When wiring to Increased Safety terminal
enclosures, you are only permitted to connect one
wire into each way on the terminal block, unless a
pair of wires are crimped into a suitable ferrule.
Wire sizes allowable are 0.5sqmm to4.0sqmm
The terminals are only permitted to be wired with
cable in an ambient temperature range of between
-10°C to 80°C. All terminal screws, used or
unused, must be fully tightened down.
Leads connected to the terminals must be
insulated for the appropriate voltage and this
insulation must extend to within 1mm of the metal
of the terminal throat.
8) Testing unit operation
The push button unit can be tested without the
need to replace any element.
To test, lift the cover lift flap to reveal the push
button. The button should be pressed into the body
to activate the unit and place it into the operated
condition.
The call point switch will now change over its
contacts to operate the alarm.
Once testing is complete the unit needs to be reset
from the operated condition.
Rotate the push button anticlockwise by an angle
of 55°, see guide alignment marks on the button
and cover, shown below (1). The push button
should pop back up to its original position.
Ensure that the push button has also twisted back
clockwise by 55° to its original position see guide
marks on button and cover, shown below (2). The
unit is now reset.
1. On operated unit 2. Button should pop
twist push button up and twist back to
anticlockwise 55° original position
to reset
Resetting an operated unit is the same as resetting
a tested unit.

4) Installation Requirements
Installation of this equipment shall only be carried
out by suitably trained personnel in accordance
with the applicable code of practice e.g.
IEC 60079-14/EN 60079-14
A) Repair of this equipment shall only be carried
out by the manufacturer or in accordance with the
applicable code of practice e.g. IEC 60079-19/EN
60079-19.
B) The certification of this equipment relies on the
following materials used in its construction:
Enclosure: GRP - Glass Reinforced Polyester
Through enclosure mechanism: Plastic Nylon Zytel
Injection Moulded
Sealing of enclosure and mechanism: O-ring
Acrylonitrile-Butadiene Rubber
If the equipment is likely to come into contact with
aggressive substances, then it is the responsibility
of the user to take suitable precautions that prevent
it from being adversely affected, thus ensuring that
the type of protection is not compromised.
“Aggressive substances” - e.g. acidic liquids, gases
or solvents that may affect polymeric materials.
“Suitable precautions” - e.g. regular checks as part
of routine inspections or establishing from the
material’s data sheet that it is resistant to specific
chemicals.
Refer to certificates SIRA 09ATEX3286X and
IECEx SIR 09.0121X for special conditions of safe
use.
Under extreme conditions the unit may generate an
ignition-capable level of electrostatic charges. The
unit must not be installed in a location where it may
be subjected to external conditions (such as high
pressure steam) which may cause a build-up of
electrostatic charges on non-conducting surfaces.
Cleaning of the unit must only be carried out with a
damp cloth.
5) Call Point Location and Mounting
The location of the call point should enable ease of
access for operation and testing. The unit should
be mounted using the 4 off fixing holes which will
accept up to M4 sized fixings.
View of base unit showing fixing centres (in mm).
To gain access to the mounting holes in the base
the front cover must be removed.
This is achieved by removing the 4 off M4 cap
head bolts holding on the cover.
Once the screws are removed the cover will hang
down out of the way to gain access to the Ex e
terminal block, the internal earth terminal and
mounting hole recesses.
6) Earthing
The unit has an internal earth terminal.
It is recommended that a cable crimp lug is used
on the earth wires.
The internal earth wire is placed under a earth
clamp which will stop the cable twisting. This is
secured by an M4 screw and spring washer.

7) Cable connections
There are 3 off cable entries for M20x1.5 Ex e
approved cable glands or stopping plugs with a
minimum ingress protection of IP66.
The unit can be wired in a number of different ways
depending whether normally open or normally
closed contacts are required.
