Description
Guardmaster Ex Range
The Guardmaster Ex range of safety switches are specifically
designed for potentially explosive atmospheres. They retain the safety
features and operating principles of the conventional Guardmaster
switches. They incorporate a sealed flameproof contact block, making
them suitable for use in European Zone 1 and Zone 2 environments. In
the US and Canada, these products can be used in areas classified as
Class 1, Division 2 in Groups A (acetylene), B (hydrogen), C (ethylene)
and D (propane). All the Guardmaster Ex switches conform to the
exacting standards required by the European harmonized standards.
These switches carry the classification EExd IIC T6 Baseefa.
EEx equipment conforms to types of protection standardised by
CENELEC (European standards), EN50014 and EN50018
respectively and BS5501 parts 1-V.
The d suffix indicates that the contact block in the switch is a
flameproof enclosure and is designed to ensure that if an internal
explosion occurs it will be contained with the enclosure. The
designation II indicates use in surface industries and c refers to the
group of gases for which the switches are suitable. The designation T
represents the surface temperature classification of the switch. These
switches have been tested with an ambient temperature of 60°C as
opposed to the normal test limit of only 40°C, allowing them to be
used in gases having a low flash point.
It should be noted that these groups refer to the explosion-proof
qualities of the switches and not corrosion-resistance characteristics.
Special precautions may be required to protect the vulnerable parts
such as PVC-covered cables against attack by certain corrosive
elements and physical damage.
