E2S BExBG15D Manual De Instrucciones

1) Introduction
The BExBG15D and BExBG10D are flameproof beacons
which are certified to meet the requirements of the ATEX
directive 94/9/EC and the IECEx scheme. The beacons
produce synchronised visual warning signals and can be
used in hazardous areas where potentially flammable gas
and dust atmospheres may be present. The BExBG15D has
a flash energy of 15 joules and the BExBG10D has a flash
energy of 10 joules. Both beacons can be used in Zone 1 and
Zone 2 areas with gases in groups IIA, IIB and IIC and
Temperature Classifications of T1, T2, T3 and T4. The
beacons can also be used in the temperature classification
T5, if the upper ambient temperature is restricted to +40ºC.
The units can be used in Zone 21 and Zone 22 areas for
combustible dusts and have an IP rating of IP 67 and a
surface temperature rating of T125ºC or T110ºC if the upper
ambient temperature is restricted to +55ºC or T95ºC if the
upper ambient temperature is restricted to +40ºC.
2) Marking
All units have a rating label, which carries the following
important information:-

Flameproof Xenon Beacons
The beacons have EC Type Examination and IECEx
certificates issued by KEMA and have been approved to the
following standards:-
EN60079-0:2006 IEC60079-0:2004 (Ed4)
EN60079-1:2007 IEC60079-1:2007 (Ed6)

Installation Requirements
The beacons must be installed in accordance with the latest
issues of the relevant parts of the EN60079 standards or the
equivalent IEC standards – Selection, Installation and
maintenance of electrical apparatus for use in potentially
explosive atmospheres (other than mining applications or
explosive processing and manufacture):-
EN60079-14:2008
IEC60079-14:2007 (Ed4)
EN60079-10:2003
IEC60079-10:2008 (Ed1)
The installation of the units must also be in accordance with
any local codes that may apply and should only be carried
out by a competent electrical engineer who has the
necessary training.

Zones, Gas Group, Category, IP Rating and
Temperature Classification
The BExBG15D and BExBG10D beacons have been certified
Ex d IIC T4 for Ta –50ºC to +70ºC and Ex d IIC T5 for Ta –
50ºC to +40ºC for gas and IP67 T125ºC based on max. Ta of
This means that the units can be installed in
+70ºC.
