Ex d Enclosure
Conditions for use:
Do not turn or handle by the housing (Fig. 2).
Use the correct tool during installation (Fig. 3)
Periodic visual inspection of the CF12 is
required to check for corrosion or deposit build-
up. If deposits are found, clean the sensor to
ensure optimum performance.
Care should be taken when handling and
installing probes with coated rods to avoid
scratching them. Scratching the coating could
interfere with the probe performance.
When cleaning the rod use a soft brush or any
other similar object.
Do not open the enclosure in a flammable
atmosphere when there is power supplied to the
unit.
2) The hazardous area approvals apply to the
equipment using a sealed conduit and not cable
glands. When mounting the CF12 in a
hazardous area, only cable glands to EN60079-
31, EN60079-1, IEC60079-1 and IEC60079-31
may be used.
3) All conduit seal fittings must be certified as
flame proof “d”, dust ignition protection “tb” and
have a minimun IP66 rating equal to the marking
on the enclosure.
4) All unused device openings must be fitted with
a certified plug rated the equivalent or greater
than the marking on the device.
