment status monitoring.
When do you need ATEX certified sensors?
ATEX certified sensors are required when equipment is being used in an area where flammable gases, vapours, dusts or mists could create an explosive atmosphere. The correct sensor type depends on the application, zone classification, substance present and required protection method.
