Remarks for safe use in hazardous areas

Functions and features

• Use in hazardous areas according to the classification

II 3D

(group II, category 3D, apparatus for dust atmosphere).

Complies with the requirements of the standards EN 60079-0 and EN 60079-31.

• Marking

II 3D Ex tc IIIC T90°C Dc X IP65/67

• Permissible operating temperature of the application (proper usage):

Ta: -20°C...+60°C

Installation / Set-up

The units must only be installed, connected and set up by qualified staff. The qualified staff

must have knowledge of protection classes, regulations and provisions for apparatus in

hazardous areas.

Check whether the classification (see "Marking" above and marking on the unit) is suitable

for the application.

Installation remarks / Installation

• Adhere to the relevant national regulations and provisions.

• The relevant installation regulations must be adhered to. In particular, take into account the

requirements relating to the temperature limitation as regards the expected dust deposits.

• Avoid electrostatic charging on housings and cables.

• To avoid electrostatic charging steps must be taken to ensure the equalisation of potential

of metal parts (plug housing, fixing elements, etc.).

• Protect the units and the cables efficiently against damage.

• To avoid soiling, do not remove the dust caps from the cable glands or the plugs until

introducing the cables or attaching the socket.

• After the electrical connection has been made fully insert the terminal chamber onto

the sensor and tighten the nut onto the terminal chamber using a spanner (a/f 36 mm)

(tightening torque min. 10 Nm).

• Maintenance intervals are application-specific and therefore need to be defined by the

operator depending on the operating conditions.

• During maintenance, especially those parts on which the type of protection depends need

to be examined (e.g. integrity of the components of the cable gland, of the seals).

Special conditions for safe operation

• For units with terminal chamber (cable gland) and cable units a sufficient strain relief must

be ensured or the cable must be firmly laid.

• Do not disconnect the cables from units with terminal chamber while live.

• The housing and housing parts made of plastic were tested in accordance with

EN 60079-0 for group II and for a low mechanical risk with an impact energy of 4 joules.

• Avoid direct radiation with high UV components (sunlight). Mount the unit in a protected

place.

• Where units require an additional fuse, this must be located outside the hazardous areas.

Maintenance / repair

The unit must not be modified nor can it be repaired. In case of a fault please contact the

manufacturer.

Data sheets, EC declaration of conformity and EC type test certificates are available from

the manufacturer on request.
