EU Declaration of Conformity in accordance with Directive 2014/34/EU, Annex X
We hereby declare, under our sole responsibility, that the device conforms
Designation: Flow limiter
Type: SMBM-…EEX
Item number: 5788-… / 6788-…
Year of manufacture: See type plate
to all relevant harmonization legislation of the European Union at the time of placing on the market.
The technical documentation pursuant to: ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU Annex VIII No. 2 has been compiled and filed with a conformity assessment body.
2011/65/EU: RoHS II

The device must not be put into service until it has been established that the machinery into which it is to be incorporated is in compliance with the
provisions of ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU, Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, and all other applicable Directives.

Classification as simple electrical equipment in accordance with
EN 60079-14, No. 16.4
for use in potentially explosive atmospheres as defined in the ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU
We hereby confirm that the signal transmitter
Item number: 24-1072-2125
Year of manufacture: See type plate
is merely a passive switching element with a max. internal capacitance of C i =1 nF and an internal inductance of L i = 5 μH and in its
entirety does not contain any own ignition sources.
Signal transmitter 24-1072-2125 is a passive construction element which, for the purpose of the intrinsically safe ignition protection
rating "i," is to be regarded as a piece of so-called simple electrical equipment in accordance with the requirements of the standard DIN
EN 60079-11, No. 5.7, when it is connected to an intrinsically safe electrical circuit with the following maximum values:
U i = 30 V
P i = 1 W
I i = 100 mA
Simple electrical equipment of this kind is independent of the device level. Simple electrical equipment must be clearly identifiable by
permanent labeling. It can be labeled by the constructor by some kind of designation marking or coding that is preferred for the system.
For SKF, this identification is performed by the blue connection cable that belongs to the signal transmitter.

Explosion protection marking in accordance with Directive
2014/34/EU
SMBM flow limiters without electrical attachments
The ignition hazard analysis conducted in accordance with EN 80079-36 / -37 found that SKF flow limiters of the series SMBM without
electrical attachments do not constitute own potential sources of ignition. They consequently do not fall under the scope of Directive
2014/34/EU and thus do not bear explosion protection marking. To better incorporate the flow limiters into the operator's explosion
protection concept, these flow limiters have been equipped with an equipotential bonding terminal.
Combination of the SMBM flow limiters with electrical
attachments
Signal transmitter 24-1072-2125
No additional ignition source results from the combination of the flow limiter described with the signal transmitters specified in these
instructions, as it is to be classified as simple electrical equipment in accordance with EN 60079-14, No. 16.4. These flow limiters are also
designated as ATEX flow limiters in the following. See associated classification as simple electrical equipment in accordance with EN
60079-14, No. 16.4, page 2.
Pulse generator 2340-00000091
II 1G Ex ia IIC T6…T1 Ga / II 1D Ex ia IIIC T135 °C Da / -20…+57 °C
3/2 changeover valve 24-1254-3437
II 2G Ex e mb IIC T4 Gb / -20...+70 °C
As a result of the combination of the described flow limiters with the pulse generator/changeover valve specified in these instructions,
these devices thus fall within the application range of the directive 2014/34/EU and are therefore bear an explosion protection marking.
