Explanation:
II
Use of the device above ground
2
Device category 2 per ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU
Suitability for areas in which explosive atmospheres may occur occasionally.
Inner chamber (drying chamber), tubing / line to the vacuum pump, areas inside the vacuum
pump. See images of the areas in Chap. 3.5.
3
Device category 3 per ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU
Suitability for areas in which explosive atmospheres may occur, on a rare and temporary basis:
The entire device, with the exception of the device plug, is designed in Device category 3 in
relation to the environment

sensor, Pt 100 heating sensor
Surrounding of the chamber, loading area, area of installation of the vacuum pump, pump mod-
ule. See images of the areas in Chap. 3.5.
-
No category per ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU
