EAC certification for export to the EAEU
EAC Certification for Explosion-Proof Gas Detectors
For Explosion-Proof Gas Detectors, explosion-protection concept, equipment group/category, zone, gas or dust environment, temperature class and Ex marking are central classification inputs. Ordinary electrical classification is not enough for an Ex conclusion. We cross-check the product description with the applicable EAEU technical regulations and TN VED 9027, using the customs code as supporting evidence rather than as the only legal basis.
Quick compliance overview
- Product category
- Explosion-Proof Equipment
- HS / TN VED
- 9027
- Assessment status
- TR CU 012/2011 certification; exact scheme assessed per product
What is usually required for this product?
The technical file should show the explosion-protection type, certified components, enclosure concept, ignition-risk controls and complete Ex marking. When this explosion-proof product is designed for use in explosive atmospheres, TR CU 012/2011 applies. The final certificate scope, Ex marking, model range and testing plan still require review of the specific design and intended hazardous area.
Certificate or declaration?
The review starts with Ex classification and marking, then checks the protection concept and evidence chain before the conformity route is finalized. The verified primary route is certification under TR CU 012/2011; the exact scheme and evidence plan depend on the Ex design and model range.
Applicable technical regulations
TR CU 012/2011 is the verified core regulation for equipment intended for explosive atmospheres. Other EAEU regulations may also apply to integrated electrical, machinery, EMC or pressure functions.
Verified conformity information
The verified primary route is EAC certification under TR CU 012/2011. Final scope is confirmed from the Ex marking, protection concept, intended zone and model range.
Cost and timeframe
Final cost and duration depend on the applicable regulation, conformity scheme, testing scope, technical documentation, sample requirements and project configuration.
- •Explosion-protection concept and Ex marking
- •Gas/dust group and temperature class
- •Number of Ex variants and certified components
- •Need for sample testing and factory assessment
Documents usually requested
For an initial assessment, manufacturers should normally be ready to provide:
- Ex marking schedule and nameplate artwork
- Explosion-protection drawings and component certificates
- Ignition hazard / risk assessment
- Electrical schematics and enclosure details
- Product datasheet and complete model list
- Manufacturer and production-site details
- Proposed HS / TN VED classification (9027)

Frequently asked questions
Why is an ordinary electrical certificate not enough for Ex equipment?
Explosion-proof equipment has additional ignition-risk and marking requirements; the Ex protection concept must be assessed separately.
What Ex data is needed first?
Provide the intended zone, gas/dust group, temperature class, protection type, full Ex marking and key certified components.
Which EAC regulation applies to Explosion-Proof Gas Detectors?
TR CU 012/2011 applies when the product is designed for use in explosive atmospheres; conformity is normally confirmed by an EAC Certificate. The exact scheme and scope require review of the Ex design and marking.
Does the HS / TN VED code alone determine the route?
No. Customs classification is an important input, but the technical product description and the wording of the regulatory lists must be checked together.
