CONTINUOUS GAS ANALYZERS | OI/AO2000-EN REV. B
Version with type of protection II 3G for measurement of
flammable gases ('Safety Concept') and non-flammable
gases
Intended application
Intended application
The gas analyzers are designed for continuous measurement of the concen-
tration of individual components in
•
non-flammable gases and vapors,
•
flammable gases and vapors of Group IIC and Temperature Class T4,
which can seldom and then only briefly form a potentially explosive at-
mosphere (zone 2).
Any other use is not as specified.
The specified use also includes taking note of this operating instruction.
Important safety note
According to EU Directive 2014/34/EU and the general requirements for
equipment installed in explosive atmospheres stated in IEC 60079-0, the
scope of the certification of our equipment is limited to atmospheric condi-
tions, unless specified otherwise in our certificates.
Atmospheric conditions
are defined as follows:
•
Temperature range
−
20 to +60 °C
•
Pressure range p
abs
= 80 to 110 kPa (0.8 to 1.1 bar)
•
Ambient air with normal oxygen content, typically 21 % v/v
If the
atmospheric conditions are not met
, the operator is obliged to ensure
the safe operation of our equipment outside the atmospheric conditions by
means of further measures (for example, assessment of the gas mixture)
and / or supplementary protection devices.
