23、s UL Standard is based on IEC Publication 60079-31: second edition Explosive Atmospheres Part 31: Equipment Dust Ignition Protection by Enclosure “t”. IEC publication 60079-31 is copyrighted by the IEC. Efforts have been made to synchronize the UL edition number with that of the corresponding IEC st

24、andard with which this standard is harmonized. As a result, one or more UL edition numbers have been skipped to match that of the IEC edition number. Note Although the intended primary application of this Standard is stated in its Scope, it is important to note that it remains the responsibility of

25、the users of the Standard to judge its suitability for their particular purpose. UL Effective Date The effective date for UL 60079-31 (IEC 60079-31:2013), Second edition is June 12, 2015.

27、Committee 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

28、 accordance 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 a

29、ll interested 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

30、responsible 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 dive

31、rgence 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 ma

32、rks 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

33、 and 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 Publ

34、ication 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 Publ

35、ication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. International Standard IEC 60079-31 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 31: Equipment for explosive atmospheres. This second edition cancels and replaces the rst edition published in 2008. This edition constitutes a technical revision. JUNE 12, 2015 ANSI/ISA 60079-31 UL 60079-31 7
