It helps us to know

  • Which certification line applies — ATEX/ESD or FDA/GMP?
  • Zone classification (Zone 21 or 22) for ATEX installations.
  • Hygiene and compliance requirements (GMP class, FDA material documentation) for food and pharmaceutical environments.
  • Which hose diameter and connection type is relevant.
  • Industry and type of material being extracted.
  • Number of units and any delivery timeframe.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between the ATEX/ESD and FDA versions of your accessories?

The ATEX/ESD variant is made from antistatic MM019NN NBR compound with documented volume resistivity (certified by CERISIE laboratory in accordance with ISO 1853:2011). It is used for extraction in explosion-hazardous environments such as Zone 21 and 22, where equipotential bonding is essential.

The FDA variant is made from transparent silicone based on WACKER CHEMIE R 4001 80, which meets the requirements of FDA 21 CFR 177.2600 and BfR Recommendation XV. It is used in food and pharmaceutical environments where material safety and hygiene are the focus.

Are the nozzles and brushes ATEX-certified or FDA-documented?

Nozzles and brushes in NBR compound MM019NN are manufactured with documented antistatic properties — not ATEX-certified as isolated components. ATEX certification applies to the complete equipment (the vacuum cleaner including accessories). It is the equipment manufacturer's responsibility to carry out the overall ATEX assessment and ensure correct equipotential bonding. We supply all available material documentation for use in this assessment.

For food and pharmaceutical environments, the FDA variant is supplied in silicone based on Wacker R 4001 80 with documented compliance with FDA 21 CFR 177.2600 and BfR Recommendation XV. We can provide the manufacturer's material documentation and declarations for your internal approval process.

Does Particulair deliver across the EU?

Yes. We deliver to customers across the EU within the European customs zone. Scandinavia is our primary market, but we can handle orders from other EU countries. Contact us for details on delivery time and shipping costs for your project.

Can I get advice on choosing the right size and type?

Yes, that is precisely our strength. Tell us about your installation — hose diameter, industry, the material being extracted and any certification requirements — and we will help specify the right accessories. You do not need to know the product codes in advance.

What is the minimum order quantity?

The minimum order is typically 10 pieces per size for special variants. Standard products can often be supplied in smaller quantities. Contact us for information on stock status and minimum requirements for the specific variant.

Can you supply product documentation and material certificates?

Yes. We supply all available material documentation, including the CERISIE laboratory report for the electrical properties of the NBR compound (ISO 1853:2011) and the manufacturer's documentation for FDA compound compliance. Contact us to request documentation for your internal approval process.
