Instructions specific to hazardous area installations
(Reference European ATEX Directive 94/9/EC, Annex II, 1/0/6)
The following instructions apply to equipment covered by certificate number SIRA
03ATEX2142X:
1. For use and assembly, refer to the main instructions.
2. The equipment is certified for use as Category 1G equipment.
3. The equipment may be used with flammable gases and vapors with apparatus
group IIC and temperature class T4.
4. The equipment is certified for use in an ambient temperature range of –40
°
C to
80
°
C.
5. The equipment has not been assessed as a safety related device (as referred to by
Directive 94/9/EC Annex II, clause 1.5).
6. Installation and inspection of this equipment shall be carried out by suitably trained
personnel in accordance with the applicable code of practice (EN 60079-14 and
EN 60079-17 in Europe).
7. Repair of this equipment shall be carried out by suitably trained personnel in
accordance with the applicable code of practice (e.g. EN 60079-19 within Europe).
8. Components to be incorporated into or used as replacements in the equipment shall
be fitted by suitably trained personnel in accordance with the manufacturer’s
documentation.
9. It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that manual override is possible in order
to shut down the equipment and protective systems incorporated within automatic
processes which deviate from the intended operating conditions, provided that this
does not compromise safety.
10. The ‘X’ suffix to the certificate number relates to the following special conditions for
safe use:
a.
Parts of the enclosure may be non-conducting and may generate an ignition-
capable level of electrostatic charge under certain extreme conditions. The
user should ensure that the equipment is not installed in a location where it
may be subjected to external conditions (such as high-pressure steam) which
might cause a build-up of electrostatic charge on non-conducting surfaces.
b. As either Aluminum, Magnesium, Titanium or Zirconium may be used at the
accessible surface of the equipment, in the event of rare incidents, ignition
sources due to impact and friction sparks could occur. This shall be considered
when the SITRANS Probe LU (PROFIBUS PA) is being installed in locations that
specifically require group II, category 1G equipment.
