Areas. When designing systems for installation outside the
UK, the local Code of Practice should be consulted.
1) The certification marking is as follows:

WARNING:
TO AVOID A POSSIBLE ELECTROSTATIC
CHARGE ONLY CLEAN WITH A DAMP CLOTH
IS-L101L Beacon
II 1G
2813
SIRA 04ATEX2302X
Year / Serial No. 09 / 1000001
IECEx SIR 04.0039X
Ui = 28V Ii = 660mA Pi = 1.2W
Ci = 0 Li = 0
Ex ia IIC T4 Ga (-40ºC <=Ta<= +60°C)
2) The equipment may be used in zones 0, 1 and 2
with flammable gases and vapours with apparatus
groups IIA, IIB & IIC and with temperature classes
T1, T2, T3 and T4.
3) The equipment is only certified for use in ambient
temperatures in the range -40
o
C to +60
o
C and
should not be used outside this range.
4) The certificate number has an ‘X’ suffix, which
indicates that the certificate contains one of more
special conditions for safe use. Those installing or
inspecting the equipment should refer to this section
of the certificate.
5) The equipment has not been assessed as a safety-
related device (as referred to by Directive 94/9/EC
Annex II, clause 1.5).
6) Installation of this equipment shall be carried out by
suitably-trained personnel in accordance with the
applicable code of practice.
7) Repair of this equipment shall only be carried out by
the manufacturer or in accordance with the
applicable code of practice.
8) The certification of this equipment relies on the
following materials used in its construction:
Enclosure:
ABS Plastic
Lens:
Polycarbonate
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 is not compromised.
“Aggressive substances” - e.g. acidic liquids or
gases that may attack metals, or solvents that may
affect polymeric materials.
“Suitable precautions” - e.g. regular checks as part
of routine inspections or establishing from the
material’s data sheet that it is resistant to specific
chemicals.
SPECIAL CONDITIONS FOR SAFE USE (as stated on the
IS-L101L EC Type Examination Certificate SIRA
04ATEX2302X)
The enclosure is non-conducting and may generate an
ignition-capable level of electrosatic charges under certain
extreme conditions. The user should ensure that the
equipment is not installed in a location where it may be
subjected to external conditions that might cause a build-
up of electrostatic charges on non-conducting surfaces,
additionally, cleaning of the equipment should be done
only with a damp cloth.
The equipment has an ingress protection rating of IP 66.
However, if it has been supplied without cable entry devices,
then the user shall ensure that the devices that are fitted will
provide an ingress protection that is appropriate to the
environment in which it is installed i.e. IP20 or better. If only
one of the two cable entries are used, then the unused entry
shall be fitted with a blanking device that ensures ingress
protection appropriate to the environment in which it is
installed i.e. IP20 or better.
SPECIAL CONDITIONS FOR SAFE USE (as stated on the
IS-A105N sounder EC Type Examination Certificate SIRA
04ATEX2301X)
The equipment shall only be supplied via Terminals + w.r.t.
Terminals - from a barrier having a maximum open circuit
voltage Uo that is < 28 V and a maximum short circuit current
Io that is < 93 mA, where Io is resistively limited. The barrier
shall be ATEX certified by a notified body.
The total capacitance connected to ter wrt – (i.e. the
capacitance of the cable plus any other capacitance) shall
not exceed 83nF.
4.2 Zones, Gas Groups and T Rating
The IS-L101L beacon has been certified Ex ia IIC T4 Ga.
When connected to an approved system it may be installed
in:
Zone 0
explosive gas air mixture
continuously present.
Zone 1
explosive gas air mixture likely to occur in
normal operation.
Zone 2
explosive gas air mixture not likely to occur,
and if it does, it will only exist for a short time.
Be used with gases in groups:
Group
A
propane
Group
B
ethylene
Group
C
hydrogen
Having a temperature classification of:
T1
450ºC
T2
300ºC
T3
200ºC
T4
135ºC
4.3 Ter and - power supply
Power is supplied to the beacon via ter and - which
have maximum input safety parameters of:
Ui
=
28V
Ii
=
660mA
Pi
=
1.2W
Ci = 0
Li = 0
IS-L101L beacons may be powered from ATEX certified
Zener barriers or galvanic isolators certified by an EC
Approved Body with output parameter equal to or less than
28V and 1.2W.
Up to three IS-L101L-IS beacons can be connected in
parallel and be powered from a common barrier or isolator.
Parallel connection of beacons will significantly reduce the
