Validity
Specifi c processes and instructions in this instruction manual require special
provisions to guarantee the safety of the operating personnel.
Target Group, Personnel
Responsibility for planning, assembly, commissioning, operation,
maintenance, and dismounting lies with the plant operator.
The personnel must be appropriately trained and qualifi ed in order to carry
out mounting, installation, commissioning, operation, maintenance, and
dismounting of the device. The trained and qualifi ed personnel must have
read and understood the instruction manual.
Reference to Further Documentation
Observe laws, standards, and directives applicable to the intended use
and the operating location. Observe Directive 1999/92/EC in relation to
hazardous areas.
The corresponding datasheets, manuals, declarations of conformity, EC-
type-examination certifi cates, certifi cates, and control drawings if applicable
(see datasheet) are an integral part of this document. You can fi nd this
information under www.pepperl-fuchs.com.
Intended Use
The GUB series of Ex db IIC certifi ed enclosures forms the optimal basis
for the application-specifi c confi guration of terminal boxes, control stations
as well as control and distribution panels. A wide range of components and
control functions can be integrated in one out of many sizes of Ex db and Ex
tb certifi ed fl ameproof enclosures. They are manufactured from copper-free
aluminum with increased corrosion resistance or from high-quality stainless
steel. This durability and the comprehensive enclosure sizes cover the
requirements of many industries including off shore and marine applications.
A choice of windows allows viewing of integrated monitoring functions.
Electrical components can be integrated as per customer specifi cation.
Mounting and Installation
Observe the installation instructions according to IEC/EN 60079-14.
If you intend to install the device or enclosure in areas that may be exposed
to aggressive substances, ensure that the stated surface materials are
compatible with these substances. If required, contact Pepperl+Fuchs for
further information.
If mounting the enclosure on concrete use expansion anchors. When
mounting the enclosure to a steel framework use vibration resistant mounting
material.
Protect the device against long-term or excessive mechanical vibrations.
Observe the following points when installing cable glands:
• Only use cable glands that are suitably certifi ed for the application.
• Only use cable glands with a temperature range appropriate to the
application.
• Ensure that the degree of protection is not violated by the cable glands.
If you use cable glands with cylindrical thread, secure the cable glands
against loosening by suitable glue or similar means.
For control panels with IECEx certifi cation, only use cable glands with metric
thread or NPT thread.
ENG
Mount the device so that it complies with the specifi ed degree of protection
according to IEC/EN 60529.
Ensure that the degree of protection is not violated by the cable glands and
the stopping plugs.
Close all unused enclosure holes with the appropriate stopping plugs.
The enclosure cover is heavy. In order to avoid personal injuries or property
damage, make appropriate provisions for the mounting procedure.
Do not damage the fl amepath surfaces between enclosure and enclosure
cover during the opening of the control panel.
If one of the fl amepath surfaces is damaged, exchange enclosure and
enclosure cover.
Do not add additional components into the control panel, which are not listed
in the original bill of materials.
Observe the tightening torque of the terminal screws.
The delivered control panel is completely wired. Do not modify or manipulate
this control panel. Observe the wiring diagram when connecting the control
panel.
Ensure that external ground connections exist, are in good condition, and are
not damaged or corroded.
In order to minimize power dissipation, observe the maximum possible
conductor lengths.
If radio frequency sources are present in the device, the usage of the device
is bound to local restrictions. Ensure that the local restrictions allow usage of
this device before commissioning.
Associated Apparatus / Intrinsically Safe Circuits
• When the control panel is equipped with an associated apparatus with
intrinsically safe circuits and the panel is in addition equipped with
a thermal probe for protecting the I.S. apparatus against ambient
temperatures where it is not designed for, this thermal probe has to be
connected to either an internal or external switch which switches OFF
the power for the I.S. apparatus in case the temperature inside of the
panel reaches the upper or lower thresholds of the I.S. apparatus. If
an external temperature switch is used, the user has to confi gure the
settings of that switch according to the following rules:
• Maximum temperature response threshold of [(TIEx-2) ±2°C]
TIEx = Maximum value of the certifi ed ambient temperature of the
internal I.S. apparatus.
• Minimum temperature response threshold of [(TminEx+2)±2°C].
TminEx = minimum value of the certifi ed ambient temperature of the
internal I.S. apparatus.
Schedule of Limitations
The width of the fl ameproof joints is superior to those specifi ed in the tables
of EN/IEC 60079-1. Always contact Pepperl+Fuchs in case of any repairs of
the fl ameproof joints.
When devices certifi ed for hazardous areas are included in the solution,
their limitations as specifi ed in their respective documentation have to be
respected.
Operation, Maintenance, Repair
Observe IEC/EN 60079-17 for maintenance and inspection.
The device must be disconnected from the power supply prior to installation
and maintenance. The power supply may be activated only after all the
circuits required for operation have been fully assembled and connected.
If the control panel was aff ected by a short circuit, check the following.
Check the functionality of the control panel.
Check that the integrity of the fl ameproof enclosure is present.
If the enclosure is damaged, replace enclosure and enclosure cover.
Check all surfaces of the fl amepath for damage. If an actuator is present,
check the fl amepaths of the actuator for damage.
If the surfaces of the fl amepath are damaged, replace the enclosure and the
enclosure cover. If the surfaces of the fl amepath of an actuator are damaged
replace the complete actuator.
Do not paint or varnish the surfaces of the fl amepath.
Enclosures with degree of protection IP66/67 have seals in the fl amepath.
Ensure that all seals are clean, undamaged, and correctly fi tted.
If there is a defect, always replace the device with an original device.
Safety-relevant markings are found on the nameplate supplied. Ensure
that the nameplate is present and legible. Take the ambient conditions into
account.
If the internal equipment contains a battery and a potentially explosive
atmosphere is present, do not open the enclosure.
If the device is installed in potentially explosive dust atmosphere, remove dust
layers which exceed 5 mm in regular intervals.
Avoid electrostatic charges which could result in electrostatic discharges
while installing, operating, or maintaining the device.
If cleaning is necessary while the device is located in a hazardous area, in
order to avoid electrostatic charging only use a clean damp cloth.
Do not modify or manipulate the device.
Modifi cations are permitted only if approved in this instruction manual.
Delivery, Transport, Disposal
Disposing of device and packaging must be in compliance with the applicable
laws and guidelines of the respective country.
