Hello
I work on a North sea Oil Platform with FM Motorolla Gp340 radios, however I am required to use ATEX compliant Sets as I am in a slightly hazardous area. Does the FM standard of FM3610 meet the ATEX standard of 60079-11? My belief is that the radios do not meet the ATEX standard but comes close. Close enough that we can continue their use while we change them out for the blue ones?
Does anyone have any experience in the standards side of the atex compliance in the oil industry for these sets that couls help me here?
