INTRODUCTION
This camera, intended for use in potentially explosive gas and dust
atmospheres, is available in versions suitable for use in the following
gas/dust groups: IIB IIIC.
The Ex enclosure is manufactured from a UV stable glass reinforced polyester
with a rugged thermoplastic Sunshield. GRP and 316 Stainless Steel mounting
brackets, cover screws and fixings are incorporated throughout thus ensuring a
corrosion free product.
An uncertified version is available for use in non-explosive atmospheres.
GENERAL SAFETY MESSAGES AND WARNINGS
All instructions and safety messages in this manual must be followed to allow
safe installation of the device. The device must only be installed and
maintained by correctly trained site personnel/installers. See also certified
annex for special conditions for safe use.
i. To reduce the risk of ignition of hazardous atmospheres and shock, do not
apply power to the device until installation has been completed and the device
is fully sealed and
secured.
ii. To reduce the risk of ignition of hazardous atmospheres and shock, keep
device tightly closed when the circuit is energised.
iii. Before removing the cover for installation or maintenance, ensure that
the power to the device is isolated.
iv. Following installation, test the device to ensure correct operation.
v. Following installation ensure a copy of this manual is made available to
all operating personnel
vi. When installing the device, requirements for selection, installation and
operation should be referred to e.g. IEE Wiring Regulations and the ‘National
Electrical Code’ in
North America. Additional national and/or local requirements may also apply.
vii. Cable termination should be in accordance with the specification applying
to the required application. MEDC recommends that all cables and cores should
be correctly
identified. Please refer to the wiring diagram in this manual (or separate
diagram provided with the unit).
viii. Ensure that only the correct listed or certified cable glands are used
and that the assembly is correctly earthed.
ix. Ensure that only the correct listed or certified stopping plugs are used
to blank off unused gland entry points in accordance with EN/IEC60079-14
clauses 16.3, 16.4 & 16.5 and that the NEMA/IP rating of the unit is
maintained.
x. MEDC recommend the use of a sealing compound such as HYLOMAR PL32 on the
threads of all glands and stopping plugs and/or a suitable sealing washer in
order to
maintain the IP rating of the unit.
xi. The internal earth terminal must be used for protective earthing when
required. Do not remove the internal ground strap from the earth terminal
where fitted.
xii. For units with metric entries; gland continuity and earthing may be
achieved with an optional external earth plate. If the external plate is
fitted, a thread sealing
compound such as HYLOMAR PL32 must be employed to maintain the IP rating of
the unit.
xiii. When installing the device, MEDC recommends the use of stainless-steel
fasteners. Ensure that all nuts, bolts and fixings are secure.
xiv. The unit should never be positioned with the sunshield horizontal facing
down.
xv. The purchaser should make the manufacturer aware of any external effects
or Aggressive substances that the equipment may be exposed to.
GENERAL ARRANGEMENT
The XFG1 is supplied with a tilt-swivel bracket (fig.1), which is fitted as standard to the camera. Also, the wall mounting bracket, (fig.2) supplied separately in the packaging, is to be installed in the desired location before attaching the XFG1 & tilt-swivel assembly.
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
Electrical installation and servicing should only be carried out by qualified
service personnel and in accordance with all local/national codes of practice
and standards e.g. EN 60079- 14:2014 and IEC 60079-14:2013.
Due to the large number of possible configurations, this manual only covers
the standard installation of the units.
For detailed connection and configuration of units, the installer should refer
to individual project specific drawings and information.
Units can be supplied, as required, with either AC or DC 24V, or 220VAC
Supply; all ±10% The units should only be powered from the specified voltage,
no allowance is made for varying voltage supply. Units may also work with
Power Over Ethernet (POE) 12V,24v,48v & 56V DC
Warning: irreparable damage to the unit will result from an incorrect power supply voltage For safe access to electrical connections with the camera, refer to ATEX controlled certified ANNEX to this manual.
CERTIFICATION / LABELLING & MARKING
The certifi cation & rating labels are etched on 316 stainless steel and fi
xed to the units using stainless steel rivets. The contents of the label will
be in ENGLISH.
The label shows:
A – Name of Manufacturer
B – Model Type
C – Operating Voltage
D – EX ratings,
E – ATEX Certifi cate & IECEX certifi cate numbers
F – Serial Number,
G – Notifi ed Body Number
ATEX/IECEx Enclosure Label

Note: T class, is dependent on the maximum specified operating temperature = Ambient Temperature range. Marked Ambient range can be any of the following:
-55°C to +40°C, -55°C to +55°C, -55°C to +85°C
INSTALLATION
It is not anticipated that entry into the fl ame proof enclosure will be
required by the user as power and transmission cables are supplied pre-
installed with the unit. However, when opening the unit for any reason, follow
the steps below.
WARNING: DO NOT OPEN WHEN ENERGISED OR WHEN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE IS
PRESENT. CLEAN WITH DAMP CLOTH
- Cable termination should be in accordance with specifi cations applying to the application.
- MEDC recommend that all cables and cores should be fully identifi ed.
- Ensure that only the correct certifi ed glands are used, and that the assembly is shrouded and correctly earthed
- Ensure there is not too much slack of cable cores within the unit, due to space limitations.
- Ensure that only the correct certifi ed stopping plugs are used to blank any unused gland entry points. We recommend the use of ‘HYLOMAR PL32 COMPOUND’ on the threads of stopping plugs in order to maintain the IP66/67 rating of the unit.
- Unscrew the grub screw on the Lens cover assembly one full turn (2.0mm A/F hexagon key required).
- Unscrew and remove the cover. Once the cover has been removed, slide the camera from the enclosure.
- To replace the cover, use the same procedure as above but in reverse manner, ensuring the cover is screwed tightly. There should be a maximum gap of 0.2mm between the faces of the enclosure and cover to ensure 0-ring compression.
Warning: this cover must not be removed under any circumstances, until at least 5 minutes after the power source is disconnected.
MAINTENANCE
Due to the rugged construction of the unit, little or no maintenance should be
required during the working life of the unit. GRP will resist attack by most
acids, alkalis and chemicals and is as resistant to concentrated acids and
alkalis as most metal products. However, if abnormal and/or persistent unusual
environment conditions occur due to plant damage or accident etc, then a
visual inspection is recommended. If the unit requires cleaning, then only
clean with a damp cloth to avoid electro-static charge build up. Recommended
inspection interval: 6 Months to ensure trouble free operation and extended
product life. It is recommended that, where the unit is exposed to regularly
extreme weather conditions, the ‘O’ ring weather seal in the removable window
is replaced every fi ve years. If the cover/lens assembly grease needs to be
re-applied, a PFPE (Perfl uoropolyether) based grease such as Krytox GPL203 by
DuPont or Perfl uorolube 22/6 by Performance Fluids Ltd should be used, to
prevent damage to the O-ring.
Fixings and fastenings should be checked for tightness and integrity as part
of the 6 monthly inspection intervals. All cable entries and cables should be
checked for integrity at these points also.
Extreme and harsh environments may require more frequent inspection and
maintenance checks. Therefore, the end user or installer shall ensure that
this equipment is protected against external infl uences which could adversely
affect the explosion protection or contact the manufacturer if in doubt of the
suitability of this equipment in the environment in which it is to be
installed.
INSPECTON SUMMARY
At every Inspection interval, carry out the following:
- Clean the exterior of the unit.
- Check the ‘O’ ring weather seals and replace if necessary.
- Check the integrity of all cable entries and cables.
- Check condition & tightness o all fasteners on the unit and any mounting points.
- Use only Eaton approved spare parts.
