Product Description

2.3 Function of the pressurized enclosure system

Purpose

The pressurized enclosure prevents an explosive atmosphere being created inside the
enclosure. To this purpose, the gas analyzer enclosure is filled with a protective gas. Apart
from that, it also ensures the gas pressure inside the gas analyzer enclosure is higher than
the ambient air pressure.

Safety functions

● The enclosure is pre-purged automatically before start-up. The mains supply for the gas
analyzer is first switched on afterwards.

● The mains supply of the gas analyzer is switched off automatically should the pressur­ized enclosure not be in the correct operating state (malfunction).

Functionality during operation

The pressurized enclosure system functions in “leakage compensation” operating mode: A
certain protective gas pressure is created in the gas analyzer enclosure after pre-purging
has completed. If the protective gas pressure drops below the minimum pressure set, pro­tective gas feed is activated until the rated pressure is reached again.

On the Enclosure GMS815P-PS-2G, a certain amount of protective gas leaks out of the gas
analyzer enclosure through the protective gas outlet. This means the protective gas feed is
activated often to restore the pressure. This creates a more or less permanent protective
gas flow with the required flowrate.

▸

Consider the weight of the enclosure before lifting (→ p. 33, §6.3).

▸

Call in further personnel as assistants as required.

CAUTION: Risk of injuries

There is a risk of injuries should the enclosure drop down due to the weight of
the device and through hard, protruding enclosure parts.

During transport and assembly:

▸

Wear safety shoes. Use non-slip gloves.

▸

Handle the device carefully and safely. Secure during transport. Avoid falls
and collisions.

▸

Call in further personnel as assistants as required.

NOTICE: Risk of damage

▸

NOTICE: Risk through transport safety devices

▸

Remove transport safety devices before start-up (→ p. 15, §3.2.3).

Otherwise electronic components can overheat during operation.

3.1.2 Protection against dangerous sample gases

If the sample gas can be dangerous to health, combustible and/or corrosive:

▸

Make sure no dangerous situations can arise should a gas leak occur.

▸

Check

– whether a gas detector must be installed at the installation location

– whether the enclosure must be purged continuously with a neutral gas during oper-

ation (with monitoring the discharged purge gas as required).

Install appropriate additional devices as necessary.

▸

Check gas paths regularly for leak tightness.

3.2 Assembly

3.2.1 Ensuring ambient conditions

Quiet running

▸

Protect the device against heavy jolts and vibrations (limit values → p. 33, §6.4).

Temperature

▸

Avoid enclosure exposure to direct sunlight.

▸

Maintain the allowable ambient temperature during operation (→ p. 33, § 6.4).

Humidity

▸

Choose a dry installation location free from frost.

▸

Prevent moisture condensation – inside the device as well.

▸

Maintain the allowable relative air humidity (→ p. 33, §6.4).

Corrosive atmospheres

When the atmosphere at the installation location can contain corrosive gases:

▸

Install the Enclosure GMS815P-PS-2G/-3G in an outer housing (e.g. closed cabinet).
Purge the outer housing with a protective gas.

3.2.2 Fitting the enclosure

▸

Secure the enclosure on a structure that can safely carry the weight of the enclosure.

▸

Fit the enclosure so that the underside of the gas analyzer enclosure is more or less
horizontal (allowable offset → p. 33, §6.4).

● Dimensions → p. 32, §6.1

● Weight → p. 33, §6.3

3.2.3 Removing transport safety devices

1 Open the upper section of the gas analyzer enclosure (→ p. 22, §3.8.1).

2 Take the foam inserts out of the enclosure.

▸

3.3 Gas connections

3.3.1 Feeding protective gas

The pressurized enclosure system requires a permanent supply of a protective gas.

▸

Feed the protective gas via the protective gas connection (→ p. 11, Fig. 1).

▸

Type and feed parameters of the protective gas → p. 35, §6.8.1

3.3.2 Discharging protective gas

▸

Make sure the protective gas can flow out of the protective gas outlet without opposing
pressure → p. 11, Fig. 1.

▸

Only allow the protective gas to escape into the surrounding area when it is ensured
that the escaping protective gas does not cause

– a suffocation risk for persons

– a poisoning risk when the internal sample gas path has a leak.

CAUTION: Risk of suffocation

Inert gas escapes permanently out of the protective gas outlet (gas free of oxy­gen). Considerably more inert gas escapes during pre-purging. There is a risk
of suffocation for people in the area when inert gas enriches the surrounding
air.

▸

If the protective gas can cause a risk of suffocation: Discharge the escap­ing protective gas at a safe location.

Installation

WARNING: Hazard through an internal gas leak

If the internal sample gas path has a leak, the protective gas being discharged
contains an unknown concentration of sample gas.

▸

If the sample gas can be dangerous (e.g. dangerous to health or combusti­ble): Discharge the escaping protective gas at a safe location.

3.9.3 Installation information for intrinsically safe signal connections

Cable installation

▸

Connect each signal cable for intrinsically safe signal connections to one built-in addi­tional module (→ p. 24, Fig. 5).

▸

Install the signal cables in compliance with EN 60079-11 (“Explosive Atmospheres ­Part 11: Equipment protection by intrinsic safety “i””).

▸

Maintain electronic limit values (→ p. 25, §3.9.4).

▸

Install all components of a signal circuit intrinsically safe.

WARNING: Risk of explosions

Intrinsically safe installations must maintain a certain clearance from other
electrical equipment (specifications see EN 60079-11).

▸

Lay intrinsically safe signal cables so that the required safety distance to
equipment not intrinsically safe is ensured everywhere.

3.9.4 Electronic alarm settings for intrinsically safe signal connections

Intrinsic safety of the connected intrinsically safe signal circuit is only ensured when the
power circuit, including cables, maintains the limit values specified below.

CAUTION: Lower limit values could possibly be applicable

Lower limit values could be applicable for the individual application case. The
composition of the explosive atmosphere is decisive here.

▸

Determine the highest allowable limit values for the individual application
case using the European standard EN 60079-0 “Explosive atmospheres.
Equipment. General requirements”.

▸

If this results in limitations: Note these limitations (e.g. in this document)
and consider during installation.

The Zener barriers used for analog outputs each have 2 channels. One chan­nel is normally used for each analog output. In this case, the analog outputs of
a single Zener barrier have a common negative pole (integrated in the Zener
barrier) which means they are not separated potential-free from each other.
