Warnings:
DO NOT OPEN WHEN AN EXPLOSIVE
GAS ATMOSPHERE IS PRESENT
COVER BOLTS CLASS A4-80
USE HEAT RESISTING CABLES AND CABLE GLANDS
(Rated 95ºC) AT AMB. TEMPERATURES OVER 40ºC
4) Installation Requirements
Loudspeakers must be installed in accordance with the
following or equivalent standards.
BS EN 60079-14 : 1997
BS EN 60079-10 : 1996
Installation should only be carried by competent personnel
and any local codes of practice applied.
5) Zones, Gas Group, Category and Temperature
Classification
The units can be installed in locations with the following
conditions:-
Area Classification:
Zone 1
Explosive gas air mixture likely to occur in
normal operation.
Zone 2
Explosive gas air mixture not likely to occur,
and if it does, it will only exist for a short time.

7) Safety Warning (Electrostatic Hazard)
The acoustic horn section is made of ABS Plastic; therefore
to avoid a possible ELECTROSTACTIC CHARGE the unit
must only be cleaned with a damp cloth.
8) Access to the Flameproof Enclosure
See drawing B
Note the four M6 screws are Class A4-80 stainless steel
and only screws of this category can be used on these
sounders. It is therefore important that these screws and
their spring washers are kept in a safe place during
installation.
9) Power Amplifier Selection
It is important that the loudspeakers are connected to power
amplifiers that have outputs that are compatible to the type of
loudspeaker being used. Loudspeakers with a 100V line
matching transformer fitted must be connected to a power
amplifier with a 100V line output. Low impedance 8 ohm or
16 ohm loudspeakers must be connected to amplifiers with a
suitable low impedance output. When selecting the cable size
consideration must be given to the current that each unit
draws, the number of loudspeakers on the line and the length
of the cable runs.
