Special Conditions for Safe Use:
The Gas Detectors have a threaded wire feed through incorporating flying leads. This feed through is to be
screwed into the cable entry opening of a suitable ATEX certified (Ex ‘d’ or Ex ‘e’) enclosure in which the flying
leads are to be terminated.
In order to maintain the Ingress Protection rating IP
66
, the back end of the PointWatch Infrared Hydrocarbon
Gas Detector Model PIR
9400
with the flying lead is to be screwed into a suitable ATEX certified (Ex ‘d’ or Ex ‘e’)
enclosure with an Ingress Protection rating of at least IP
66
.
The PointWatch Infrared Hydrocarbon Gas Detector Model PIR
9400
has an ambient temperature rating for
performance of –
55°
C to +
75°
C.
The PointWatch Infrared Hydrocarbon Gas Detector Model PIR
9400
is to be used only in conjunction with a suitable
ATEX certified combustible gas detector control unit for compliance with EN
60079-29-1
standard.
The captive front-end screws are to be tightened with
1
N·m.
