3. Commissioning, operation
Installation in zone 22 (dust)
The requirements of EN 60079-0 and EN/IEC 60529 must be followed.
The surface temperature of the equipment must not be high enough to ignite disturbed
dust or dust deposited on the equipment.
EN
Without dust deposit
■
The surface temperature may not exceed 2/3 of the ignition temperature in °C of the
respective dust/air mixture (EN/IEC 60079-14).
With dust deposit
■
On surfaces where a dangerous deposit of ignitable dust is not effectively prevented,
the surface temperature may not exceed a temperature of 75 K less than the ignition
temperature of the respective dust. With layer thicknesses over 5 mm, a further
reduction of the temperature is necessary.
3.2 Electrical mounting
Using a transmitter/digital display (option):
Observe the contents of the operating instructions for the transmitter/digital display (see
scope of delivery).
Built-in transmitters/digital displays have their own EC-type examination certificate. The
permissible ambient temperature ranges of built-in transmitters can be taken from the
corresponding transmitter approval.
Observe the special conditions (see chapter 4 "Special conditions for use (X conditions)",
point K).
In terms of connection, the thermometer has a case and a connector or bare wire ends.
The case design will contain the connection terminals or certified transmitters. Optionally,
separately certified digital displays can be built into the cases.
