Signal word combined with a warning sign used to signify the occurrence of a potentially dangerous situation WARNING that could result in death or serious injury if not avoided.
2. Valve protection against initiation of explosion of explosive atmosphere 2.1 Protection of electrical parts The electrical part of the valve is an ATEX and IECEx certified solenoid coil. flameproof enclosure The basic is the „d“ protection by (EN 60079-1, IEC 60079-1), which prevents the penetration of hot gases into the surroun- ding explosive atmosphere in the event that an explosion is initiated inside the flameproof enclosure.
2.3 Protection of non-electrical parts The non-electrical part of the valve consists of the hydraulic part and the solenoid actuating system. The safety of the non-electrical parts has been ensured and assessed according to EN ISO 80079-36, EN ISO 80079-37 a EN ISO/IEC 80079-38. ›...
3. Risks and limitations of product use 3.1 Risks associated with operating in explosive atmospheres Explosive atmosphere type and zone The valve must not be used outside the specified range (see paragraph 1Product use ), in particular it is not DANGER intended for equipment category M1group l (mines) zone 0 group II (gases) and zone 20 group III (dust).
4. Product description The hydraulic part of the valve consists of a cast iron body (1) with output ports on the lower base, a hardened steel spool and return springs that hold the spool in its base position. The spool is adjusted to the working positions by means of solenoids (2) certified for explosive atmospheres. The solenoid coils are fixed to the actuating system with hexagonal nut (3).
