ATEX
According to EN-1127, the unit has po-
tential sources of ignition and so falls
under the European Directive “Equip-
ment for potentially explosive atmos-
pheres” 2014/34/EU (formerly 94/9/EC).
The unit has a pressure-resistant enclo-
sure, i.e. a flameproof enclosure “d” to
EN 60079-1.
The unit is classified as Group II, Zone 1,
and so falls into Category 2 for gas are-
as.
The unit is designated as follows:
The type approval procedure to directive
94/9/EC or 2014/34/EU was carried out
by Bureau Veritas (No. 2004) as the
notified body. The design concept, manu-
facture, quality assurance and the unit
itself were subjected to the specified
examinations. There is a copy of the “EU
Type approval examination certificate”
EPS 15 ATEX 1 05 X in the appendix to
these instructions.
After 8000 switching cycles, the unit must
be checked by the manufacturer. Failure
to do so invalidates the explosion proof
approval.
In the appendix to these operating in-
structions there is a copy of the EU dec-
laration of conformity to 2014/34/EU.
