Code:

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 EN 60079-14 and any local codes of practice 
that are in force. 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.
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.

TERMINALS

MIU/e may be fitted with a combination of:
WDU2.5 terminals certified to KEMA 98ATEX1683U & IECEx ULD05.0008U
SAK2.5 terminals certified to KEMA 98ATEX1798U & IECEx KEM06.0014U
WPE2.5 Earth terminals certified to KEMA 98ATEX1683U & IECEx ULD05.0008U

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.
