2) O-ring Seal Material:
If the equipment is likely to come into contact with aggressive substances, then it is the responsibility of the user to take
suitable precautions that prevent it from being adversely affected, thus ensuring that the type of protection provided by the
equipment is not compromised. Aggressive substances: e.g. acidic liquids or gases that may attack metals, or solvents that
may affect polymeric materials. Suitable precautions:
from the material's data sheets that it is resistant to specific chemicals.
Service life – Contact mating life is in excess of 500 cycles. Bore and spigot flamepaths between plug and receptacle are
outlined in these assembly instructions. Dimensions should be checked periodically, as determined by equipment owner's
maintenance schedule, for similar devices. If dimensions are found out of tolerance, product should be replaced. Product is
not serviceable, by manufacturer, or end-user.
Product should be kept within original packaging until time of installation. Storage temperature should be maintained
between +5-25°C, at a humidity below 70%, and away from direct sources of heat. Under these conditions, product has a
shelf life of 48 months from date of manufacture. Epoxies must be stored at 20-25°C, and have a shelf-life marked on the
epoxy packaging.
Product that has been determined to have reached end-of-life, can be removed from equipment and disassembled for
recycling. Components that are not accepted by recycler, are safe to be disposed of with other commercial waste. This
includes any two part epoxies, supplied with the product, as long as they are mixed per instructions, and fully cured.
SPECIAL CONDITIONS FOR SAFE USE/CONDITIONS OF CERTIFICATION
The following must be adhered to in full for safety and as to not invalidate product certification.
When a Connector half fitted with contact pins is not connected to an associated Plug or Receptacle, it shall not be
energized, as per EN 60079-0:2006, clause 20.2.
When a Connector half fitted with contact sleeves is not connected to an associated Plug or Receptacle, it shall not be
re-energized unless it is fitted with an explosion-proof-blanking cap.
Plugs and receptacles shall only be used with blanking caps or mating Connector halves certified which are under the
same ATEX/IECEx certificates.
This connector does not incorporate an internal or external earth facility; it is therefore the responsibility of the
user/installer to provide adequate earth continuity using the guidance given in the manufacturer's installation
instructions.
The user installed conductors fitted to the panel mount receptacles shall be suitable for a continuous operating
temperature of at least 84°C when rated for a maximum ambient of 40°C and at least 99°C when rated for a maximum
ambient of 55°C.
The user installed conductors fitted to the panel mount receptacles are to be insulated between connection to the
receptacle contacts and associated terminals within associated enclosures to which they are fitted.
