6100 Series Manual Safety Warning Labels WARNING—FOR PRESSURIZED ENCLOSURES IN HAZARDOUS GAS ENVIRONMENTS This pressurized enclosure shall not be opened unless the area is known to be free of flammable materials or unless all devices have been de-energized. Power must not be restored after the pressurized enclosure has been opened until the pressurized enclosure is completely purged of all hazardous gas and the enclosure re-pressurized.
6100 Series Manual Safety EPV-6100 Enclosure Protection Vent The EPV has an operating temperature class of 135 °C (T4 temperature class). This temperature shall be considered when mounted to an enclosure. Cables use to connect the EPV must be provided with at least 0.25 mm insulation thickness per conductive core to maintain segregation between intrinsically safe circuits.

6100 Series Manual Electrical Installation Danger! To prevent ignition of the flammable atmospheres, the wiring method must ensure that if any wire is disconnected and extended to the opposite terminal, a 2-inch separation must be maintained. For Wires Going to the DIN-Rail-Mount I.S. Board in the 6100 Control Unit: 1.
6100 Series Manual Electrical Installation Caution! Maintain a minimum space of 2" (50.8 mm) between the I.S. wiring and the non-I.S. wiring. Make sure that the wiring is neatly tucked into the explosion-proof housing. Use wire ties if necessary. As a rule, no wires are to be in the area between the two terminals.
6100 Series Manual Pneumatic Requirements Pneumatic Requirements Protective Gas Supply The protective gas supply to the enclosure system must be a clean quality compressed air or inert gas. The protective gas supply compressor intake must originate in a nonhazardous location. The suction duct passing through a hazardous location and the protective tubing and piping must be fabricated from noncombustible material suitable for the prevailing hazardous and environmental conditions.

6100 Series Manual Operation Note! The following parameters must be entered for the purge time: Enclosure volume Number of exchanges Type of vent for flow rate—enter flow rate Minimum purge time is 2 min. Fixed Purge Time The purge time is based on the known enclosure volume, number of volume exchanges, and flow rate through the vent.

6100 Series Manual Operation The "ON PRESSURE" is the lowest pressure you want in the enclosure and will start the control action on when pressure goes below this value. The "OFF PRESSURE" is when the valve shuts off. When the pressure is between these two values, nothing will happen.
Page 32
6100 Series Manual Operation Danger! Do not use auxiliary contact for power to enclosure(s). Danger! If powering auxiliary equipment with auxiliary 1 or auxiliary 2 outputs, the wiring methods used must be suitable for the hazardous area. Temperature Inputs The 6000-TEMP-01 temperature hub and 6000-TSEN-01 external temperature sensor(s) are designed to work only with the 6000 purge and pressurization system.
6100 Series Manual Operation EPV-6100 I.S. Relief Vent The EPV-6100 vent exhausts excess pressure from the enclosure when the enclosure pressure exceeds the breaking pressure of the vent's relief mechanism. This pressure is usually around 3 mbar (1.2 in wc). The EPV-6100 also has an internal measured orifice plate with a differential pressure sensor to detect pressure across this orifice plate to be converted to a flow rate.
6100 Series Manual Operation may need to be increased. The latter may cause the system to drop out of operation and require purging again because it dropped below the minimum pressure value. 8. The system is now ready to operate. Operation in Gas-Hazardous Locations Follow setup procedures for the 6100 series system above Enclosure is sealed.
6100 Series Manual Operation To cycle power to the unit, press the EXIT, Left Arrow, START/SET, and Right Arrow keys at the same time. This will cycle power to the EPCU without physically removing power. This re-cycle feature will de-energize the relays of the EPCU and reset the unit.This feature does not affect any of the settings in the menus of the EPCU.

When checking whether the pressure and flow measurements of the EPV-6100 vent are within specifications, use calibrated equipment to determine measurements, or contact a Pepperl+Fuchs representative or the factory to send back the EPV-6100 vent for pressure and flow verification.
