1.4.2 Individual testing reports
Each CentaurSlam®
–unit has its own individual serial number and is provided with an
original, individual testing report when leaving the factory. The year of manufacture is
specified on the type label of the equipment. Following tests have been done for Slam®
Hornet
–units according to standards relating to portable luminaries for explosion hazardous
area. The Declaration of Conformity is specifying the relevant standards. The testing report
which is included in the delivery specifies the results of the factory tests for that particular unit.
The testing report typically specifies the following tests:
PE
–resistance test
The purpose of this test is to measure persistence of earth conductor.
Vital test for electrical safety as well as explosion safety because of e.g static electricity control.
The test current is 10 A (current) and the overall resistance should not exceed 0,5 ohm.
High voltage test (electrical strength)
The purpose of this test is to measure leakage current trough insulation. Vital test for revealing broken
components or similar failures which can not be identified visually.
Testing voltage applied is 2130VDC. Maximum leakage current is 5mA.
Test of expected use of equipment
The luminary is subjected to shaking and vibration
– to see that all the internal wires are properly attached and
components are not loose.
Operational test of luminaire and accessories
The unit is plugged-in and checked that it is working properly after all accomplished tests above.
Visual inspection
A final check to see everything is fine (screws attached properly, wires connected and required markings
attached).

Prior to use
2.1 Selection of right equipment
You need to be sure that the equipment you intend to take into explosion hazardous area matches up with the
zone classification and other safety requirements related. At least the following points should be notified prior to
use:
2.1.1 Intended purpose of equipment
Please keep in mind what the actual application of equipment is. For example in case the equipment is to be
moved when connected to the supply it needs to be designed for that purpose. If the certification is mentioning
“portable” it means that the equipment is suitable and tested for portable use. If the certification does not mention
portable it means that the equipment shall not be moved when it is in operation (reliable fixing of equipment).
