from its own. It is considered as part of the pump and the ATEX code for the pump is applicable,
meaning it can operate under the same ATEX environment as the pump it is attached to. In general
this means the damper is suitable for Group II, category 2 and temperature class T4.
When operating under ATEX pay extra attention to the following:

Pulsation Damper to be installed, operated and maintained according this manual (see chapter
8 SPECIFICATIONS ).

Make sure the damper is connected to the earth. In general this is the case when the damper is
connected to the pump and the piping system. By construction all parts are electrically connected.
This can be checked by measuring the electrical resistance to the earth. The electri cal resistance
to any ground connection should be less than 1 MOhm.
WARNING
In case it is not possible to create an earth/ground connection with less than 1 MOhm,
one should make an additional PE (protective earth) connection to the pulsation
damper. (see chapter
5 INSTALLATION AND COMMISSIONING ).
