Section 3: Application Suitability
MiniPurge
®
systems are certified for use in hazardous locations, where the hazardous location is non-mining
(above ground) and the hazard is caused by flammable gasses, vapours or dust. Depending on the model the
systems may be used in IECEx and ATEX Zone 1(21) and Zone 2(22) - Categories 2 and 3 respectively, and
Class I/II/III Division 1 and Division 2.
MiniPurge
®
systems may be used for hazards of any gas group. Apparatus associated with the MiniPurge
®
system, such as intrinsically safe signalling circuits and flameproof enclosures containing switching devices may
be limited in their gas group. The certification documentation supplied with any such devices must be checked
to ensure their suitability.
This system is primarily designed for use with compressed air. Where other inert compressed gasses are used
(Nitrogen, for example) the user must take suitable precautions so that the build up of the inert gas does not
present a hazard to health. Consult the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) data sheet for the
gas used. Where a risk of asphyxiation exists, a warning label must be fitted to the pressurized enclosure.
The following materials are used in the construction of MiniPurge
®
systems. If substances that will adversely
affect any of these materials are present in the surrounding environment, please consult Expo Technologies for
further guidance.
