Appendix D - Mounting the “EExde approved”
version

The EExde approved version provides an additional EExe terminal box attached
below the EExd detector and therefore allows easier access for wiring in difficult
environments and hazardous areas (see fig. 18). The unit is prewired to the
terminals in the additional EExe terminal section ready for field wiring connections

1. Detector Mounting

The detector may be mounted on a simple fabricated bracket, or preferably the
optional Swivel Mount, Model 20/20-003. The Swivel Mount enables the detector
to be rotated up to 40 degrees in all directions.

1.1 Swivel Mount Kit -

Use the kit from the paragraph 6.5.1


1.2 Swivel installation
1 Refer to Fig.8 and Fig 9. Place the swivel mount (item 6) in its designated

location and secure it with four (4) M6 or 1/4" screws (item 11)
(recommended), placed 3.0 in. (76.2 mm.) apart on the swivel mount plate
(item 10).

Note

: Skip this step if the Swivel Mount is already installed. Also detector

removal for maintenance purpose does not require Swivel Mount removal.

2 Unpack

the

detector.

3 Place the detector, with its conduit inlets pointing down, on the holding plate of

the swivel mount (Fig. 8 item 7). Secure the detector by four (4) M6 screws
with M6 spring washers from the Swivel Mount Kit using the holes (Fig. 9 item
5). You can use the thread on the modified cover (Fig. 18 item 1) marked
either triangle symbol (∆) or square symbol (ٱ). Use No. 5 Hex Key for M6
screws.

4 Tighten the three locking 3/8"-24UNF screws (Fig. 9 item 8) of the swivel

mount ring until the friction in the ball joint holds the detector in its position.
Yet, still permits it to be moved by hand-applied force (Use 3/16" HEX KEY).

5 Point the detector towards the protected area and make certain that the view

of the area. Secure the detector in that position by tightening the locking
screws (Fig.9 item 8) of the swivel mount ring.

The detector is now correctly located and aligned and ready for connecting to the
system.
