Sioux Corporation continues to improve their line of industry leading all-electric pressure washers and steam cleaners by obtaining additional certifications. Sioux’s explosion-proof pressure washers and steam cleaners are now approved for Class I, Division 1, Group C and D, and Class II, Division 1, Group F and G hazardous environments.

Sioux Corporation has also added third party certification on the full line of EN Series all-electric explosion-proof hot water pressure washers and steam cleaners as well as explosion-proof cold water washers for use in Class I Division 1, Group C and D, and Class II, Division 1, Group F and G hazardous environments.  These units are certified to UL 1203, CSA C22.2 #25, and CSA C22.2 #30 safety standards. 

Class I, Division 1 environments are areas where ignitable concentrations of flammable gases, vapors, or liquids can exist under normal operating conditions.  Class II, Division 1 environments are areas where ignitable concentrations of combustible or conductive dust can exist under normal operating conditions.  A unit built to Division 1 standards will also cover areas in Division 2 where ignitable concentrations of combustible or conductive gas or dust are not likely to exist but are possible under normal operating conditions. 

Mike Wiebers, Sioux’s All-Electric Product Manager states, “These improvements will provide our customers new solutions for their cleaning equipment needs. By purchasing only third party certified equipment, they can be assured of their employees’ safety when operating a Sioux piece of equipment.”
