Equipment for the Oil and Gas Industry – ATEX-Compliant Solutions
Malux offers a comprehensive range of ATEX-certified equipment specifically adapted for the demanding and regulated environment of the oil and gas industry. We have extensive experience in delivering products that meet the requirements of explosive atmospheres, where safety, operational reliability, and customization are critical.
What is the Oil and Gas Industry?
The oil and gas industry encompasses exploration, extraction, refining, transportation, and distribution of petroleum and natural gas. It is a global industry operating both onshore and offshore, often in technically demanding and high-risk environments where stringent requirements are placed on safety, equipment, and operations.


Explosion-Proof Heaters
We offer explosion-proof immersion heaters, circulation heaters, and gas preheaters specifically designed for heating liquids, gases, and air under pressure. Our heaters are often process-specific and customized to meet customer requirements for optimal performance and safety.
Ex-Approved Lighting Adapted for the Oil and Gas Industry
When selecting fixtures for oil and gas environments, it is important to consider which ATEX zone the fixture will be installed in, which explosion groups apply, and the ambient temperature conditions. This information is found in the classification plan for the specific area – and we are happy to assist in interpreting it.
We offer lighting solutions adapted for environments where aggressive vapors are present and where material durability is critical for long-term safety. Our fixtures are designed to withstand these stresses and operate safely over time.

Lighting Design for Safety and Efficiency
With the help of our in-house lighting designers, we can optimize lighting based on each facility’s unique conditions:
Effective communication and smooth project flow: Close dialogue between Malux lighting designers and customers provides integrated, efficient solutions.
Fast and flexible adaptation: Our lighting designers can quickly adjust solutions to changing needs and operating conditions.
Safe and comfortable work environment: By delivering the right amount of light in the right place, in an energy-efficient manner, both work environment and safety are improved.
Improved productivity: Even and sufficient lighting reduces shadows and poor visibility, creating safer and more efficient working conditions.


Safety Switches for Ex Environments
To prevent unintentional or unauthorized starting of electric motors, we offer a wide range of ATEX-approved safety switches. Our solutions cover everything from smaller requirements to switches handling up to 630 A.

Communication Systems for Safe Operations
Effective and safe communication is critical in the oil and gas industry. Malux delivers explosion-proof communication solutions for both voice and data, adapted to function in classified areas.

Customized Junction and Control Boxes
Through our own workshop in Örnsköldsvik, we can quickly and flexibly produce customized junction and control boxes in both GRP (glass fiber reinforced polyester) and stainless steel – always with a focus on safety, functionality, and documentation in accordance with the ATEX directive.
