The IECEx Certification Scheme
IECEx is a global certification scheme for
explosion protected products which aims to
harmonise international certification standards.
For additional information about the IECEx
certification scheme and to view the BEKA
associate certificates, please visit www.iecex.com

optional accessories have been issued with an
IECEx
Certificate

number
IECEx ITS 11.0014X which specifies the following
certification codes:
Ex ia IIC T5 Ga
Ex ia IIIC T80°C Da IP66
Ta = -40°C to 70°C
The specified IECEx gas and dust intrinsic safety
parameters are identical to the ATEX safety
parameters described in the main section and
Appendix 1 of this manual.
The IECEx certificate may be downloaded from
www.beka.co.uk, www.iecex.com or requested
from the BEKA sales office.
A2.2
Installation
The IECEx and ATEX certificates specify identical
safety parameters and installation requirements for
both approvals as defined by IEC 60079-14. The
ATEX installation requirements specified in the
main section and Appendix 1 of this manual may
therefore be used for IECEx installations, but the
local code of practice should also be consulted.
