The ISA Standards and Practices Department is aware of the growing need for attention to the metric system of units in general, and the International System of Units (SI) in particular, in the preparation of instrumentation standards. The Departme

7、nt is further aware of the benefits to USA users of ISA standards of incorporating suitable references to the SI (and the metric system) in their business and professional dealings with other countries. Toward this end, this Department will endeavor to introduce SI-acceptable metric units in all new

8、 and revised standards, recommended practices, and technical reports to the greatest extent possible.

9、6 (R2015) zone 22 with conductive dust. Dust-protected enclosures, IP5X, shall be applied for use in: zone 22 with non-conductive dust. At present, there are no additional requirements for practice A to those given in IEC 61241-0 and in this standard. 6.2 Joints 6.2.1 General All joints in the struc

10、ture of the enclosure between surfaces, whether permanently closed or designed to be opened from time to time, shall fit closely together within the tolerances specified in the documentation. They shall be effectively sealed against the ingress of dust and shall comply with the following particular

11、requirements: The length of thread for all screw joints employing parallel threads shall be not less than five threads. Hinges shall be clear of joints and shall not be used as a means of obtaining a seal unless they are provided with facilities for positive location and correct operation is assured

12、; and it is not possible for damage to occur to either the hinge or enclosure during normal operation and use; and they are not manufactured from materials that are subject to wear that would affect the correct operation; and correct compression of the gasket is achieved without causing undue moveme

13、nt, stress or distortion to the gasket. Where necessary a suitable register shall be provided for covers and the like to ensure correct replacement. 6.2.2 Gaskets and seals Gaskets under compression between joint surfaces may be used to ensure the effectiveness of the enclosure sealing. All gaskets

14、shall be of one-piece continuous construction, i.e. with an uninterrupted periphery. Gaskets, whether of the loose or secured variety, shall be of a form that will provide and maintain in service a dust-excluding seal between the joint surfaces of the enclosure. NOTE Unless all gaskets are either ce

15、mented or moulded into one face of the jointed surface, the design of the enclosure should be such that the inspection of the assembly to determine whether gas kets have been fitted correctly can be made without disturbing the enclosure. A gasket may be cemented to one face only of the joint surface

16、. Gasketed joints shall not be supplemented by the application of a sealant material except on one face only of the joint surfaces. Gaskets shall be of material that is not subject to appreciable ageing or to plastic flow betwee n the envisaged maintenance periods as determined by the tests in 8.1 t

37、o be encountered (such as area classification and conductivity of dust) two levels of dust exclusion efficiency have been adopted: “dust-tight” and “dust-protected” enclosures. NOTE For the required degree of dust exclusion efficiency, see IEC 61241-14. In making an assessment for the acceptance of

38、the apparatus following the tests, the effect of the presence of a combustible dust shall be taken into consideration. The precautions that shall be taken where a combustible dust is used for the tests is left to the discretion of the testing authority or others concerned. 8.2.1.2 Dust-tight apparat

39、us for practice A The apparatus shall be subjected to the thermal endurance to heat, thermal endurance to cold, and mechanical tests of ANSI/ISA-61241-0. The apparatus shall then be subjected to the pressure test of 8.2.3. EnclosuresFinally, the apparatus, including rotating machines, shall satisfy

40、the requirements for IP6X, as specified in IEC 60529, or IEC 60034-5 as applicable. The apparatus shall be considered as belonging to “Category 1 enclosure” as specified in IEC 60529. - 21 - ANSI/ISA-61241-1 (12.10.03)-2006 (R2015) 8.2.1.3 Dust-protected apparatus for practice A The apparatus shall

41、be subjected to the thermal endurance to heat, thermal endurance to cold, and mechanical tests of ANSI/ISA-61241-0. The apparatus shall then be subjected to the pressure test of 8.2.3. All enclosuresFinally, the apparatus, including rotating machines, shall satisfy the test and acceptance requiremen

42、ts of IP5X, as specified in IEC 60529 or IEC 60034-5 as applicable. For the purposes of acceptance criteria in accordance with IEC 60034-5, all dusts shall be considered to be conductive and therefore IP5X shall be assessed against the acceptance criteria of IP6X. The apparatus shall be considered a

43、s belonging to “Category 1 enclosure” as specified in IEC 60529. 8.2.1.4 Dust-tight apparatus for practice B 8.2.1.4.1 Heat cycling test a) The apparatus shall be mounted in a test chamber of sufficient size to permit free circulation of the dust-air mixture around the sample during the test. A mixt

44、ure of suitable dust and air shall be circulated by auxiliary equipment and introduced continuously into the test chamber during the entire test period. The particle size of the dust shall be such that it passes through a No. 100 ASTM sieve (approximately 0,15 mm mesh width) with approximately 22 %

45、passing through a No. 200 ASTM sieve (approximately 0,075 mm mesh width). b) For the test specified above, the apparatus shall be operated at rated load until maximum temperatures are reached and then disconnected from the supply until it has cooled to approximately room temperature. The number of c

46、ycles of heating and cooling shall be at least six and shall last for a minimum of 30 h. NOTE 1 The maximum temperature under load may be obtained by other means than running at rated load. For an enclosure such as a junction box without any appreciable heating effect (e.g. a switch), the effect of

47、changes in barometric pressure may be simulated to produce the desired “breathing” effect. NOTE 2 Heating the chamber to 40 C and maintaining this temperature for approximately 1 h and subsequently cooling the chamber to 20 C and maintaining this temperature for 1 h has been found to be a satisfacto

48、ry method for simulating changes in barometric pressure. When the required number of heating and cooling cycles has been completed, the equipment for producing the dust-air atmosphere shall be shut off and the accumulated dust shall be removed from the exterior surfaces of the enclosures by gently b

49、rushing, wiping or shaking, with care being taken to avoid the introduction of additional dust into the enclosures. Under no circumstances shall the dust be removed by an air blast or by vacuum cleaning. The enclosure shall then be opened and carefully examined for the degree of dust penetration if any. 8.2.1.4.2 Acceptance criteria No visible dust shall have entered the enclosure. Dust in joints shall not be considered a failure. ANSI/ISA-61241-1 (12.10.03)-2006 (R2015)- 22 - 8.2.1.5 Dust protected apparatus for practice B 8.2.1.5.1 Heat
