IECEx Certification
A3.0 The IECEx Certification Scheme
IECEx is a global certification scheme for
explosion protected products which aims to
harmonise international certification standards.
For additional information about the IECEx
certification scheme and to view the BEKA
associate certificates, please visit www.iecex.com
A3.1 IECEx Certificate of Conformity
The BA304D loop powered indicator has been
issued with an IECEx Certificate of Conformity
number IECEx ITS 05.0004 which specifies the
following certification codes and marking:
For gas
Ex ia IIC T5
Ta = -40°C to 60°C
For gas & dust
Ex ia IIC T5
DIP A21 TA 80°C IP66
Ta = -20°C to 60°C
The specified intrinsic safety parameters are
identical to the ATEX parameters.
The IECEx certificate may be downloaded from
www.beka.co.uk, www.iecex.com or requested
from the BEKA sales office.
A3.2 Versions of the BA304D
All versions of the BA304D Fieldbus Display have
IECEx certification. This includes:
ATEX version for use in gas atmospheres.
IECEx code
Ex ia IIC T5
Ta = -40°C to 60°C
ATEX version for use in gas and dust
atmospheres.
IECEx code
Ex ia IIC T5
DIP A21 TA 80°C IP66
Ta = -20°C to 60°C
Factory Mutual Approved version
IECEx code
Ex ia IIC T5
Ta = -40°C to 60°C
A3.3 Installation
As the IECEx and ATEX certifications specify
identical safety parameters and installation
requirements for both are defined by IEC 60079-
14, the ATEX installation requirements specified in
this manual may also be used for IECEx
installations in gas atmospheres. The local code
of practice should also be consulted.
