Standard: EN 54-3.
Description
C-9404(Ex) Explosion Proof Conventional
Sounder and C-9403(Ex) Explosion Proof
Conventional Sounder Strobe (hereinafter called the
sounder/sounder strobe) is a kind of audible/audible
and visual alarm device used to warn people in field
when fire occurs. It’s applicable to zone 1 and zone 2
of areas with explosion-proof requirement in
petroleum and chemical industries. It can match with
I-9333 Interface.
Both shallow base with 25.5mm high and deep base
with 40mm high are available, it employs deep base
if there is no special statement in this manual.
Connection & Wiring
Terminals on the base are shown in Fig. 2.

D1+(9), D2- (7): Connected with I-9333
Interface, polarized. D1 is connected with (3) of the
safety barrier and D2 to (4).
Recommended Wiring
Intrinsically safe cable with cross section not less
than 1.5mm2, subject to local codes.。
Installation
When the sounder/sounder strobe is surface
mounted, it should be placed 0.2m from the ceiling
for normal space height. When conduit is embedded,
the base can be mounted on the electrical box.
When conduit is surface mounted, the deep base
should be adopted. Knock the knock-off hole, then
connect the conduit with it. The mounting hole
spacing and mounting direction are shown in Fig. 2.
Mounting method is shown in Fig. 3a and Fig. 4.
When the shallow base is required, the
sounder/sounder strobe only adopts conduit
embedded. Its mounting method is shown in Fig. 3b.

The base and the sounder/sounder strobe are
twisted together. When mounting, remove the
sounder strobe, thread cables through the cable
entry in the base and connect with corresponding
terminals, then twist the sounder/sounder strobe
onto the base.

If the sounder/sounder strobe is required
anti-removal, knock down the arch knock-off hole as
shown in Fig. 1 and fix it with ST2.9×6.5 tapping
screws (in this case, it must be removed by a special
tool).

2．The safety barrier should be well grounded.
The screws should not be loose. Ground
resistance should not be over 1Ω. The
parameters assigned in the intrinsically safe
loop should not be over the specified value, that
is, the capacity assigned among cables should
not be over 0.02μF, the inductance assigned
not over 2mH.
