1.6.2 SPECIAL CONDITIONS FOR SAFE USE
Certain models include Special Conditions for Safe Use which must be observed
prior to putting the dispensers into operation. Failure to do so will invalidate
the ATEX certification of the dispenser. These models can be identified by an
X at the end of the certificate number as shown on the dispenser typeplate.
The Special Conditions for Safe Use are identified in the ATEX EC Type-
Examination Certificates and are repeated below:-
•Where a dispenser is supplied without hoses and/or nozzles, they shall be fitted
in accordance with:
- Hoses : EN1360 or EN13483
- Nozzles: EN13012
•When used for ethanol (blend) dispensing, the fuel specification must be less
than or equal to 85% ethanol, with minimum water content.
•The metering pumps and dispensers are designed for use in open air. Where a
metering pump or dispenser is positioned within a building, incorporated into
an enclosure, or integrated into a larger piece of equipment, additional measures
shall be taken to ensure that the zoning diagrams illustrated in the schedule
drawings are not compromised.
1.7 MID Dispensers
From mid 2007, Tokheim dispensers may be shipped from European factories in accordance
with the Metrological Instruments Directive (MID). Such dispensers are calibrated and
the relevant seals stamped in the factory so that the dispensers are fit for trade immediately
upon installation without the need for a local Weights and Measures inspector to put them
into use.
The dispenser is shipped with its own “MID datasheet” which documents the serial numbers
of the prime components fitted in the dispenser. This datasheet must remain with the
dispenser. Similarly dispensers are shipped with a Declaration of Conformance to the
MID. This document must not be lost as it is an essential document to allow the continued
use of the dispenser.
MID dispensers can be identified by the typeplate which
contains a reference to the MID certificate number as
shown:-
CHECKING THE SEALS
It is the responsibility of the Installer to check that all required seals are present and
correct prior to putting the dispenser into use. This includes seals on the pumping unit,
meter, pulser and calculator.
Under no circumstances must any seals be disturbed or
broken during installation.
METER CALIBRATION
A calibration check should be performed during Commissioning (refer to section 6).
If a seal is damaged or missing, or if the calibration is outwith legal tolerances or in the
unlikely event that any repair is required to a pumping unit, meter, pulser or calculator
during installation, the factory MID verification is invalidated and a local National
verification will need to be performed before the dispenser can be used.
