Installation Requirements
Installation of this equipment shall only be carried
out by suitably trained personnel in accordance
with the applicable code of practice e.g.
IEC 60079-14/EN 60079-14
Repair of this equipment shall only be carried out
by the manufacturer or in accordance with the
applicable code of practice e.g. IEC 60079-19/EN
60079-19.
The certification of this equipment relies on the
following materials used in its construction:
Enclosure:
GRP - Glass Reinforced Polyester
Through enclosure mechanism: Plastic Nylon Zytel
Injection Moulded
Sealing of enclosure and mechanism: O-ring
Acrylonitrile-Butadiene Rubber
Potting Compound of resistors where used: Epoxy
Resin
If the equipment is likely to come into contact with
aggressive substances, then it is the responsibility
of the user to take suitable precautions that prevent
it from being adversely affected, thus ensuring that
the type of protection is not compromised.
“Aggressive substances” - e.g. acidic liquids, gases
or solvents that may affect polymeric materials.
“Suitable precautions” - e.g. regular checks as part
of routine inspections or establishing from the
material’s data sheet that it is resistant to specific
chemicals.
Leads connected to the terminals shall be insulated
for the appropriate voltage and this insulation shall
extend to within 1mm of the metal of the terminal
throat. They shall only be installed and wired with
cable in an ambient temperature of -10°C to +80°C
All terminal screws, used or unused, shall be
tightened down to between 0.5 Nm and 0.7 Nm
Refer to certificates SIRA 09ATEX3286X and
IECEx SIR 09.0121X for special conditions of safe
use.
Under extreme conditions the unit may generate an
ignition-capable level of electrostatic charges. The
unit must not be installed in a location where it may
be subjected to external conditions (such as high-
pressure steam) which may cause a build-up of
electrostatic charges on non-conducting surfaces.
Cleaning of the unit must only be carried out with a
damp cloth.
5)
Call Point Location and Mounting
The location of the call point should enable ease of
access for operation and testing. The unit should
be mounted using the 4 off fixing holes which will
accept up to M4 sized fixings.
View of base unit showing fixing centres (in mm).
To gain access to the mounting holes in the base
the front cover must be removed.
This is achieved by removing the 4 off M4 cap
head bolts holding on the cover.
