ATEX Transformer Manufacturer
Our hazardous area manufacturing team offer an extensive range of ATEX, IECEx and FM certified transformers. Our transformer range is used in pharmaceutical, offshore, chemical and petroleum sectors.
Experts in ATEX Transformers
As industry-leading experts, we specialise in the design and manufacture of ATEX transformers.
R Baker (Electrical) Ltd offers unrivalled expertise in the design and manufacture of ATEX transformers tailored for hazardous areas. Our skilled team ensures precision engineering for both Zone 1 and Zone 2 environments, strictly adhering to essential safety standards.
We specialise in creating ATEX transformers built to customer specifications that comply with IECEx standards, engineered for intrinsic safety and explosion protection. With extensive experience in the petrochemical, pharmaceutical, and oil & gas sectors, we deliver bespoke solutions tailored to your specific requirements.
In environments where flammable gases, vapours, or dust are present, our ATEX transformers are essential for safe and reliable power distribution. Specially designed for hazardous areas, these transformers offer robust and efficient solutions for powering critical equipment while minimising ignition risks and potential accidents.
ATEX certified transformers
Our custom-built single-phase and three-phase transformers comply with strict ATEX and IECEx standards, ensuring safety in explosive environments like Zone 1 and Zone 2. R Baker (Electrical) Ltd maintains relationships with clients worldwide and has strong links to Aberdeen, providing reliable and compliant solutions for hazardous areas across various industries.
ATEX Zone 1 transformers
ATEX Zone 2 transformers
ATEX Zone 2 refers to areas where an explosive atmosphere is not likely to occur during normal operations, but if it does, it will only persist for a short period. This is different from Zone 1, where explosive atmospheres are likely to occur periodically during normal operations. At R Baker (Electrical) Ltd, our ATEX Zone 2 transformers are designed to meet these specific requirements, ensuring safe operation and compliance with relevant safety standards in less frequently hazardous environments.
What is a ATEX compliant transformer?
ATEX compliant transformers are certified to prevent ignition sources, ensuring safe operation in explosive atmospheres like Zone 1 and Zone 2. They adhere to standards such as EN 60079 and IECEx. Certification includes issuing certificates like the ATEX Type Examination Certificate and the ATEX Quality Assurance Notification, verifying that the transformers meet stringent safety and performance requirements.
ATEX Transformer Design
Our ATEX transformer design leverages advanced CAD technology and extensive ATEX design experience. Our expert team ensures each transformer meets stringent safety standards for hazardous areas. By utilising precise CAD design, we create custom solutions that provide optimal performance and reliability in explosive environments.
Safety is Paramount
Safety is paramount in these environments, and our ATEX transformers are built to the highest standards. With rugged construction and explosion-proof design, they ensure reliable power distribution without compromising safety. Each transformer undergoes meticulous testing and certification to meet the stringent requirements of international standards, such as ATEX and IECEx, providing peace of mind for operators and personnel in hazardous locations.

ATEX transformer quotes
Quotes for explosion proof equipment tend to take longer to produce than our standard 24 hour turnaround. This is due to the unique application and design process.
Lead times
Lead times for explosion proof can depend on your specification. The average lead time is 6 weeks from order.
Hazardous Area range
Our standard enclosure are EJB and EJB INX. This range includes steel and stainless steel enclosures.
Case Study –
NOV Wellbore Technologies
We were commissioned by NOV Wellbore Technologies to manufacture two transformers for use in Zone 1 environments. Our expert ATEX team designed 30kVA and 15kVA ATEX certified transformers.
Both Zone 1 transformers are air-cooled isolating transformers intended for use on an offshore platform. The ATEX Transformers were enclosed in custom-made stainless steel cases to meet offshore requirements.
This project was time-sensitive and required completion within a 4-week period to align with maintenance schedules. Despite needing to pass through client design approval processes, we successfully met the deadline.
