Purge Gas Supply Notes

An alarm shall be provided to indicate failure of the protective gas supply to maintain the required pressure . Piping for 
the protective gas shall be protected against mechanical damage .
Where the compressor intake line passes through a classified location, it shall be constructed of noncombustible 
material, designed to prevent leakage of flammable gases, vapors, or dusts into the protective gas, and protected 
against mechanical damage and corrosion .
The electrical power for the protective gas supply (blower, compressor, etc .) shall be supplied either from a separate 
power source or from the protected enclosure power supply prior to any service disconnects of the protected 
enclosure . Any protected enclosure that can be isolated from the protective gas supply shall be equipped with an 
alarm . Where an alarm is used to indicate the loss of pressure in the cabinet:

•  The alarm shall be located at a constantly attended location .
•  The alarm actuator shall take its signal from the protected enclosure and shall not be installed between the 

enclosure and the protective gas supply .

•  The alarm actuator shall be mechanical, pneumatic, or electrical .
•  Electrical alarms and electrical alarm actuators shall be approved for the location in which they are installed .
•  No valves shall be permitted between the alarm actuator and the enclosure .

Intrinsically Safe (IS) Installation

1 .  Electrical equipment connected to associated apparatus should not use or generate more than 250 volts .
2 .  Installation shall be in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and the National Electrical Code (NFPA 70) .
3 .  For guidance on Installation see ANSI/ISA RP12 .6 (Installation of IS Instrument System in Class I 

Hazardous Locations) .

4 .  Voc or Vt of associated apparatus is less than Vmax 

Isc or IT of associated apparatus is less than Imax 
Ci plus capacitance of interconnecting cabling is less than Ca of the associated apparatus 
Li plus inductance of interconnecting cabling is less than La fo the associated apparatus

5 .  "Simple Apparatus" is a device that will not generate or store more than 1 .2V, 0,1A, 25mW or 20uJ
