Distribution panels are ATEX and IEC approved for use in Zones 1-2 and 21-22 and offer multiple solutions for power distribution, lighting, heat tracing, control valves and more. Motor starters are used in areas where hazardous materials are handled or stored – Zones 1-2 and 21-22. These units are available in multiple configurations and provide full protection for motors. Appleton's ATX motor starters are made of corrosion-resistant marine grade aluminum to withstand wet, humid and caustic environments.
