Black antistatic PREDATOR curved nozzle in MM019NN NBR compound for ATEX Zone 21 and Zone 22 – Ø50 mm

Used together with

PREDATOR is an antistatic curved nozzle in MM019NN NBR compound for precise spot extraction in ATEX-classified Zone 21 and Zone 22. The distinctive curved shape with narrow tip provides access to crevices, slots and hard-to-reach areas where conventional straight nozzles cannot reach. Certified antistatic properties ensure documented equipotential bonding during extraction of combustible materials such as cereals, starches, sugars, light metals, coal and wood dust.

Applications

PREDATOR is designed for spot extraction in ATEX-classified environments, particularly where access to small crevices and hard-to-reach areas is required. Typical industries and materials:

  • Food production — cereals, starches, sugars, flour products in crevices and machine parts
  • Woodworking — sawdust and wood dust in hard-to-reach areas
  • Metal processing — aluminium and magnesium dust in machinery and structures
  • Chemical industry — explosive powder and granulate in process equipment
  • Coal processing — coal and coke dust in hard-to-access structures
Important notice: This nozzle is not ATEX-certified as a product. It is manufactured in MM019NN antistatic NBR compound with documented volume resistivity of 1.1 Ω·m, certified by CERISIE laboratory in accordance with ISO 1853:2011. The ATEX Directive certifies the complete installation — the nozzle’s role is to provide documented antistatic properties that the system manufacturer incorporates into the overall ATEX certification. It is the installer’s and user’s responsibility to verify suitability for the specific ATEX-classified environment and dust class.

Frequently asked questions

PREDATOR has a distinctive curved shape that provides access to crevices, slots and hard-to-reach areas that a straight conical nozzle cannot reach. Both are manufactured in MM019NN antistatic NBR compound with certified volume resistivity of 1.1 Ω·m (CERISIE, ISO 1853:2011).
PREDATOR is not ATEX-certified as a standalone product. It is manufactured in a compound with documented antistatic properties, certified by CERISIE laboratory in accordance with ISO 1853:2011. The ATEX Directive certifies the complete installation — the nozzle’s documented properties form part of the overall assessment. It is the installer’s and user’s responsibility to verify suitability for the specific ATEX-classified environment and zone.
PREDATOR is available in Ø38, Ø40 and Ø50 mm. The diameter must match the pipe system on your vacuum unit. Contact us if you are unsure about the correct dimension.
The documented electrical resistance of 5–50 kΩ and volume resistivity of 1.1 Ω·m make the nozzle suitable for use in environments requiring equipotential bonding, including Zone 21 and Zone 22. It is always the user’s responsibility to verify suitability for the specific zone and installation.
The curved shape provides access to areas that are difficult to reach with a straight nozzle — under machine components, in structural crevices and along rail profiles. This is particularly valuable in ATEX environments, where effective removal of combustible dust is critical for safety.
PREDATOR is not available in a documented silicone or FDA NBR version with its own product codes. For food and pharma environments requiring FDA-compatible materials, other nozzles in the range are recommended. Contact us for advice on the right choice for your specific environment.
