InstructIon and operatIng manual
1. GENERAL SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
1.1 RANGE OF APPLICATION
ICON 2000 electric actuators covered in this
I&O Manual are designed for the operation
of any kind of industrial valves used in heavy
industrial, chemical, petrochemical plants.
Biffi will not be liable for any possible damage
resulting from use in other than the designated
applications. Such risk lies entirely with the
user.
The noise emitted by the electric actuator
in normal working conditions is less than
66 dB (A) with peak value 115 dB (C). Standard
reference ISO 11202 (1st ed., 1995-12-15).
The electric actuators are designed in
accordance with the applicable international
rules and specifications but the following
regulations must be observed in any case:
- The general installation and safety
regulations.
- The plant specific regulations and
requirements.
- The proper use of personal protective devices
(glasses, clothing, gloves).
- The proper use of tools, lifting and transport
equipment.
1.2 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR
INSTALLATION IN HAZARDOUS AREA
WARNING
In case the electric actuator must be installed
in an HAZARDOUS AREA, as defined by the local
rules, it is mandatory to check if the nameplate
of the electric actuator specifies the appropriate
degree of protection. Maintenance and repair
works must be carried out by qualified personnel
and checked by responsible specialists.
ICONs are designed according to
IEC/EN 60079-0, IEC/EN 60079-1,
IEC/EN 50079-31 standards. Different types
of protection are available, depending on
the marking printed on the actuator label:
Ex d IIB Txx, Ex d IIC Txx with “Explosion proof”
terminal board enclosure, or Ex d e IIB Txx,
Ex d e IIB+H2 Txx, Ex d e IIC Txx with “Increased
safety” terminal board enclosure. They are
suitable in hazardous area classified against
the risk of explosion for the presence of gas
and dust.
