Fig 16 shows a typical application in which a
BA334NG Rate Totaliser is mounted in Zone 2 is
displaying the output from a Flameproof Ex d 2-wire
flowmeter located in Zone 1. Alarm 1 is switching
an Ex e sounder in Zone 1 and alarm 2 is switching
a sounder located in the safe area.

To comply with the requirements of EN 60079-14
Electrical installations design, selection and
erection
, each of the wires entering the hazardous
area should be individually fused and contain a
means of isolation. These two requirements are
frequently satisfied by using fuse holders with easily
removable fuses and removing the fuses to achieve
isolation. This is a satisfactory method at the low
voltages and currents common in instrumentation
systems. Clear identification of, and easy access to
the means of isolation is essential for their effective
use. It is also necessary to ensure that the
maintenance procedure makes sure that
unauthorised re-closure of the switches does not
occur. It is not considered necessary to have a
means of isolation or electrical protection for the
screen. Fig 2 illustrates an example of this type of
fused terminal block.
For some applications Ex nA instrumentation
energised by a current limited power supply or
instrument that can be switched off, is often
considered adequate and to comply with the
requirements of the standard.
10.3.3 Configuration and adjustment
When a BA334NG Rate Totaliser is fitted with
alarms the configuration menu is extended as
shown in Fig 17. Each alarm may be configured
to operate on the rate or total display.
For simplicity Fig 17 only shows the configurable
functions on the rate option of alarm
AL1
, the total
option is identical except that total alarms do not
have hysteresis. Alarm
AL2
is identical to alarm
AL1
.
The following table summarises each of the alarm
configuration functions and includes a cross
reference to more detailed information. Again only
alarm
AL1
functions are listed.
