18、SSION FROM UL Preface (UL) This UL Standard is based on IEC Publication 60079-6: fourth edition Explosive atmospheres Part 6: Equipment protection by liquid immersion o . IEC publication 60079-6 is copyrighted by the IEC. The text, gures and tables of IEC Publication Explosive atmospheres Part 6: Eq

19、uipment protection by liquid immersion o , IEC 60079-6, copyright February 2015 are used in this Standard with the consent of the IEC and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). The IEC copyrighted material has been reproduced with permission from ANSI. ANSI should be contacted regarding t

20、he reproduction of any portion of the IEC material. The IEC Foreword and Introduction are not a part of the requirements of this Standard but are included for information purposes only.

23、ittee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and nongovernmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in acc

24、ordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all i

25、nterested IEC National Committees. 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held resp

26、onsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergen

27、ce between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certication bodies provide conformity assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks

28、of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any services carried out by independent certication bodies. 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and

29、 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publicat

30、ion or any other IEC Publications. 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is indispensable for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publicat

31、ion may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. International Standard IEC 60079-6 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 31: Equipment for explosive atmospheres. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third editio

32、n, published in 2007. This edition constitutes a technical revision. The signicant changes with respect to the previous edition are listed below: APRIL 29, 2016 UL 60079-6 7UL COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL NOT AUTHORIZED FOR FURTHER REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL Edition 4 represents
