Marking and selection of explosion protected apparatus

It shall be emphasized that all markings described in this chapter are related to explosion protection only and shall be considered as an additional marking to that given in the standards for non-explosion protected apparatus, e.g. the manufacturer s name or his trademark, type code and rated power/ voltage/current/speed/torque, serial number etc. [Pg.109]

IEC and EN Standards ask for marking the type of protection as an abbreviation completed by the classification scheme (temperature class, explosion group) as described in the previous chapter. Table 5.1 gives a survey of the types of explosion protection and their abbreviations. Table 5.2 summarizes the IEC and EN marking code. [Pg.109]

If the apparatus has been type tested and certified (certificate of conformity, control certificate) according to the old article 100 directives, the identification mark of the notified body and the certificate number shall be affixed on the apparatus. In the same way, a component (with a component certificate) shall be marked. [Pg.109]

For the certificate number, there is a code common to all notified bodies XXXXX XX X XXXX X [Pg.109]

X = special conditions. This includes instructions for installation, operation and maintenance as well as technical data not complying with or [Pg.109]
