This article provides the Explosion Ratings for Elo Touch Products
The majority of Elo products hold certification in compliance with UL 62368-1 standards. This entails ensuring that under both normal and abnormal operational conditions, there is no risk of explosion. UL certification documentation is provided within the agency approval packages accompanying each product's specification page, accessible at www.elotouch.com.
Regarding "explosion proof" or "anti-explosion" specifications, Elo does not offer pre-configured products with these certifications. Should you necessitate such specifications, we encourage you to collaborate with your designated Elo sales manager to establish a custom Stock Keeping Unit (SKU) tailored to meet your certification needs. For further information, please refer to the custom product page available on our website: https://www.elotouch.com/custom-products

Certifying a computer product as explosion-proof typically involves adherence to specific industry standards and regulations. While the exact certifications required can vary depending on the product's intended use and the jurisdiction in which it will be deployed, some common certifications and standards that may apply include:
1. ATEX Certification: ATEX (ATmosphères EXplosibles) certification is mandated in the European Union for equipment intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. It ensures that the product meets stringent safety requirements to prevent ignition sources in such environments.
2. IECEx Certification: The IECEx (International Electrotechnical Commission System for Certification to Standards Relating to Equipment for Use in Explosive Atmospheres) certification is recognized internationally and signifies compliance with global standards for equipment used in hazardous areas.
3. UL Certification: Underwriters Laboratories (UL) certification is commonly required in North America and signifies that the product has been tested and meets safety standards set by UL, including those related to explosion-proofing.
4. NEC/NFPA Compliance: Compliance with regulations such as the National Electrical Code (NEC) and standards set by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) may be necessary in certain jurisdictions, particularly in the United States.
5. ATEX Directive: Compliance with the ATEX Directive (Directive 2014/34/EU) is required for products sold in the European Union that are intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. This directive outlines specific requirements for equipment safety in such environments.
6. CSA Certification: The Canadian Standards Association (CSA) certification is similar to UL certification and is often required for products sold in Canada to ensure compliance with safety standards.
7. ISO Standards: ISO standards related to quality management systems and product safety may also be relevant, depending on the specific requirements of the product and its intended market.
