Volt Stick EX230

The Volt Stick EX230 is an ATEX / IECEx-approved, intrinsically-safe version of our market-leading 230v AC  non-contact voltage tester.

Providing an instant and safe checking device, the Volt Stick EX230 tests for the presence of an AC voltage, without making any disconnections in cables, wall sockets, fuses, circuit breakers, junction boxes, etc.

This certified intrinsically-safe version version of the Volt Stick instant voltage tester is approved for use in explosive atmospheres / hazardous areas such as chemical plants, oil refineries and off-shore rigs.

Approvals: Ex ib IIB T3 Gb, IECEx ExV 16.0018. (Click here to Download Conformity Certificates)

What is ATEX Approval?

ATEX is the formal name given to the two European Directives for controlling explosive atmospheres. We take an in-depth look at ATEX Approval and its requirements for equipment in hazardous areas.
