26、E) 4Introduction An explosive atmosphere surrounding an enclosure can penetrate it mainly due to the influence of three mechanisms: ventilation; equalisation of pressure differences between the inside and outside (breathing); diffusion. If such an enclosure is effectively sealed, but not necessarily
27、 gas-tight, it can be assumed that ventilation and diffusion will not cause a significant short-time exchange of atmosphere. Under these conditions, an exchange of the external and internal atmospheres through the seals will only take place if there is a pressure difference across them. Such pressur
28、e differences may be caused by changes in temperature and will result in the enclosure “breathing“ but will not cause a significant flow of explosive atmosphere into or through the enclosure. Experience has shown that even simple enclosures can prevent a surrounding explosive atmosphere from reachin
29、g ignition sources inside them. Flow restricting enclosures are such simple enclosures, which will prevent, with adequate probability, the atmosphere inside the enclosures becoming explosive if the atmosphere outside the enclosure becomes explosive rarely and for short durations only. For this reaso
30、n their use is restricted to the fulfilment of category 3 requirements. This document is a type B standard as described in EN 1070.Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, na, Sun Oct 09 02:10:53 BST 2005, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSIEN 13463-2:2004 (E) 51 Scope This document specifies the requirements for the constr
31、uction and testing of flow restricting enclosures for non-electrical equipment intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres if the atmosphere outside the enclosure becomes explosive rarely and for short durations only. This document supplements the requirements in EN 13463-1 the contents of
32、 which apply in full to equipment constructed in accordance with this document. Equipment complying with this standard meets the requirements of Group II Category 3 equipment. The type of ignition protection described in this standard is unsuitable for use in combination with another type of protect
33、ion to produce equipment of any other category than category 3. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced documen
34、t (including any amendments) applies. EN 13463-1:2001, Non-electrical equipment for potentially explosive atmospheres Part 1: Basic method and requirements.3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN 13463-1:2001 and the following apply. protectio
35、n by flow restricting enclosuretype of ignition protection which, by means of an enclosure, reduces the probability of ingress of a surrounding explosive atmosphere into the enclosure to an acceptably low level so that the concentration inside the enclosure is below the lower explosive limit 4 Gener
36、al 4.1 General requirements The requirements of this document apply in addition to the requirements of EN 13463-1. Flow restricting enclosures used to protect Group II Category 3 equipment may contain ignition sources which occur during normal operation provided the enclosure itself is not an igniti
37、on source. The type of protection shall not be used if the ignition source is an open flame. 4.2 Determination of suitability The equipment manufacturers ignition hazard assessment required by EN 13463-1 shall have determined that protection by flow restricting enclosure is appropriate to achieve th
38、e level of protection required by Group II Category 3 equipment. NOTE Equipment manufacturer means the manufacturer who applies flow restricting enclosures to protect the equipment that may contain ignitions sources under normal operation. It is not the manufacturer of the empty enclosure. Licensed

40、nd other ignition sources in normal operation but with a limitation in dissipated power such that the averaged air temperature within the enclosure does not exceed the external ambient temperature by more than 10 K. However the internal air temperature may exceed the external ambient temperature by
41、up to 20 K if the rate of temperature decay, when the apparatus is de-energized, is limited to not more than 10 K/h; The effects of changes in weather conditions e.g. the suns direct heating on the exterior of the enclosure or rapid cooling by rain showers shall be taken into account. These can caus
42、e a larger temperature change than the 10 K allowed. b) Where an enclosure is provided with “anti-frost“ or “anti-condensation“ heating, the 10 K and 20 K temperature rise in a) may apply above the internal non-operating temperature with the heating in operation, provided that the source of energy f
43、or the heating is independent of the main source of power for the enclosure. It is essential that simultaneous loss of heating and removal of functional power is unlikely. If the “anti-frost“ or “anti-condensation“ heating raises the internal temperature more than 10 K (or 20 K with not more than 10
44、 K/h decay) above the external ambient, the instructions supplied with the equipment shall require that the operator of the equipment is satisfied that the equipment is free of hazardous atmosphere before the heating is reapplied following a shut-down. NOTE The use of flow restricting enclosure to p
45、rotect against ignition from sparks and other permanent ignition sources is not allowed where, because of high internal temperatures, there is an increased risk of drawing the hazardous atmosphere into the enclosure when the apparatus is de-energised. Protection by flow restricting enclosure shall n
46、ot be used in conjunction with any other type of ignition protection listed in EN 13463-1. Flow restricting enclosures are not suitable for equipment operated on a short time duty cycle because of the increased probability that the equipment might be de-energised when a flammable gas or vapour surro
47、unds the enclosure. 5.2 Test requirements Flow restricting enclosures shall comply with Clause 6. Any gasket or special part necessary to comply with the criteria shall be supplied with the enclosure and shall be subjected to the pre-conditioning described in 6.1 before subjected to the test specifi
48、ed in 6.2. 5.3 Enclosures without the provision for carrying out checks after installation Flow restricting enclosures without the provision for carrying out checks after installation or maintenance shall be type tested including the entries for pipes, shafts etc. These enclosures shall meet the req
49、uirements of 6.2.2. The installation instruction provided with the enclosure shall contain information on proper sealing of the entries. 5.4 Enclosures with provisions for carrying out checks after installation Provisions shall be made for carrying out checks to ensure that the requirements for flow restricting enclosures are complied with after installation or after maintenance. The enclosures shall meet the requirements of 6.2.1. The installation instruction provided with the enclosure shall contain information on proper checking of the en
