39、ical apparatus for use in potentially explosive atmospheres in which a) a protective gas maintained at a pressure above that of the external atmosphere is used to guard against the formation of an explosive gas atmosphere within enclosures which do not contain an internal source of release of flamma
40、ble gas or vapour and, where necessary; b) a protective gas is provided in sufficient quantity to ensure that the resultant mixture concentration around the electrical parts is maintained at a value outside the explosive limit appropriate to the particular conditions of use. The protective gas is su
41、pplied to an enclosure containing one or more internal sources of release in order to guard against the formation of an explosive gas atmosphere. This standard includes requirements for the apparatus and its associated equipment including the inlet and exhaust ducts, and also for the auxiliary contr
42、ol apparatus necessary to ensure that pressurization and/or dilution is established and maintained. 6 EN 60079-2:2007Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, ISO/EXCHANGE CHINA STANDARDS, 29/04/2008 02:13, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSIEXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES Part 2: Equipment protection by pressurized enclosure “p“ 1 Sc
43、ope This part of IEC 60079 contains the specific requirements for the construction and testing of electrical apparatus with pressurized enclosures, of type of protection “p”, intended for use in explosive gas atmospheres. It specifies requirements for pressurized enclosures containing a limited rele
44、ase of a flammable substance. This standard supplements and modifies the general requirements of IEC 60079-0. Where a requirement of this standard conflicts with a requirement of IEC 60079-0, the requirements of this standard takes precedence. This standard does not contain the requirements for: pre
45、ssurized enclosures where the containment system may release a) air with an oxygen content greater than normal, or b) oxygen in combination with inert gas in a proportion greater than 21 %; pressurized rooms or analyser houses; see IEC 60079-13 and IEC 60079-16. NOTE 1 Due to the safety factors inco
46、rporated in the type of protection, the uncertainty of measurement inherent in good quality, regularly calibrated measurement equipment is considered to have no significant detrimental effect and need not be taken into account when making the measurements necessary to verify compliance of the equipm
47、ent with the requirements of this standard. NOTE 2 When the user acts in the role of the manufacturer, it is typically the users responsibility to ensure that all relevant parts of this standard are applied to the manufacturing and testing of the equipment.
