INSTRUCTIONS SPECIFIC TO HAZARDOUS AREA INSTALLATIONS
(Ref : EU ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU)
1. The head is classified as flameproof equipment and is marked:
BAS01ATEX2110X
II 2G Ex db IIC T5 Gb
T
amb
= -20°C to +60°C
2W/5V MAX
The head should only be used within the limits imposed by this certification and by these conditions of use.
2. The head may be used in a hazardous area without further mechanical protection. However, the cable requires mechanical
protection and must be terminated in a suitable enclosure.
3. The head must be efficiently earthed (grounded). This may be achieved by mounting it into an appropriate earthed metal
junction box or into a non-metallic junction box fitted with an earth continuity plate used in accordance with the box
manufacturer's instructions. There are no internal connections to the sensing head body.
4. In the event that the head becomes embedded in a junction box by over-tightening or corrosion, it may be released by the
use of a spanner or wrench on the two flat surfaces on the sides of the body.
5. There are no user serviceable parts inside the body of the sensing head, and no attempt should be made to open the body
for any purpose. The unit is non-repairable.
6. The head has not been assessed as a safety device (EHSR 1.5).
7. When installed in outdoor locations where rain or spray could interfere with the safe working of the head, or in indoor
locations where water jets, sprays, or hoses are used routinely for cleaning purposes, the head should be fitted with the
Weather Cap that is available as an accessory.
8. The end-user/installer should be aware that the certification of the head relies in its construction on the use of the following
materials, which are suitable for most common applications:
Enclosure ........... Stainless Steel
Sinter ................. Stainless Steel
Bushing .............. Epoxy resin
In accordance with the Note in EN60079-0:2006 Clause 6.1, the end-user/installer shall inform the manufacturer of any
adverse conditions that the head may encounter. This is to ensure that the head is not subject to conditions that may cause
degradation of these materials.
