ATEX INFORMATION 

The  Essential  Health  and  Safety  Requirements  (Annex  II)  of  the  EU 

Directive  2014/34/EU  [the  ATEX  Directive  -  safety  of  apparatus] 

requires  that  the  installation  manual  of  all  equipment  used  in 

hazardous  areas  shall  contain  certain  information.  This  annex  is 

included  to  ensure  that  this  requirement  is  met.  It  complements  the 

information  presented  in    this  document  and  does  not  conflict  with 

that  information.  It  is  only  relevant  to  those    locations    where    the 

ATEX Directives are applicable. 

6.1

 

General 

a)

 

In  common  with  all  other  electrical  apparatus  installed  in 

hazardous  areas,  this  apparatus  must  only  be  installed, 

operated  and  maintained  by  competent  personnel.  Such 

personnel  shall  have  undergone  training,  which  included 

instruction  on  the  various  types  of  protection  and  installation 

practices, the relevant rules and regulations, and on the general 

principles  of  area classification. Appropriate refresher training 

shall be given on a regular basis. [See clause 4.2 of EN 60079- 

17]. 

b)

 

The  apparatus  has  been  designed  and  manufactured  in 

accordance  with  EN  60079-0  and  EN60079-11.  The 

MTL831B transmitter is certified ‘ia’ and is normally mounted in 

a  Zone  1  hazardous  area.  The  MTL3052  meets  the 

requirements of Associated  Apparatus for  category  ‘ia’  and  is 

always mounted in the safe area. 

c)

 

This apparatus has been designed and  manufactured so as to 

provide  protection  against  all  the  relevant  additional  hazards 

referred to in Annex II of the directive, such as those in clause 

1.2.7. 

 

6.2

 

Installation 

a)

 

The installation should comply with the appropriate European, 

national and local regulations, which may include reference to 

the IEC code of practice IEC 60079-14. In addition particular 

industries or end users may have specific requirements relating 

to the  safety of their installations and these requirements should 

also  be  met.  For  the  majority  of  installations  the  Directive 

1999/92/EC [the ATEX Directive - safety of installations] is also 

applicable. 

b)

 

This apparatus must not be subjected to mechanical and thermal 

stresses  in  excess  of  those  permitted  in  the  certification 

documentation,  this  manual  and  the  product  specification.  If 

necessary  the  product  must  be  protected  by  an  enclosure  to 

prevent mechanical damage. 

c)

 

The apparatus must not be installed in a position where it may 

be  attacked  by  aggressive  substances  and  must  be  protected 

from excessive dust, moisture and other  contaminants. 

 

6.2.1

      

MTL831B 

This is IS apparatus and is normally mounted in a hazardous area. It 

meets the requirement of Category 1 apparatus and may be installed 

in  a  Zone  0  or  a  Zone  1  location,  provided  that  the  relevant 

installation requirements are met. 

 

6.2.2

      

MTL3052 

This is associated apparatus and is always mounted in a safe area. 

 

6.3

 

Inspection and maintenance 

a)

 

Inspection  and  maintenance  should  be  carried  out  in 

accordance  with  European,  national  and  local  regulations 

which may refer to the IEC standard IEC 60079-17. In addition 

specific industries or end users may have specific requirements 

which should also be met. 

b)

 

Access  to  the  internal  circuitry  must  not  be  made  during 

operation. 

c)

 

If the outer enclosure of the apparatus needs to be cleaned, this 

should be done with a cloth lightly moistened by a dilute mixture 

of detergent in water. 

 

6.4

 

Repair 

1.

 

This product cannot be repaired by the user and  must  be 

replaced  with  an  equivalent  certified  product.  Repairs 

should  only  be  carried  out  by  the  manufacturer  or  his 

authorised agent. 

 

6.5

 

Marking 

a)

 

The  products  are  labelled  in  a  manner  reproduced  below.  In 

addition,  the  serial  number  and/or  date  of  manufacture  are 

marked on the individual apparatus. 
 

This manual applies to products manufactured and date marked during 

or after the year 2004. 

6.6

 

  

Specific Conditions of Use 

a)

 

The equipment is housed within a plastic enclosure. Suitable 

precautions must be made to avoid rubbing or cleaning with 

solvents,
