Safety instructions
The supplied Ex empty enclosures are U-
certified components which serve as a basis for
completely certified devices which then in their
entirety must still be tested and approved by a
specified agency for capability for use in poten-
tially explosive areas.
The enclosure may be operated only if it is
clean and not damaged in any way. Dust
deposits > 5 mm (> 0.2 in) must be removed.
Utilization in areas other than those specified or
the modification of the product by anyone other
than the manufacturer is not permitted and will
exempt BARTEC Varnost from liability for
defects and any further liability.
The generally applicable statutory rules and
other binding directives relating to workplace
safety, accident prevention and environmental
protection must be observed.
Observe the applicable laws and directives
when commissioning or restarting operation.
Always follow the safety instructions on the
operating equipment.
Marking
Particularly important points in these instruc-
tions are marked with a symbol:
DANGER indicates a hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, will result in death or
serious injury.
WARNING indicates a hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in death or
serious injury.
CAUTION indicates a hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in minor or
moderate injury.
NOTICE is used to address practices not
related to personal injury.
Note
Important instructions and information on
effective, economical and environmentally
compatible handling.
Standards conformed to
EN 60079-0:2012/IEC 60079-0:2011
EN 60079-7:2007/IEC 60079-7:2006-07

Transport, storage
Risk of injury due to heavy loads.
Use an appropriate carrying aid or an
appropriate means of transport (e.g. a fork-
lift) with an adequate load-carrying ability.
Ensure that the lifted load will not tip over
or slip off.
Damage through incorrect transport or
incorrect storage.
Transport the empty enclosure in original
packaging, handle with care, and do not
drop.
Store the empty enclosures dry in original
packaging.
Assembly, installation, and
commissioning
Risk of serious injury due to incorrect
proceedings.
Only qualified personnel who are
authorized and trained to assemble electri-
cal components in hazardous (potentially
explosive) areas may do any of the as-
sembly, disassembly, installation and
commissioning work.
For assembly and operation of explosion
protected electrical equipment, relevant in-
stallation and operating regulations are to
adhere (e.g. Betr.SichV, IEC/EN 60079-14
and series DIN VDE 0100).
The data on the label and the EEC design
test data are to be observed. Further tech-
nical information is provided in the Bartec
catalog and on the product itself.
Do not open the enclosure when ener-
gized.
Follow the components mounting instruc-
tions/operating instructions.
Assembly / disassembly
Damage to elements due to incorrect
installation dimensions.
The minimum spacing between the mount-
ing holes must be observed.
When processing the enclosures, attention
must be paid to ensuring that there is suitable
minimum spacing between individual boreholes
and from the sealing edge of the enclosure so
that enclosure with the fittings will be able to
withstand an impact test.
The minimum spacing depends on the geomet-
rical dimensions of the built-in components, a
longer lever will require an increase in the
minimum spacing and accordingly must be
determined specially.
For accommodating use only components
certified for the Ex areas such as terminals,
switches, cable glands measuring instruments,
control equipment and display units.
Check when assembling:
Use suitable tools.
Pay attention to the type of mounting
required (for fitting into enclo-
sure/attachment with junction box).
For enclosures placed in outdoors, steps
must be taken to ensure smooth opera-
tion, for example rain protected roofs, and
if necessary, sufficient enclosure protec-
tion.
Installation
Risk of injury due to incorrect proceedings.
Extensions or modifications to the enclo-
sure are only permissible if the manufac-
turer’s approval is obtained first.
The IEC/EN60079-14 must be observed.
Installations for the highly combustible range
must exhibit an EEC design inspection certifi-
cate. Installation of these components must
take place in such way, so that at least the
enclosure remains IP54.
Connection of cables and conductors to equip-
ment in hazardous areas require Ex certified
entries, which are suitable for respective cable
and conductor types. They must possess the
protection type “e” and contain a suitable seal-
ing gasket, so that protection class of the
enclosure remains at least IP54.
Metallic conductor entries must be connected to
the ground. Unused holes for cable entries
must been sealed with EC-certified plugs.
