ATEX directive 94/9/EG – specific regulations for safe
operation
Relevant for RSPE devices when operating in explosive gas atmospheres
according to ATEX Directive 94/9 EC, the following applies:
List of standards:
EN 60079-0:2012, A11:2013
EN 60079-15:2010
Certificate No.: DEKRA 15ATEX0016X
Use only device variants featuring supply voltage with the
characteristic value CC.
Make sure that the device has the following label:
II 3G Ex nA IIC T4 Gc DEKRA 15ATEX0016X
for RSPE types
Ambient rating and temperature code for RSPE types:
T4: 0 °C ≤ Ta ≤ +60 °C for “S” types or
T4: −40 °C ≤ Ta ≤ +70 °C for “T” or “E” types
The modules shall be installed in a suitable enclosure in accordance
with EN 60079-15 providing a degree of protection of at least IP54
according to EN 60529, taking into account the environmental
conditions under which the equipment will be used.
When the temperature under rated conditions exceeds 70 °C at the
cable or conduit entry point, or 80 °C at the branching point of the
conductors, the temperature specification of the selected cable and
cable entries shall be in compliance with the actual measured
temperature values.
Provisions shall be made to prevent the rated voltage from being
exceeded by transient disturbances of more than 119 V.
Connectors shall be connected or disconnected exclusively in dead-
voltage state.
The USB port shall remain disconnected.
