2.2 Intended use
The product is a leak detector for liquid-based systems of class II as per EN
13160-1 and EN 13160-3.
The product consists of a leak detection fluid container, a probe and a control
unit.
The leak detection fluid container and the probe are intrinsically safe pieces
of equipment (apparatus) that may be operated in hazardous areas, zones 0,
1 and 2.
The control unit may only be used as a display unit for the probe. It is an asso-
ciated apparatus that may only be operated outside of the hazardous area.
The product may only be used to monitor double-walled tanks containing leak
detection fluid in the interstitial space and used for the aboveground storage
liquids.
Since July 2003, the product may no longer be used for newly installed dou-
ble-walled underground tanks. Systems installed prior to this date may con-
tinue to be monitored with the product.
Tanks
• Double-walled containers which are operated under atmospheric condi-
tions and which are suitable for the connection of a liquid-based leak
detection system.
If no retention facility for escaping leak detection fluid is available, the volume
of the interstitial space of the system must not exceed 1 m³.
Only one tank may be monitored with the product.
Liquids
• Water-polluting liquids
Approved storage media
If the tanks are operated under atmospheric conditions and depending on the
design of the tanks, water-polluting liquids with the following densities may be
stored in the tanks:
• Tanks as per DIN 6616 type A, DIN 6623-2 and DIN 6624-2
≤ 2.5 m Ø permissible density ≤ 1.90 g/cm³
≤ 2.9 m Ø permissible density ≤ 1.85 g/cm³
Any use other than the application explicitly permitted in these operating
instructions is not permitted and causes hazards.
Verify that the product is suitable for the application planned by you prior to
using the product. In doing so, take into account at least the following:
