(PPE) shall be used to further reduce risks if required. NOTE: The sampler may be installed or used in a potentially explosive environment ONLY when specified as such by GSI and when carrying the relevant ATEX rating. Refer to the ATEX Compliance that follows. Electrical Safety Equipment shall include: 1.

12. All electrical design, installation and testing must be carried out by a qualified electrical engineer, in accordance with EU Directives and Standards, local laws and codes. Specific reference should be made to EN 60204 for electrical equipment and controls. PNEG-2175CE CE Compliant Sampler - Model GCE 45 and GCE 90...
ATEX Control Requirements (Zones 22 and 21) 1. To prevent excessive motor temperatures, the motors are provided with internal thermal switches. These must be installed into the control system in the locations provided or, for non-GSI controls, in the location identified by the control manufacturer.
5. Under certain circumstances it may be necessary to remove guards. Only do this when the sampler and other associated equipment is isolated and locked out from the power supply. 6. Never operate the sampler with the guards removed. PNEG-2175CE CE Compliant Sampler - Model GCE 45 and GCE 90...
Sampler Controls on Page 23 operate the sampler in manual mode. NOTE: This only applies where the GSI Sample Sentinel controls are being used. For other control types, refer to the control manufacturer. 4. NEVER attempt to intervene or work on the sampler when powered up, even when in manual mode.
The GCE 90 sampler is typically mounted vertically into a gravity flowing conveying line carrying the product to be sampled. The GCE 45 sampler is typically mounted into a sloping gravity flowing conveying line. The sampler axis must be installed parallel to the axis of the product line for optimum performance.
The prospective short circuit current shall not exceed that stated on the control rating plate. PNEG-2175CE CE Compliant Sampler - Model GCE 45 and GCE 90...
6. Operation Sampler Controls It is recommended the sample be controlled via the GSI Sample Sentinel control system, which can be supplied as full stand-alone control (SA) or safety interface (SI) versions. These are pre-programmed and configured for safe, efficient use of the sampler. Where the sampler is part of a larger facility and is to be controlled by third party controls, the SI version is recommended.
