ATEX
The Anybus Wireless Bolt are certified for use in potentially explosive atmospheres in compliance with the
following standards:
• EN 60079-0: 2012 + A11:2013
• EN 60079-15: 2010
The certification number of the Anybus Wireless Bolt certified modules according to the ATEX directive
2014/34/EU is:
• DEMKO 18 ATEX 1860X
According to the two standards listed above, the Anybus Wireless Bolt modules are certified with the
following marking:
The above marking indicates that Anybus Wireless Bolt modules are certified as electrical equipment of:
• equipment group “II” : intended for use in areas with explosive gas atmosphere other than mines
susceptible to firedamp.
• category “3 G”: intended for use in zone 2 hazardous areas, in which explosive atmospheres caused
by mixtures of air and gases, vapors or mists are present between 1 and 10 hrs/yr.
• level of protection “nA”: non-sparking (for Equipment Protection Level Gc)
• subdivision ‘IIC’: intended for use in areas where the nature of the explosive gas atmosphere is
considered very dangerous based on the Maximum Experimental Safe Gap or the Minimum Ignition
Current ratio of the explosive gas atmosphere in which the equipment may be installed (a typical gas is
hydrogen), so that the modules are also suitable for applications intended for use in subdivision IIB
(typical gas is ethylene) and subdivision IIA (a typical gas is propane). Gas group IIC is the most
stringent group and covers also groups IIB and IIA.
• temperature class “T4”: The maximum surface temperature determined shall not exceed 135 °C
• equipment protection level “Gc”: equipment for explosive gas atmospheres, having an “enhanced”
level of protection, which is not a source of ignition in normal operation and which may have some
additional protection to ensure that it remains inactive as an ignition source in the case of regular
expected occurrences (for example failure of a lamp)
