1�7 Area of use nVent RAYCHEM NGC-40-SLIM limiters are used for temperature limiting of electrical heaters in industrial and potentially explosive atmospheres. The RAYCHEM NGC-40-SLIM is a safety temperature limiter. RAYCHEM NGC-40-SLIM units are approved for use in non-hazardous areas. Where needed the temperature sensor of the unit can be placed in Zone 1, Zone 2, Zone 21 and Zone 22 when the sensor is hazardous area approved.
2 TECHNICAL DATA 2�1 Product Description The NGC-40-SLIM module is used as safety temperature limiter within the NGC-40 control and monitoring system. The module has one output for the contactor, one alarm output and one digital input. The alarm output can be used to control an external annunciator.

RAYCHEM NGC-40-SLIM units can be reset by means of a Trip Reset push button, an external hardwired signal or via dedicated software. The output of the unit will only be enabled when all conditions are safe;...
The safety temperature limiter operates totally independent of the temperature control system and has its own temperature inputs (RTD Limiter). In case of a defect to any part of the RAYCHEM NGC-40-SLIM unit the device shall be de-energized before replacing the defective equipment.
In the case of the RAYCHEM NGC-40-SLIM this is set at 12 months (1 year) intervals. These tests must be performed according to the guidelines provided.
3�12 Safety Integrity level The safety integrity level of the RAYCHEM NGC-40-SLIM is SIL2. The SIL level can be achieved by determining the following safety related parameters: • PFDavg: The average probability of the hazardous failure of a safety function when it is demanded;...
The following table presents the achievable safety integrity level (SIL), depending on the safe failure fraction (SFF) and the hardware failure tolerance (HFT) for Type A safety-related subsystems. Table 7 is valid for the RAYCHEM NGC-40-SLIM: Safe failure fraction (SFF) Hardware fault tolerance (HFT) for Type A SFF <...
