APPLICATION SUITABILITY

The MiniPurge Interface Units – MIU/e are certified for use in Hazardous Areas where the Hazardous Area is non-mining (i.e. 
above ground) and the hazard is caused by flammable gasses or vapours.
The systems may be used in ATEX/IECEx Gas Zones 1 & 2, Gas Groups IIA, IIB & IIC and in Dust Zones 21 & 22, Dust Groups 
IIIA, IIIB & IIIC.

The following materials are used in the construction of MIU/e: Stainless Steel, Steel, Brass, Copper, Polyamide, Silicone. If 
substances that will adversely affect any of these materials are present in the surrounding environment, please consult Expo 
Technologies for further guidance. This equipment is designed for use under normal industrial conditions of ambient 
temperature, humidity and vibration. Please consult Expo Technologies before installing this equipment in conditions that may
cause stresses beyond normal industrial conditions.

WARNING - Only install, commission, inspect, maintain or fault find when safe to do so.

INSTALLATION

The MIU/e shall be installed in accordance with relevant standards, such as IEC 60079-14 and any local codes of practice that 
are in force. 
The MIU/e shall be connected to the Purge and Pressurization system in accordance with the instructions given in the handbook 
supplied with the pressurization system.
The external earth connection of the MIU/e shall be connected to earth using minimum 4mm

2

conductor.

SELECTION OF CABLE, CABLE GLANDS AND CONDUCTORS IN CONDUIT

Cable glands or other cable entry devices shall be appropriately certified and suitable for the cable and the conditions of use 
and be installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
When the MIU/e application requires the hazardous area marking code:
Ex eb IIC T5 Gb, Tamb -20°C to +55°C there is no further guidance for the selection of cable and cable glands or conductors in 
conduit.
When the MIU/e application requires the hazardous area marking code:
Ex eb IIC T4 Gb, Tamb -20°C to +60°C the user shall select cable and cable glands or conductors in conduit that have a higher 
temperature rating than 83.2°C.

TERMINALS

MIU/e may be fitted with a combination of:
WDU2.5 terminals certified to DEMKO 14 ATEX 1338U & IECEx ULD 14.0005U.
SAK2.5 terminals certified to KEMA 97 ATEX 1798U & IECEx KEM06.0014U.
WPE2.5 Earth terminals certified to DEMKO 14 ATEX 1338U & IECEx ULD 14.0005U.

For all type of terminals:    Tightening torque range: 0.4 to 0.8 Nm (WDU & WPE) & 0.4 to 0.6 Nm (SAK).

             Conductor cross section maximum 2.5 mm

2

, minimum 1.5 mm

2

.

             Type of connection is screwed - Solid copper conductors to be used.
             Stripping length shall be 10 mm.

Only one conductor is allowed at each side of a terminal. Multiple conductors shall be crimped
together before screwed into the terminal.

Maximum number of terminals:

For Model MIU/e1 – Up to 18 current carrying terminals.

        For Model MIU/e2 – Up to 33 current carrying terminals.
     

For Model MIU/e1/MO – Up to 13 current carrying terminals.

COMMISSIONING

The installation of the cable glands, electrical and earth connections shall be inspected for correct installation before the unit is 
put into service. The lid shall be correctly fitted.

MAINTENANCE

The condition of enclosure and associated cable glands shall be inspected for damage every six months. The terminals shall be 
inspected for tightness and gaskets inspected for damage.

FAULT FINDING

When wiring or signal fault occurs, check each terminated wire, terminals for tightness and gaskets for damage.
External faults such as broken switches within the Control Unit may also require investigation.
