2 IK‐E280‐001GB The TUN‐38Ex heat detector covered by the present manual, complies with the requirements of the following European Union Directives: CPD 89/106/EWG on construction materials; LVD 2006/96/WE on electric equipment to be used in determined voltage range; EMC 2004/108/WE on electromagnetic compatibility; ATEX 94/9/WE on equipment and protective systems intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. The TUN‐38Ex Heat Detector has been approved with the EC‐Certificate of Conformity No. 1438/CPD/0025 issued by the Fire Protection Science and Research Centre (CNBOP) Józefów, Poland, a EU notified authority No. 1438, confirming its compliance with the requirements of PN‐EN 54‐ 5:2003 standard. ...
1 PURPOSE is designed for detection of fire hazard or fire appearance The TUN‐38Ex Heat Detector warning in closed rooms, where during the first phase of fire an occurrence of temperature rise may be observed, or where – due to various reasons – temperature may exceed the set fire danger level. It is provided for working together in fire detecting lines with control panels manufactured by POLON‐ALFA or by other producers that obtained POLON‐ALFA’s compatibility confirmation. The detector’s operational temperature is between ‐ 25 °C and + 50 °C for A1 class and + 65 °C for B class. The TUN‐38Ex heat detectors are connected to fire detecting lines through intrinsically safe barrier or separator of the following parameters: Uo ≤ 25 V, Io ≤ 99 mA. The detectors are installed in rooms and zones qualified as 1 and 2 explosive hazard category resulting from potential explosion danger ...

8 IK‐E280‐001GB Fig. 3 Exemplary TUN‐38Ex detector connection to detecting line. It is obligatory to utilize intrinsically safe barrier or separator (named in the control panel Operational Manual) in intrinsically safe detecting lines. After installing all detectors, the control panel or supplying apparatus should be switched on. Every detector must be individually checked. It is not recommend to warm up more than one detector in one detecting line. In case more than three detectors in one detecting line are warmed up at the same time a false damage (short circuit) signal ...
