1. Application
The SHL 300-Ex is a robust Handlamp with LED technology designed for industrial and
fire-fighting applications in potentially explosive areas of Zones 0 and or 20 and 2 in
accordance with Directive 999/92/EC (ATEX 37).
2. Safety instructions
These operating instructions contain information and safety regulations that must be
followed to ensure safe and reliable operation of the unit under the described conditions.
Non-observance of these information and instructions may have dangerous conse-
quences or may contravene applicable regulations.
Please carefully read through these operating instructions before using this unit.
In cases of doubt (for example, due to translation or printing errors), the German
version of these operating instructions shall prevail.
3. Errors and impermissible loading
If there is any risk that the safety of the unit has been compromised, the unit must be
taken out of operation and immediately removed from the Ex area.
Action must be taken to prevent the torch from being accidentally put into operation
again. We recommend sending the unit to the manufacturer for inspection.
The safety of the unit may be at risk if, for example:
- Damage is visible on the housing
- The unit has been subjected to excessive loads for which it is not designed
- The unit has been improperly stored
- The unit has been damaged in transit
- Inscriptions or letterings on the unit are illegible or labels are damaged
- Malfunctions occur
We recommend returning the unit to ecom instruments GmbH for service and repair, as
original ecom spare parts must be used. The use of third party spare parts from non
approved suppliers will invalidate any warranty.
