IECEx03-5 / ATEX & VCA Certification
IECEx03-5 Certification is voluntary and for repair shops or companies that design, install, maintain or inspect EX installations.
This certification demonstrates competence in ATEX and/or IECEx through independent certification. It is based on the international technical standard IEC-60079-19 and on ISO9001 quality standards.
What are the benefits of this certification?
End users who are subject to ATEX or IECEx standards must ensure that EX equipment is correctly installed, maintained and, if necessary, repaired or overhauled.
The repair of EX equipment is subject to certain rules; the end user must therefore ensure that a repair or overhaul is carried out by competent persons in order to guarantee that the equipment is still explosion-proof after overhaul or repair.
Working in accordance with IEC60079-19 when repairing or overhauling ATEX equipment is an obligation, but demonstrating this compliance is not mandatory.
This is why IECEx 03 has been developed: this worldwide certification scheme is voluntary in Europe, but offers a good opportunity to demonstrate competence in repair and overhaul.
