11.2.1 ATEX Intended use
The Control Module QC44.xP1*xx1 of the Bettis
Q-Series pneumatic actuator is Group II category 1
equipment and intended for use in areas in which
explosive atmospheres caused by mixtures of air
and gases, vapours, mists or by air/dusts are likely
to occur.

Type Label
The pneumatic actuator part, together with the
pneumatic Module part of the Bettis Q-Series pneu-
matic actuators is a Group II category 2 equipment
and intended for use in areas in which explosive
atmospheres caused by mixtures of air and gases,
vapours, mists or by air/dusts are likely to occur.
Therefore it may be used in (ATEX) classified Zones
1, 2 (Gasses) and/or 21, 22 (Dust).
11.2.2 Special conditions for safe use
• The material for the Control Module housing is
an aluminum alloy. When the unit is used in a
potentionally explosive atmosphere, requiring
ATEX equipment category 1 G, the unit must be
installed in such a way, that even in the event of
rare incidents, an ignition source due to impact
or friction between the enclosure and iron/steel
is prevented.
• Only non-combustible fluids may be used in the
pneumatic circuit.
Note: the surface temperature of the module has
been determined without a dust layer.
• Potential electrostatic charging hazard, clean
only with a damp cloth - danger of propagating
discharge.
• The apparatus shall be installed in such a way
that the risk from electrostatic discharges and
propagating brush discharges caused by rapid
flow of dust is avoided.
• Precaution shall be taken to avoid danger of
ignition due to electrostatic charges on the
marking plate of the enclosure.
