Wolf Safety announces the launch of a new range of linkable ATEX Certified portable fluorescent luminaires, approved for use in Zone 1 (Cat 2) IIC T3/T4 Hazardous Areas, for heavy duty application in the most demanding of areas, such as the oil, gas & petrochemical industries and the utility markets.

Since its summer launch, the new ATEX Certified Worklite from Wolf Safety has received some excellent evaluations and has already achieved a notable level of sales from a variety of quarters. To date, 100 units have been sold to a leading UK offshore tank cleaner and maintenance contractor who has completely re-equipped his portable lighting needs with the ATEX Worklite. Other significant sales have come from utility companies, where the product is being used to light tunnels, sewers and drains.

Wolf has introduced a new LED Primary Cell Torch range, Certified to ATEX and IECEx by Baseefa (2001). The three torches in this TR-40 range incorporate high power LEDs, producing a flawless intense white beam of about half a metre diameter at five metres and a light source that is ‘fitted for life’. Each torch is powered by four x AA alkaline primary cells, which will not only produce an optimum output for up to seven and a half hours duration, but will also continue to provide a good light for up to 72 hours.

The latest Wolf Safety Lamp to be launched is the ATEX Certified portable Worklite. Powered by a sealed lead acid battery providing 14 hours duration on full power, the top of the range WL-85 Worklite incorporates a cluster of 12 high power 'fitted for life' LEDs, rated at 25,000 hours, with 30° optics to produce a flood of light.

The Wolf Safety Lamp Company of Sheffield, internationally known for its wide range of portable safety handlamps and worklights, has launched a range of pocket-sized personal issue safety torches - the Mini and Micro series - using high-tech light sources to give impressive performance within a compact size.

We have applied for a renewal of the Lloyds Type Approval and MCA Certificates for the Wolflite H-251A and the Wolflite H-4DCA but there is a large backlog of applications, Lloyds Register have not yet completed their paperwork, and it is likely to be a least 3 - 4 weeks before the new Certificate is issued. Meantime, we have been advised that there is a "period of grace" beyond 3rd July of 3 months until the new Certificate is received, which means that the above products are still covered.

The Wolf Safety Lamp Company Limited of Saxon Road, Sheffield, England, hereby declares that all ATEX Compliant equipment manufactured by the Company for supply to the European Union, is now also compliant with the above mentioned RoHS Directive.

With only nine months remaining until the deadline for implementation of the ATEX WORKPLACE DIRECTIVE 99/92/EC, Wolf has updated its 'ATEX Explained' poster guide, which reviews the main obligations of this DIRECTIVE upon all European Hazardous Area Sites. It suggests that investment in compliant equipment now can save risk assessment costs on NON-ATEX Apparatus still in use on their sites.
