GAS 222.20 Ex2
1 Introduction
1.1 Intended Use
The sample gas probe is intended for installation into gas analysis systems in commercial applications.
It may be operated in a Zone 2, explosion class IIC, explosive gas atmosphere which is rarely and only temporarily explosive. Zone
2 explosive gas atmospheres may be extracted with or transported with these probes. The probe has a temperature switch
which may only be operated as simple electrical equipment on an intrinsically-safe circuit supplied by a type-tested switch amp-
lifier.
The explosion protection markings on the probes are:
ATEX: II 3G Ex ec ic mb1 IIC T3/T4 Gc
IECEx: Ex ec ic mb1 IIC T3/T4 Gc
1 Only for versions with solenoid valve.
Sample gas probes are among the main components in a gas conditioning system.
– Therefore also note the related drawing in the data sheet in the appendix.
– Before installing the device, verify the listed technical data meet the application parameters.
– Further verify all contents are complete.
Please refer to the type plate to identify your model. In addition to the job number it also contains the item number and model
designation.
Please note the specific values of the device when connecting, and the correct versions when ordering spare parts.
Passing through gases
Flammable gases above the UEL (upper explosion limit) may only be blown back with inert gases. Flammable gases from 25% LEL
(lower explosion limit) and up to the LEL may be blown back provided the operator ensures the blown back gas is not and cannot
be explosive. For safety reasons we recommend only using inert gases in these cases as well.
Blowing back explosive atmospheres (range from LEL to UEL) with the probes is prohibited due to possible adiabatic compres-
sion (high blowback pressure against contaminated filter). The operator is responsible for compliance with these conditions tak-
ing into account his risk assessment.
