7.11 Installation of detonation prevention
device
The following is to be discussed with an expert in advance:
▪ Whether ignitable discharges can occur (from experience)
▪ The pipe system configuration
▪ The aspiration aperture configuration
▪ The earthing concept.
The pipes used in the Ex area are installed on the detonation protector via a
transition screw connection. The steel aspiration pipes used between the
TITANUS PRO·SENS® and the detonation protectors are mounted to the
detonation protectors via screw-in connections. The connections must be
established by means of a ¾“ or 1“ thread.
If from experience you expect ignitable discharges, execute the pipe system
laid in the Ex area to be electrically conductive (metal pipe or electrically
conductive plastic pipe). The pipe system is earthed via grounding clamps
on the pipe and a connected equipotential bonding rail.
The aspiration pipe can be plastic in Ex areas if no ignitable discharges can
occur from experience.
The aspiration apertures can either have aspiration reducing film sheets with
sleeves or aspiration reducer clips or be drilled directly into the pipe system.
In case of drilled aspiration apertures, whistling aspiration noises may occur.
Danger of pipe deflagration or detonation
The TITANUS PRO·SENS® must not be mounted in areas with a
potentially explosive atmosphere. Non-observance could lead to an ignition
of the explosive atmosphere due to static discharge.
