Application of European Directives
Pressure Equipment Directive
The equipment conforms to this directive (see
"Manufacturer's Declaration" section) and can be
used for the following media:
Fluids of group 1
Fluids of group 2
ATEX Directive
The equipment does not have its own potential
ignition source and is not subject to this directive
(see "Manufacturer's Declaration" section).
When installed, static electricity may arise between
the equipment and the connected system.
When used in potentially explosive atmospheres,
the plant manufacturer or plant operator is
responsible for discharging or preventing possible
static charge.
If it is possible for medium to escape, e.g. through
actuating mechanisms or leaks in threaded joints,
the plant manufacturer or plant operator must take
this into consideration when dividing the area into
zones.
