INSTALLATION AND USER MANUAL
1. SPECIFIC CONDITIONS OF USE
The flameproof joints are not intended to be repaired.
DO NOT OPEN OR REPAIR!
The TEF 9980 is sealed for life, and shall not be opened for repair or in-
spections. Should a fault occur, contact the manufacturer. Do not try to
open the equipment for repair or modifications. This could impair the type
of protection and the safety of the product. Regular visual inspections for
corrosion and water ingress are recommended.
The TEF 9980 has one threaded cable entry, M25x1.5 (6H)
which is used for the permanent connection of the cable. This cable is
installed in the factory, and shall not be replaced. Temperature at en-
try point may reach 85°C with an ambient temperature of +55°C. The
TEF 9980 is delivered with a flying lead connection cable. If installed
in a hazardous area (Zone 1 or 2) the free end of the cable shall be
protected by a type of protection listed in clause 1 of IEC/EN 60079-0
suitable for the mentioned Zone and required EPL. The screen of the
cable is also the grounding of the lamp and shall be connected to
earth in the junction box. Do not apply excessive pulling or twisting
force to the cable. This may impair the type of protection Ex d, and the
ingress protection. This may possibly lead to water ingress or reduce
the equipment’s ability to not transmit an internal explosion.
2. AREA OF USE
The TEF9980 signal light and its control system is made for direct
connection to the Fire and Gas alarm system with fully automated
functionality. A “manual ON” and “DIM” options are available from the
control system. The system includes a “self-test” in order to check for
faults without having to test the lights manually.
The TEF9980 is designed to comply with requirements for status light
as described in CAA UK CAP437, NORMAM-27/DPC and 2009 MODU
Code.
