ATEX explosion protection
The index EI3 is certified as an ATEX subassembly
and is marked as follows:
II 2 G Ex ib IIA T4 Gb
= Specific explosion protection mark
II = Equipment group for “non-mining”
2G = Equipment category 2 (zone 1) for gas
EX = Symbol for electrical equipment
built according to European standards
ib = Type of ignition protection:
i = intrinsically safe
b = suitable for use in zone 1
IIA = Explosion group for gases
T4 = Temperature class: maximum allowable
surface temperature: 135°C
Gb = Equipment protection level (zone 1)
The batteries and communications modules are
certified as parts of the electronic index. Use only
spare parts from Elster.
The electrical interfaces feature the following
parameters:
Pulse output:
