Application The Uras 14-Ex analyzer module is capable of measuring non-combustible and
combustible gases under atmospheric conditions which can form an explosive
environment (Zone 1).
Design For use in Zone 1 and Zone 2 (combustible measurement gas) the analyzer module
is installed in a pressure-tight cylinder.
The analyzer module consists of the following components:
• Flange on which the analyzer is mounted
• Cylinder with threaded cap, the cylinder screws into threads in the flange.
All electrical and gas connections are made through the flange.
• Power supply and system bus lines are routed through pressure-tight cable
openings.
• Gas inlet and outlet lines are routed through flame traps.

Housing purge To protect the analyzer module sensor electronics against the entry of an
aggressive atmosphere or corrosive sample gas components, a purge gas can flow
through the pressure-tight cylinder.
The purge gas is routed in and out via two flame traps.
