Non-electric actuators and control valve versions do not have their own
potential ignition source according to the ignition risk assessment stipu-
lated in EN 13463-1: 2009, section 5.2, even in the rare incident of an
operating fault. Therefore, they do not fall within the scope of Directive
94/9/EC. For connection to the equipotential bonding system, observe
the requirements in section 6.3 of EN 60079-14: 2014-10 (VDE 0165
