Incite Fire BExDS120D Instruction Manual

1) Introduction
The BExDS120D and BExDS110D are flameproof sounders
which are certified to meet the requirements of the ATEX
directive 94/9/EC and the IECEx scheme. The sounders
produce loud warning signals and can be used in hazardous
areas where potentially flammable gas and dust atmospheres
may be present. Thirty-two different first stage alarm sounds
can be selected by internal switches, and each one can be
externally changed to a second or third stage alarm sound
(see tone table on Page 4). The BExDS120D unit produces
output levels in the 117dB(A) range and the BExDS110D unit
produces output levels in the 110dB(A) range. Both sounders
can be used in Zone 1 and Zone 2 areas with gases in groups
IIA, IIB and IIC and temperature Classifications of T1, T2, T3
and T4. For ambient temperatures over +55ºC the gas groups
are limited to IIA and IIB. They can also be used in Zone 21
and Zone 22 areas for combustible dusts and have an IP rating
of IP 67 and a surface temperature rating of T100ºC up to
+55ºC and T115ºC over +55ºC.
2) Marking
All units have a rating label, which carries the following
important information:-
Input Voltage: DC Units 12V or 24V or 48V
AC Units 230V or 110V or 115V
Codes: Ex d IIC T4 for Ta –50°C to +55ºC
Ex d IIB T4 for Ta –50°C to +70ºC
Ex tD A21 IP67 T115°C based on max Ta of +70°C

Installation Requirements
The sounders must be installed in accordance with the latest
issues of the relevant parts of the EN60079 standards or the
equivalent IEC standards –
maintenance of electrical apparatus for use in potentially
explosive atmospheres (other than mining applications or
explosive processing and manufacture):-
EN60079-14:2008
IEC60079-14:2007 (Ed4)
EN60079-10:2003
IEC60079-10:2008 (Ed1)
The installation of the units must also be in accordance with
any local codes that may apply and should only be carried out
by a competent electrical engineer who has the necessary
training.

Zones, Gas Group, Category, IP Rating and
Temperature Classification
The BExDS120D and BExDS110D sounders have been
certified Ex de IIC T4 for Ta –50°C to +55ºC and Ex de IIB T4
for Ta –50°C to +70ºC for gas and Ex tD A21 IP67 T115ºC
based on max. Ta of +70ºC for dust. This means that the units
can be installed in locations with the following conditions:-
Area Classification Gas:
Zone 1 Explosive gas air mixture likely to occur in
normal operation.
Zone 2 Explosive gas air mixture not likely to occur,
and if it does, it will only exist for a short time.
Gas Groupings:
Group IIA
Group IIB
Group IIC (Up to +55ºC only)
Temperature Classification:
T1 400
T2 300
T3 200
T4 135
