Steps to Obtain Consultation and Quotation

1. Define Requirements: Specify the hazardous zone classification (Zone 1, 2, 21, 22), voltage, current, and environmental conditions.
2. Contact Suppliers: Reach out to R. STAHL, Atex Delvalle, or Shenhai with technical specifications for a tailored quotation.
3. Request Certification Support: If needed, coordinate with SGS Finland or equivalent certification bodies to ensure ATEX/IECEx compliance.

Additional Considerations

• Ensure the supplier provides documentation for ATEX/IECEx compliance and any additional certifications required for Finland.
• Consider material selection (stainless steel vs. GRP) based on environmental exposure and temperature extremes.
• For large-scale or specialized projects, request technical consultation to optimize layout, safety, and functionality. By following these steps, you can obtain a reliable quotation and ensure that explosion-proof distribution boxes meet Finnish and EU safety standards while being tailored to your specific hazardous environment needs.
