  • Page 35: Manifold Valves

    The 6500 system requires a purge/pressurization supply source. This flow/pressure is usually supplied by an electrical valve or manual valves. Pepperl+Fuchs offers optional valves for operation with the 6500 system for both standard applications (digital valves) and dilution applications (proportional valves).

    PeraTion 3. Installation and Operation The 6500 control unit, EPV6500 vent, and manifold can be universally mounted to the customer’s enclosure to produce a certifiable system, configurable to either a “pyb” or “pxb” system. For “pyb” systems, all electrical equipment within the pressurized enclosure must be rated Zone 2 or 22, if applicable, and the enclosure contacts do not have to be de-energized when loss of pressure, but an alarm has to be activated.

  • Page 40 PeraTion For dilution to properly be applied, the 6500 system would have to use the continuous vent (EPV-6500-__-07 or 08) and a proportional valve like the 6500-MAN-PV. The continuous vent accurately measures the pressure and flow across an open orifice plate inside the vent to give flow vs.

    These factors also affect the over and under shoot of the proportional valve. Reaction times are dependent on the complete system and final adjustments may have to be made while the system is commissioned. 3.2. Before Setup When the 6500-01-* control unit is received, the humidity indicator card should be checked.
  • Page 42 6500 S  i erieS anual nSTallaTion and PeraTion If the indicator card is reading 40 or 50, follow the instructions on the desiccant pack to recharge it. Once recharged, or if the indicator card is reading 30 or below upon receipt, proceed with commissioning the unit.

  • Page 43: Setup Procedures For Standard Applications

    Define the 6500 system parameters in the menu structure for the application. Refer to “Programming Menu” section for instructions. Set the user interface on the 6500 control unit to pressure for indication of enclosure pressure. Turn on the protective gas supply. Set the regulator to its lowest setting and then gradually increase pressure.

  • Page 44: Operation For Standard Applications

    If the enclosure pressure drops below the minimum overpressure setpoint, then • action is required. For “pyb”, enclosure contacts can remain on, but an alarm must be initiated (this is done through the AUX contacts on the 6500 control unit). DANger! gas and combustible dust locations EN and IEC 60079-2 standards do not state these requirements.
