Special Conditions for Safe Use:
The unterminated power cable (flying leads) must be terminated by the end user in the field
according to installation standards, IEC/EN/ABNT NBR IEC 60079-14, to a suitable safe power
location, or under one apparatus or enclosure in one of the protection concepts for use
in hazardous locations. Flying leads consist of a brown “Hot” wire, blue “Neutral” wire and
yellow/green “Ground” wire.
T6 Temperature Classification:
85°C T6 - According to IEC 60079-0 / EN 60079-0 / ABNT NBR IEC 60079-0.
To ensure that there is no risk of ignition due to hot surfaces, the equipment is classified with
regard to the maximum surface temperature of any part of the equipment while in operation
based on the ambient temperature of 40°C. Equipment must be selected with a suitable
temperature classification for the gases and vapors present where the equipment is to be
installed. Ensure that the maximum surface temperature of any parts of the equipment are
below the ignition temperature of the explosive atmosphere concerned.
This equipment is intended for use in ambient temperatures ranging between -20°C and
+40°C.
The letter “X” at the end of the ATEX, IECEx, and INMETRO certificate numbers
indicate a special condition for safe use. This special condition of safe use refers
to the fact that the Hazardous Location Fans referenced herein are supplied
without an AC power plug termination for the power cable.
