 ATEX directive 2014/34/EU – specific regulations for safe
operation
The following applies to BRS devices if you operate them in areas with
explosive gases according to ATEX directive 2014/34/EU:
 List of standards:
EN IEC 60079-0:2018
EN 60079-7:2015 + A1:2018
EN IEC 60079-15:2019
 Make sure that the device has the following label:
II 3G Ex ec nC IIC T4 Gc DEKRA 20ATEX0134 X
T4: 0 °C ≤ Ta ≤ +60 °C (+32 °F ≤ Ta ≤ +140 °F) for device types “S”
or “C”
(Position 16 of the product code) or
T4: -40 °C ≤ Ta ≤ +70 °C (-40 °F ≤ Ta ≤ +158 °F) for device types
“T“, “E“ or “G”
(Position 16 of the product code)
 The equipment is suitable for use in an area with maximum pollution
degree 2, as defined in IEC 60664-1.
 The modules shall be installed in a suitable enclosure in accordance
with IEC 60079-0 providing a degree of protection of at least IP54
according to IEC 60529, taking into account the environmental
conditions under which the equipment will be used.
 When the temperature under rated conditions exceeds +70 °C
(+158 °F) at the cable or the conduit entry point, or +80 °C (+176 °F)
at the branching point of the conductors, take measures so that the
temperature specification of the selected cable and cable entries is in
compliance with the actual measured temperature values.
 Connectors shall be connected or disconnected exclusively in dead-
voltage state.
When using ACA22-USB-C (EEC) on the USB interface, verify
that the ACA22-USB-C (EEC) is mechanically secured with the
fastening screw. Exclusively connect or disconnect the ACA22-
USB-C (EEC) when it is voltage-free. In hazardous areas,
exclusively operate the ACA22-USB-C (EEC) on the USB
interface.
