Defining the Need

The need to place general-purpose equipment in hazardous
(classified) locations is not new, yet in the last three decades
the need has intensified dramatically. This is primarily due to
the following facts:
Process control, measuring and recording equipment that
was once primarily pneumatic is now primarily generalpurpose electronic equipment.
Motors and switchgears now use electronic accessories
to satisfy the needs for position, speed or process control
and energy efficiency, which often renders the equipment
unsuitable for use in hazardous locations.
The alternative is purge and pressurization.

As you learn more about purge and pressurization, it will
become apparent that this technology is exactly what you
require. It will then become obvious that this technology
offers the safest and most economical means of installing
electrical equipment in a hazardous location. In addition, this
technology will undoubtedly impress you as the only definitive
way to enhance your equipment's performance and access,
while increasing the life expectancy of delicate instruments.
Finally, you'll learn the most important point of all:
The answer to your need is Pepperl+Fuchs.
Newly developed equipment, such as robotic manipulators,

CNCs, batch weigh/count and filling systems, analyzers,
programmable controllers and CRT work stations are
rapidly becoming more prevalent in the industrial work
environment.
While the demand for these new devices continues to
grow, most of them cannot be economically installed in a
hazardous location by using explosionproof enclosures
or intrinsic safety barriers, alone. Most modern electronic
equipment is expensive and delicate. For this reason, it
requires environmental protection that cannot be provided
by explosionproof enclosures or intrinsic safety barriers.
Therefore, the need for an alternative to explosionproof
enclosures and intrinsic safety barriers has become extremely
critical.
A Pepperl+Fuchs Rapid ExchangeTM Purging System and

several accessories make this enclosure acceptable for Class I,
Group C & D, Division 2 hazardous locations.
Purge/Pressurization Systems Technology Review
Introduction
Examining the Solutions

Explosionproof Enclosures
Intent
These enclosures are designed to contain an explosion if an
electrical device ignites flammable substances within the enclosure,
thus preventing ignition of the surrounding atmosphere. These
enclosures are commonly used for circuit breakers, mechanical
switchgears and high-powered equipment. The failure to properly
tighten all bolts and screw covers on these enclosures is the
greatest problem facing end users.
Advantages
Explosion Containment
Requires Low Maintenance
High-Powered Equipment
No Electronics
No Moving Parts
Disadvantages

Causes Harmful Heat Build up
Excessive Weight
Intrinsic Safety Barriers
Intent
Advantages
These devices are designed to limit the current and voltage

conducted through a device's power or signal wiring. This
limitation prevents shorting and arcing of the wires or device,
thus preventing ignition of the surrounding atmosphere.
They are commonly used for protection of instruments that
operate at extremely low power levels and are suitable for
exposure to the environment.

Pepperl+Fuchs
Intent
Pepperl+Fuchs products are designed to supply one or
more protected enclosures with clean instrument air or inert
gas. This process removes flammable gases or prevents
the accumulation of ignitable dusts within the protected
enclosure(s). This method of protection is not limited by the
quantity, configuration, power requirements, or location of
the protected equipment. These systems are commonly
used for all applications involving basic electronics, electrical
equipment, motors and switchgear.
In addition, these systems can also meet the demands of

rack mounted instrumentation, video displays, programmable
controllers, computers, printers, recorders, measurement
devices, gas analyzers and calibration equipment.
One of the best benefits is the slow but continuous flow
of protective gas, which can be specifically used to eliminate
problems like heat, moisture, dust and corrosion. And unlike
explosionproof enclosures, failure of a Pepperl+Fuchs Bebco
Enclosure Protection System does not create an immediate
danger.

Defining Hazardous Areas

Class Ratings
Classes are used to define the explosive or ignitable
substances that are present in the atmosphere.
Class I - Flammable gases or liquid vapors
Class II - Ignitable metal, carbon or organic dusts
Class III - Ignitable fibrous materials
Group Ratings
Study guide
Groups are used to define substances by rating their

explosive or ignitable nature, in relation to other known
substances.
TYPICAL CLASS I SUBSTANCES
Group A - Acetylene
Group B - Hydrogen or > 30% Hydrogen by Volume
Group C - Ethyl Ether & Ethylene
Today's modern refineries and manufacturing complexes
often contain both flammable gases and ignitable dusts,
making area classification of Division 1 and Division 2
locations an important but tricky task.
Group D - Acetone, Ammonia, Benzene & Gasoline

TYPICAL CLASS II SUBSTANCES
Group E - Aluminum, Magnesium & Alloys
Group F - Carbon, Coke & Coal
Group G - Flour, Grain, Wood, Plastic & Chemicals
Hazardous Area Definition

Hazardous (classified) locations are those areas in
an industrial complex where the atmosphere contains
flammable concentrations of gases or vapors by leakage,
or ignitable concentrations of dusts or fibers by suspension
or dispersion.
The National Fire Protection Association

The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), formed
in 1896, is a nonprofit organization devoted to fire safety
standards and codes. It currently retains over 40,000
members who work to determine safe practices and establish
standards for all areas of commercial, industrial and residential
construction. They publish many documents including NFPA
70 - better known as the National Electric Code and NFPA
496 - the document that specifies recommended practices
for pressurization and purging.
Area Classification Methods

The NFPA establishes area classifications using three
factors. Identified as Classes, Groups and Divisions, these
factors are combined to define conditions of specific areas.
Important Notes:
Division 1 areas must be surrounded by Division 2 areas.
Pepperl+Fuchs Group
Division Ratings
Divisions are used to define the degree of hazard by
determining the explosive or ignitable substance's
expected concentration in the atmosphere.
Division 1 - Contains substances under

normal conditions
Division 2 - Contains substances under

abnormal conditions
Zone Ratings
Zones are used to define the degree of hazard by
determining the explosive or ignitable substance's
expected concentration in the atmosphere.
Zone 0 - Contains substances under

normal conditions (Continuously)

normal conditions (Intermittently)

Common Questions ?
What is purging?
How can the equipment be accessed?
Purging is the process of supplying enclosures with compressed

air or inert gas at the proper flow and pressure in order to reduce the
hazardous gas inside the enclosure to a safe level. Pressurization
is the process of bringing compressed air or inert gas within an
enclosure to a pressure where there is no ingress of hazardous gasses
or combustible gas. Both purging and pressurization are required in a
Class I, gas atmosphere. Only pressurization is required in a Class II,
dust atmosphere.
Equipment mounted in the protected enclosure can

be accessed if the area is known to be nonhazardous,
or if all power to the protected equipment has been deenergized. In other words, internal equipment should
be treated as if located in an explosionproof enclosure.
However, a cooling period may be required before
accessing hot components, such as transformers
or variable speed drives, which would otherwise be
unacceptable for use in the hazardous location.
What is used to purge/pressurize?
What is the pressure requirement?

Most purging applications require a minimum enclosure pressure
of 0.10 inches (2.5 mm) of water. One psi is equal to 27.7 inches
of water. In some circumstances, a minimum enclosure pressure
of 0.50 inches (12.7 mm) of water is required to protect against
ignitable dust. But in all cases, a higher enclosure pressure
should be maintained to create a reasonable safety factor. In rare
circumstances, enclosure pressures as high as 2.5 inches (63.5 mm)
of water may be required to offset sudden atmospheric pressure
fluctuations, such as those created near missile launching or
off-shore drilling platforms.
Equipment mounted through the surface of a

protected enclosure may require a sealed access door
if the equipment is not suitable for exposure to the
surrounding atmosphere. Advanced pressurization
systems, like Pepperl+Fuchs Bebco Rapid ExchangeTM
Purging Systems can maintain a positive pressure, by
increasing the flow of protective gas while the access
door is open.
Study Guide
The most common and practical protective gas is compressed

instrument quality air that contains no more than trace amounts
of combustible vapor. Inert gases, such as nitrogen or argon are
acceptable. Although they are usually expensive and impractical,
they may be required for some gas analysis applications.
How much purging gas is used?

Average protective gas consumption during pressurization at a 0.10
inch (2.5 mm) enclosure pressure should fall somewhere between 0.1
to 3.5 SCFH per cubic foot (2.83 to 99.11 l/hr) of enclosure volume.
However, use will depend on the protected enclosure's integrity and
normal pressure setting. Use is also dependent on the quantity and
size of covers and doors as well as devices which penetrate the
surface. Advanced forms of protection such as cooling or dilution
may require continuous flow rates of 30 to 100 SCFH (849.38
to 2831.26 l/m). Purging requires a much higher flow rate than
pressurization, but only for a short period of time.
What kinds of enclosures can be purged?

Any enclosure can be purged, but enclosures featuring gasketing
and multiple door fasteners are ideal. Therefore, in the absence
of official construction requirements for purged enclosures,
Pepperl+Fuchs Bebco recommends enclosures which meet or
exceed the National Electrical Manufacturers Association rating
of NEMA 4 or NEMA 12. For more information on this subject,
see page T12.
What kinds of devices can be purged?

Virtually any basic electrical device can be purged, if all "live"
or energized components can be isolated from the surrounding
environment. Devices such as pushbuttons, relays, timers and
programmable controllers only need to be installed in a sealed
enclosure. Motors only require a totally enclosed housing.

In this application, a stainless steel enclosure features an

access door for control adjustments and maintenance,
along with a very unique audible and visual alarm system.

NFPA & ISA Design Standards

Pressurization Standards
Purging and Pressurizing Methods
Committee SP12 of the Instrument Society of America

(ISA) established the first Design Standard in 1966, entitled
"ISA s12.4 - Instrument Purging For Reduction Of Hazardous
Area Classification." In 1967, the NFPA Technical Committee
on Electrical Equipment in Chemical Atmospheres established
recommended practices, entitled "NFPA 496 - Purged and
Pressurized Enclosures for Electrical Equipment." Since
then, the NFPA has expanded their document by adding
recommendations for enclosure ventilation and dilution.
The NFPA and ISA define several techniques for

protecting equipment. Most equipment requires only basic
pressurization in Class II areas or purging in Class I areas.
Ventilation and dilution are advanced protection methods
for heat producing or flammable gas analyzing equipment.
The NFPA document is the American standard for the

design, marking and performance of enclosures and
pressurization systems. The ISA document addresses
construction, installation and testing of protected enclosures
and pressurization systems.
Pressurization "Types"
The NFPA and ISA define "Types" of pressurization based
on the Division rating of a hazardous location and electrical
ratings of the protected equipment. General-purpose and
Division 2 rated electrical equipment require different means
of protection, depending on their location.
Type "X"
Protects general-purpose equipment in Division 1 Areas
This system reduces the classification within protected
enclosures from Division 1 to nonhazardous. It is required to
automatically control electrical power to all protected
equipment.
Purging
Common equipment in Class I Areas
As strictly defined by NFPA 496, this method is a start-up
process of Class I area pressurizing which removes flammable
vapors from a protected enclosure. This is accomplished
by exchanging a known volume of protective gas, while
maintaining a minimum positive enclosure pressure of 0.10
inches (2.5 mm) of water. The 2003 edition of NFPA 496
recommends 4 volume exchanges for all enclosures and 10
volume exchanges for all motors.

Pressurization
Common equipment in Class I & II Areas
This method prevents the entrance of flammable gas or
combustible dust into protected enclosures. In Class II areas,
this is accomplished by manually removing any dust and
then applying a protective gas supply to maintain a positive
enclosure pressure of 0.50 inches (12.7 mm) of water. In
Class I areas, this is accomplished by "purging" as defined
below, and by then maintaining a minimum positive enclosure
pressure of 0.10 inches (2.5 mm) of water. Power can then
be applied to the protected equipment under conditions
established by the Division rating.
Type "Y"
Ventilation
Protects Division 2 rated equipment in Division 1 Areas

enclosures from Division 1 to Division 2. All protected
equipment must be rated for Division 2. Automatic power
control disconnects are not required, but visual and/or audible
alarms must be initiated when there is loss of pressure.
Type "Z"
Hot equipment in Class I & II Areas

This method provides protection as outlined above and
also removes or dissipates heat from electrical devices within
a protected enclosure. This method is commonly used to
cool equipment or reduce enclosure surface temperatures.
Ventilation requires high air flow and is commonly performed
with blowers for high voltage switchgear devices.
Protects general-purpose equipment in Division 2 Areas

enclosures from Division 2 to nonclassified. Automatic power
control disconnects are not required, but visual and/or audible
alarms must be initiated when there is loss of pressure.
Pepperl+Fuchs Group
Dilution
Analytical equipment in Class I Areas
This method provides protection as outlined above and
also continuously removes or dissipates flammable gases
within a protected enclosure. Dilution may require the use of
nitrogen to blanket the enclosure. Otherwise, a higher flow
of instrument air will likely be required.

Pressurization System Designs

Choosing a System
Requirements for Alarms
There are four primary factors that determine which purge

system is appropriate for your application:
Classification of the area.
Ratings of the equipment inside the enclosure.
Enclosure size, position of doors, windows and
any accessories.
Power requirement to the enclosure (Type X systems).
Area Classification
Alarms are connected directly to the enclosure and monitor

the differential air pressure between the enclosure and the
environment outside it. These alarms are activated by the
reduction in flow or pressure within the protective enclosure
and have a direct connection to the enclosure, eliminating
the need for an alarm on the protective gas supply.
The alarm must be located where the operator can
see it easily.
The alarm must take its measurement from the
enclosure only.
Alarms located in the hazardous area must be rated
for the area.
Valves cannot be connected between the alarm and
the enclosure.
Equipment Ratings
The rating on the equipment inside the enclosure becomes
important in evaluating which purge system to use in a
Division 1 area. If the Division 1 area contains at least one
general-purpose component, a Type X system is required.
If all devices in the enclosure are rated for Division 2, then
a Type Y system can be used. Special conditions exist for
enclosures such as gas analyzers and chromatographs that
contain a flammable gas. Refer to NFPA 496 2003 for more
information.
Study Guide
The area classification determines the type of purge system

needed. For Division 1 areas, the equipment inside the
enclosure determines whether a Type X system (equipment
rated for general-purpose) or a Type Y system (equipment
rated for Division 2) can be used.
For Type Y and Z purge systems, audible alarms or visual

indicators must be used to notify operators that pressure
inside the enclosure is below the NFPA minimum.

in the hazardous area, it must be rated for that hazardous
location. As power increases inside the enclosure, high
temperatures become a problem. Refer to NFPA 496 2003

Class I Area Recommendations

If flammable gases are lighter than air, the supply
connection to each enclosure should enter near a bottom
corner and the connection for an optional vent or piping to

opposite top corner.
If flammable gases are heavier than air, connections
should be reversed.

In addition, these Class I area recommendations exceed

the requirements of NFPA 496. They are presented by
Pepperl+Fuchs Bebco as a method to enhance the removal
of flammable gases by the use of gravity.

Indicators, Alarms & Cutoffs

Requirements for Indicators
Requirements for Disconnects
Indicators can be used when there is an alarm for the

protective gas supply and the enclosure is isolated with a
valve immediately adjacent to the enclosure. The valve must
have an appropriate warning label and can be used only for
the enclosure. Refer to NFPA 496 2003, section 4.8.4 for
more information.
The indicator must be located where the operator can
see it easily.
The indicator must show either pressure or flow.
The indicator cannot be installed between the enclosure
and protective gas supply.
No valves shall be connected between the indicator and
the enclosure.
The protective gas supply shall have an alarm located in a
constantly attended area and fulfill requirements in 4.3.2.
The disconnect switch immediately cuts off power to the

enclosure when pressure drops below a safe level. This
switching is required for Type X systems and can also used
in Type Y and Z systems.
There are exceptions to the disconnect rule for Type X
systems, because in some instances, a power loss represents
a greater hazard than operating the system under low pressure.
An alarm is acceptable in those circumstances, but only for
a short time and special requirements may be necessary.
Requirements for disconnect switches:
Must be actuated by either the protective gas flow rate
or the differential pressure inside the enclosure.
Must be approved for its location.
No valves shall be connected between the disconnect
switch and the enclosure.
Shall take its signal from the protected enclosure and
shall not be installed between the enclosure and the
protective gas supply. Refer to NFPA 496, section 4.10.1
for more information.

Enclosure Marking & Wiring

Enclosure Marking Requirements
Sections 4.11 & 6.3 of the 2003 NFPA 496 require markings
on all protected enclosures with a "permanent label," located in
a "prominent location," near all doors and access covers. The
labels must include the following or equivalent statements:
Class I Locations:
" WARNING - PRESSURIZED ENCLOSURE"
"This enclosure shall not be opened unless the area is known to be free
of flammable materials or unless all devices have been de-energized."
Class II Locations:
design guide
" WARNING - PRESSURIZED ENCLOSURE"

"Power shall not be restored after the enclosure has been opened until
combustible dust has been removed and the enclosure repressurized."
Typical Enclosure Wiring Methods

In a general sense, protected enclosures should be wired
similarly to explosionproof enclosures, in accordance with
Article 500 of the National Electric Code - NFPA 70.
Single conductor wiring should be placed in rigid metal
conduit, seal-flex conduit or other mediums approved for use
in the hazardous location surrounding the protected enclosure.
Additionally, NFPA 496 requires the use of approved seals on
all pressurized enclosure conduit wiring entries, in accordance
with NFPA 70. Furthermore, the use of an approved seal is

Enclosure Design Considerations

Protected Enclosures
Adjacent & Internal Enclosures
1. All windows should be shatterproof and sized as small

as possible.
2. All NFPA 496 required markings should be placed on or
near all doors and covers, and should be easily visible.
3. The enclosure should withstand an internal pressure of
five (5) inches of water without sustaining permanent
deformation and resist all corrosive elements in the
surrounding atmosphere.
4. All lightweight objects in the enclosure, such as paper
or insulation, should be firmly secured.
5. The enclosure should be constructed from materials
such as metal or polycarbonate to meet NEMA 4 or 12
performance requirements, but does not require 3rd
party approval.
6. The installation of obstructions or other barriers which block
or impede the flow of protective gas should be avoided.
7. The creation of air pockets or other areas which trap
flammable gases within the enclosure should be avoided.
8. The enclosure should be located in an area where
impact hazards are minimal.
9. A pressure relief device should be used if it is required to
protect the enclosure against pressurization system control
failure or to allow proper purging system operation.
10. If the enclosure is non-metallic and contains equipment
which utilizes or switches power loads greater than
2500 VA, it should be constructed from substantially
non-combustible materials, such as materials designed
to meet or exceed ANSI/UL94 ratings of 94 V-0 or 94 5V.
11. The enclosure should have no surface area that
exceeds 80% of the flammable or ignitable substance's
auto-ignition temperature.
All internal enclosures (within the protected enclosure)

should be protected by one of the following means, if the
free volume of the internal enclosure exceeds 1.22 cubic
inches (20 cm3 ).
a. Internal enclosures should be ventilated on the top and

bottom sides with at least one (1) square inch (6.5 cm3) of
opening for each four hundred (400) cubic inches (6560 cm3)
of volume within the internal protected enclosure, with a
minimum size of one quarter (1/4) inch diameter (6.3 mm); or,
b. Adjacent and internal enclosures should be purged in
series with the protected enclosure or be purged
separately; or,
c. Equipment within adjacent and internal enclosures should
be protected by other means; e.g. explosionproof
enclosures, hermetically sealed housings or intrinsic
safety barriers.
Pressure Relief Devices

1. All pressure relief devices should be designed to minimize
air leakage, unless intended for dilution or ventilation.
2. All pressure relief devices should be constructed from
flame, shatter and ignition proof substances. In addition,
they should be designed to prevent the escape of sparks
and burning materials.
Typical Fastening
and Gasketing Methods

12. If the enclosure is protected by a Type X System and

can be opened without the use of a tool or key, the
door should be equipped with a Division 1 rated power
interlock switch to de-energize all equipment that is not
suitable for Division 1 areas.

manufacturers
utilize clamping
fasteners to meet
TYPE 4 performance
requirements.
Calculation of Enclosure
and Device Volumes
1. The total volume of all pressurized enclosures, devices
and wireways should be considered.
2. All enclosure, device and wireway volumes should be
calculated without consideration of internally consumed
space. Exceptions: motor starters, rotors, field coils, etc.
3. Cubical device volumes should be calculated as follows:
Height x Width x Depth
- in inches 1728 = ft3
- in feet = ft3
4. Cylindrical device volumes may be calculated as follows:

Device Use Considerations

Preface
Protruding Devices
The use of devices that penetrate the surface of a protected
enclosure must be carefully scrutinized. Protruding devices
will likely contain electrical components that could either be
exposed to the hazardous location or be isolated from the
flow of protective gas. Conventional wisdom suggests that a
protruding device should be acceptable if it is (1) explosionproof,
(2) intrinsically safe, (3) proven to emit insufficient energy to
ignite the surrounding atmosphere (applicable for Division 2
locations only), (4) constructed so that all electronics within its
face are suitably sealed from the surrounding environment and
properly ventilated to the protected enclosure, or (5) isolated
from the surrounding atmosphere by a sealed window or access
door that is properly ventilated to the protected enclosure.
Controllers, Indicators & Recorders
application Guide
Device use considerations are based mainly upon common

sense and sound engineering practices because while the NFPA
and ISA have addressed many other purge factors already
discussed, device use is mostly unregulated. Therefore, while
the following considerations are based on applications that
have been installed and proven, many are presented in the
absence of standards. In addition, this section does not address
analytical equipment. Remember, the ultimate responsibility
for installation approval, regardless of current regulations, lies
with the authority having jurisdiction.
Today's panel mounted instrumentation is almost strictly

electronic. The protruding face of these instruments normally
contains LEDs, LCDs and incandescent or florescent lights.
Therefore, it is extremely important to isolate all instrumentation
from the surrounding atmosphere, unless the face is sealed
and all electronics are properly ventilated to the protected
enclosure.

Device Use Considerations

Due to the limitations established above, most instruments
will require isolation through the use of a sealed access door
(see page T5). However, while the instruments are then normally
inaccessible, some end users permit "limited access" while
maintaining a positive pressure, to perform maintenance,
calibration and adjustment. The process of limited access may
be accomplished by using Pepperl+Fuchs Bebco Rapid
ExchangeTM Purging Systems. Special door labeling or
purging system automation may also be required.
NOTE: These designs should be reviewed by all parties,
especially the authority having jurisdiction, prior to engineering
or fabrication commitments.
Pilot Lights
A pilot light is normally unacceptable unless rated for use
in the hazardous location. However, some authorities having
jurisdiction permit the use of LED clusters and VDC bulbs,
after determining they have insufficient power to ignite the
surrounding atmosphere. Other concerns should include
impact resistance and potential power dissipation, unless the
pilot light is protected as noted.
Internal Devices
Relays, timers, counters, power supplies and other internally
mounted electrical equipment should be ventilated or protected
in accordance with the considerations for adjacent and
internal enclosures (see page 12). In addition, no devices
should exceed 80% of the flammable or ignitable substance
auto-ignition temperature, unless (1) it can be shown by testing
that the device will not ignite the surrounding atmosphere,
(2) the device is enclosed in a hermetically sealed chamber,
(3) the protected enclosure is equipped with a temperature
warning nameplate, or (4) the device is separately housed
and pressurized.
Printers
application guide
Peripheral Devices & Instrument Keypads
14
Technically speaking, it is impossible to pressurize many

peripheral devices, even if they are Type 4 rated. First, most
barcoders and wands feature no internal cavity. Secondly, the
membrane assembly of most peripheral keyboards isolates
key contacts from the protected gas. Therefore, all peripheral
devices not suitable for pressurization should be protected
by intrinsic safety barriers. Furthermore, the barriers and
all intrinsically safe wiring should be mechanically isolated
from all other devices and wiring in the protected enclosure.
Most peripheral devices can be easily modified with intrinsic
safety barriers; however, it is very impractical to modify
panel mounted instrument keypads. Accepting this fact,
such instruments should be located behind a sealed access
door that is properly ventilated to the protected enclosure.
NOTE: Some end users allow the use of these devices in Division
2 areas without barriers, assuming the normally low energy
to these devices will not ignite the surrounding atmosphere.
However, the possibility of a ground fault or current overload
will always exist without barrier protection.
Operators
Panel mounted operators such as pushbuttons and
selector switches should be Type 4 rated or oil-tight
and should not contain illumination devices such as
incandescent bulbs, unless they are protected as noted below.
NOTE: A majority of end users permit the use of generalpurpose illuminated operators in Division 2 areas, if they are
isolated from impact with guards.
Pepperl+Fuchs Group
In addition to considerations for internal equipment, special

attention must be given to printing devices. First, in order
to dispense the printed material, protected enclosures may
require a "chute" to guide it outward. Second, a "slot" must be
incorporated to dispense the printed material, while minimizing
the leakage of protective gas. Finally, if the slot dispenses
printed material through the top of the protected enclosure, or
if printed material is only dispensed periodically, the protected
enclosure may also require a cover or a sealed access door to
prevent enclosure contamination.
Motors
Totally enclosed motors, with NEMA ratings such as TENV,
TEFC or TEAO, are best suited for pressurization, but the
following factors should also be considered. (1) All motors
should have sufficient cavities and openings to permit the flow
of protective gas around the windings. ( 2) The gas connections
for the supply and return of protective gas should be located
at extreme opposite ends of the motor. (3) Peripheral devices
such as electrical connections, optical encoders and brakes
may require a separate housing, purged in series with the
motor. (4) Pressure within the motor should not exceed
the minimum requirement,
because excessive pressure
will force grease out of
shaft bearing seals. Finally,
Class I motors require 10
volume exchanges before
energizing power.

Typical Applications
Cameras & Monitors
Security surveillance is possible in hazardous areas with a P+F
purge/pressurization system. Often used for surveillance on unmanned,
offshore oil rigs and local refineries, a camera is encased in a Videoalarm
Pressure Dome and purged with nitrogen using P+Fs 1000 series, Type
Y purge system, which allows general-purpose rated equipment to be
operated in a Division 2 location. The system regulates and monitors the
pressure within the enclosure in order to remove and prevent flammable
gas or vapor accumulations. These systems are also used by Homeland
Security.
Videoalarm Pressure Dome is a trademark of Videoalarm.
Spirax Steam Trap Monitoring

A 1000 series, Type Y purge system enables an existing steam
trap monitoring system to be placed in a Division 1 location.
Automatic trap monitors enable up to 16 steam traps to be
monitored continuously and ensures that the steam system is
working at optimum efficiency with a minimum impact on the
environment.
Pharmaceutical companies are able to change from a PLC control to

a PC-based control, even if the PC is located in a hazardous location,
Class I, Division 1. An explosionproof box is big, expensive, and wont
allow accessibility to the PC. Pepperl+Fuchs has the solution. With simple
modifications, Pepperl+Fuchs can integrate a purge & pressurization
system into a stainless steel enclosure so that an industrial visualization
unit can be mounted in a hazardous area. This way, general-purpose
and hazardous location visualization systems look and feel the same
to their workforce.

Pepperl+Fuchs purge & pressurization systems are extremely

valuable in the aircraft industry. Laser units can be enclosed in
a specially-designed enclosure that enables the laser beam to
project through a widow and on to an aircraft. The unit is purged
using a P+F purging system mounted directly on the enclosure.
These systems are certified for use in Ex [p], Class I, Division 1 /
Zone 1 to nonhazardous area applications. Stripes, logos, and text
are projected on to the body of an aircraft while it is in the hangar.
Robots paint the aircraft body with no taping or stencils. It greatly
reduces prep time and safely ensures precise positioning of the
text and logos.

Filling & Weighing

Beginning with the controls, protection of a filling or weighing system is
simple. Weigh scale platform equipment is usually easy to pressurize, or
may be available in intrinsically safe versions. From there, filling equipment,
such as solenoids, motors, servos and dribble valves can be protected in
a number of ways. Finally, to complete the application, on-site, real-time
printouts of tickets, reports or product labels can be obtained by adding
custom-built pressurized enclosures for the printing equipment.

Introduction
Type Y, Z and Ex [nP]
Purge/Pressurization Systems
For Class I/Zone 2

and Class II Hazardous Areas
Pepperl+Fuchs Bebco EPS YZ Purge panel mount
purge/pressurized enclosure systems enable general-purpose
devices to be used in a hazardous area by creating a safe
area within the enclosure. This is accomplished by purging
the hazardous gas or by removing the hazardous dusts
from the enclosure before the equipment is energized.
The gas used to purge the enclosure can be inert or
instrument quality air. Positive pressure in the enclosure
prevents intrusion of flammable gases.

Description
Model 1001A
1000
SERIES
Type Y & Z
Model 1001A is an enclosure pressurization or purging

system that operates on a supply of compressed instrument
air or inert gas. It regulates and monitors pressure within
sealed (protected) enclosure(s), in order to prevent
combustible dust accumulation or remove and prevent
flammable gas or vapor accumulations. In Class II areas,
the system maintains a "safe" (1.0") pressure. In Class I
areas, the system accomplishes four air exchanges and
maintains a "safe" (0.25") pressure. These processes
reduce the hazardous (classified) area rating within the
enclosure(s), in accordance with the NEC - NFPA 70,
Article 500, NFPA 496 and ISA 12.4.
LPS Style
(Less Pressure Switch)
Operation
In accordance with system instructions, start-up requires
air supply to be engaged and enclosure power to be
deenergized. In Class II areas, all dust must be removed
from the enclosure(s). The enclosure protection vent
(if used) must be tested and enclosure(s) must be sealed.
The enclosure pressure control regulator is then used to
set a safe reading on the enclosure pressure gauge. In
Class II areas, power can be energized when safe pressure
is stable. In Class I areas, the user must perform an
exchange cycle (determined by the safe pressure flow
ratefive minutes minimum) before power can be energized.
Loss of safe pressure in Class I or II areas requires immediate
attention, unless power is deenergized. WPS style systems
include an explosion proof differential pressure switch with
form "C" contacts for audible or visual alarm systems.

Description
Model 1002
Model 1002 is a Rapid Exchange purging system that

operates on a supply of compressed instrument air or inert
gas. It regulates and monitors pressure within sealed
(protected) enclosure(s), in order to remove and prevent
flammable gas or vapor accumulations. The system
accomplishes four air exchanges and maintains a "safe"
(0.25") pressure. A Pepperl+Fuchs Model EPV-2 Enclosure
Protection Vent is required for proper operation. This
process reduces the hazardous (classified) area rating
within the enclosure(s), in accordance with the

requires air supply to be engaged and enclosure power
to be deenergized. The enclosure protection vent must
be tested and the enclosure(s) must be sealed. The
enclosure pressure control valve is then used to set a
safe reading on the enclosure pressure indicator. When
safe pressure is stable, the Rapid Exchange control valve
must be fully engaged. Upon completion of the Rapid
Exchange cycle, (five minutes minimum) the Rapid
Exchange control valve must be disengaged to return to a
safe enclosure pressure. Power can then be energized to
the protected enclosure(s). Loss of safe pressure
requires immediate attention, unless power is deenergized.
WPS style systems include an explosion proof differential
pressure switch with form "C" contacts for audible or
visual alarm systems.

Description
Model 1011
Model 1011 is an enclosure pressurization or purging

system that operates on a supply of compressed
instrument air or inert gas. It regulates and monitors
pressure within sealed (protected) enclosures, in order to
prevent combustible dust accumulation or remove and
prevent flammable gas or vapor accumulations. In Class
II areas, the system maintains a "safe" (1.0") pressure.
In Class I areas, the system accomplishes four air
exchanges and maintains a "safe" (0.25") pressure.
These processes reduce the hazardous (classified) area
rating within the enclosure(s), in accordance with the
1000
SERIES
Type Z
Operation
to be deenergized. In Class II areas, all dust must be
sealed. The enclosure pressure control regulator is then
used to set a safe reading on the enclosure pressure
gauge. In Class II areas, power can be energized when safe
pressure is stable. In Class I areas, the user must perform
an exchange cycle (determined by the safe pressure flow
ratefive minutes minimum), before power can be
energized. Loss of safe pressure in Class I or II areas
System installation may be enhanced with a stand-alone
Pepperl+Fuchs Model EPSK explosion proof switch kit to
provide form "C" contacts for audible or visual alarm systems.

protected enclosure(s), in order to remove and prevent
flammable gas or vapor accumulations. The Model 3003
consists of three major components: (1) a pneumatic
manifold assembly, (2) a differential enclosure pressure
indicator and (3) a stainless steel face plate with mounting
flange, or a Lexan system start up instruction nameplate.
Model 3003 is offered in three distinct variations, identified
as "VM" (Vertical Mount), "HM" (Horizontal Mount), both
available in WPS & WPSA styles, and "CK" (Component Kit)
mounting configurations. The VM configuration features a
filter regulator and face plate with a flange for mounting
to a vertical surface. The HM configuration features a
regulator and face plate with a flange for mounting on a
horizontal surface. Finally, the CK configuration is a kit
of parts including the pneumatic manifold assembly, the
enclosure pressure indicator and a start-up instruction
nameplate. The VM and HM configurations are intended
for flange or frame mounting to a solid surface on or near
the protected enclosure(s), while the CK configuration is
intended for frame mounting through cutouts in a panel
on or near the enclosure(s). With the addition of a Model
GCK gauge conversion kit, all configurations can be
mounted through the surface of a protected enclosure.
The CK configuration provides a seal that withstands
type 4 hosedown testing. Model 3003 accomplishes the
required volume exchanges and maintains a safe pressure.
Pepperl+Fuchs Model EPV-3 enclosure protection vent is
required for proper operation. This process reduces the
hazardous (classified) area rating within protected enclosure(s),
in accordance with the NEC - NFPA 70, NFPA 496,
ISA 12.4 and IEC 600 79-15 EN 50021.

and enclosure(s) must be sealed. After transferring the valve
key, locked into the pneumatic manifold's Rapid Exchange
control valve stem, the enclosure pressure control valve is
used to set a safe reading on the enclosure pressure indicator.
When safe pressure is stable, the valve key is transferred
and locked into the Rapid Exchange control valve stem
and the Rapid Exchange control valve is then fully engaged.
Upon completion of the Rapid Exchange cycle, (five minutes minimum) the Rapid Exchange control valve is disengaged to return to a safe enclosure pressure. Power can
then be energized to the protected enclosure(s). Loss of
safe pressure requires immediate attention, unless power
to the protected enclosure(s) is deenergized. WPS and
WPSA style systems include an explosion proof differential pressure switch with form "C" contacts for audible or

protected enclosure(s), in order to remove and prevent
flammable gas or vapor accumulations. The Model 3004
consists of three major components: (1) a pneumatic
manifold assembly, (2) a differential enclosure pressure
indicator and (3) a stainless steel face plate with mounting
flange, or a Lexan system start up instruction nameplate.
Model 3003 is offered in three distinct variations, identified
as "VM" (Vertical Mount), "HM" (Horizontal Mount), both
available in WPS & WPSA styles, and "CK" (Component Kit)
mounting configurations. The VM configuration features a
filter regulator and face plate with a flange for mounting to
a vertical surface. The HM configuration features a regulator
and face plate with a flange for mounting on a horizontal
surface. Finally, the CK configuration is a kit of parts
including the pneumatic manifold assembly, the enclosure
pressure indicator and a start-up instruction nameplate.
The VM and HM configurations are intended for flange or
frame mounting to a solid surface on or near the protected
enclosure(s), while the CK configuration is intended for
frame mounting through cutouts in a panel on or near the
enclosure(s). With the addition of a Model GCK gauge
conversion kit, all configurations can be mounted through
the surface of a protected enclosure. The CK configuration
provides a seal that withstands type 4 hosedown testing.
Model 3004 accomplishes the required volume exchanges
and maintains a safe pressure. Pepperl+Fuchs Model EPV-3
enclosure protection vent is required for proper operation.

Introduction
For Class I/Zone 1
and Class II Hazardous Areas
Type X, Ex [px] systems change a Division 1 hazardous
area to nonhazardous, enabling general-purpose equipment
to be used in a hazardous area. Pepperl+Fuchs Bebco EPS
Type X, Ex [px] systems are operating systems that allow
full control of the purging, pressurization and monitoring
of the pressure before and after purging. This eliminates
the guesswork of purging and operation of the system.
Type X, Ex [px]
Purge/Pressurization Systems
Type X
Systems
Type X , Ex [px] systems operate by forcing air or

an inert gas through the enclosure for a specified time
until all of the hazardous gas is removed. This creates
a positive pressure which is maintained by either a
continuous or compensating flow of air through the
enclosure. The positive pressure keeps the hazardous
gas outside the enclosure. If the pressure inside the
enclosure drops below a minimum value, the power
switches off and the purge sequence begins again.
For more information on purge and pressurization
regulations, refer to NFPA 496 Purged and Pressurized
Enclosures for Electrical Equipment Edition and ISA-12.4
Instrument Purging for Reduction of Hazardous
Area Classification.
Class I/Zone 1
During startup, the pressure within the enclosure is at
atmospheric pressure and contains hazardous gases.
This hazardous atmosphere must be purged with air or an
inert gas for at least 4 times the volume (5 times for ATEX
requirements) of the enclosure (a motor must be purged ten
times its volume) while maintaining a pressure of at least
0.2" water column. Pepperl+Fuchs Type X, Ex [px] systems
exceed the NFPA minimum standards by maintaining 0.25"
water column for ATEX requirements when applicable. After
purging, the differential pressure must be at least 0.2" water
column. The equipment cannot be energized until these
conditions are met. Power automatically shuts off if the
differential pressure inside the enclosure falls below 0.2".
The system reenergizes only when the integrity of the air
lock is restored and the purging cycle is successfully completed.
Class II/Zone 21 Applications

The hazard in a Class II/Zone 21 application is potentially
flammable dust. During startup, the area inside the
enclosure is at atmospheric pressure and is considered
flammable. After the dust is removed and the enclosure
is sealed, a protective gas pressurizes the enclosure to
at least 0.5" water column. At this point, the enclosure
is safe and equipment inside can be energized. Type X
systems must deenergize power to the enclosure when the
differential pressure falls below the minimum requirement.

Type X
Description
Model 2001A
Model 2001A is a pressurization or purging system that

dust accumulation or remove and prevent flammable
gas or vapor accumulations. In Class II areas, the system
maintains a "safe" (1.0") pressure. In Class I areas, the
system accomplishes four air exchanges and maintains a
"safe" (0.25") pressure. In addition, the system includes an
electrical power control unit (EPCU) that monitors system
operation and controls enclosure power. All start-up
requirements must be satisfied before the EPCU will
energize power to the enclosure(s). These processes
reduce the hazardous (classified) area rating within the
2000
SERIES
Type X
Basic Operation
requires the air supply to be engaged and EPCU power
to be energized. In Class II areas, all dust must be
sealed. The EPCU power control switch must be activated
and the system will self-test. The enclosure pressure
control regulator is then used to set a safe reading on the
enclosure pressure gauge. In Class II areas, power
will energize shortly after safe pressure is stable. In Class I
areas, the system must perform an exchange cycle
(determined by the safe pressure flow ratefive minutes
minimum) before power can be energized. Loss of safe
pressure causes the EPCU to deenergize power to the
protected enclosure(s). All systems include form "C"

The Pepperl+Fuchs 2000 Series EPCU is a factory

programmed, field adjustable, microprocessor controlled
unit featuring full status indication, redundant gate
array logic and electromechanical relays. The EPCU is
constructed from four major items: (1) a power module,
(2) a pressure switch module, (3) a logic module and
(4) a power mode selector switch. The sections are
linked with polarized cable, and the boards are stacked
in the EPCU enclosure on standoffs.
Basic EPCU Operation

When power is "off", the EPCU is at rest, alarm and
power relays are deenergized, and the LED display is
off. When power is switched "on", the EPCU performs
a self-test of LED display and logic functions. The unit
will then start-up. Class II units must detect a 0.50"
pressure to energize the alarm relay. The enclosure
power relays energize after a brief delay. Class I units
must detect a 0.25" pressure to energize the alarm
relay and begin an exchange cycle. When the cycle
stops, the power relays will energize. Loss of safe
pressure on either unit causes alarm and power relays
to deenergize (see power control options for more
information regarding EPCU operation).

FIELD ADJUSTABLE TIMER FUNCTIONS

RET (Rapid Exchange Timer) provides a time delay after safe
pressure is detected, to allow four volume exchanges prior to
energizing the enclosure power relays. In Class I areas only, if
safe pressure is lost during time delay cycle, EPCU will reset.

NOTE: EDT & SLT timers not functional on Series 2001 Systems
Power Control Options

NORMAL RUNNING (NR) MODE
EPCU features an on-off pushbutton power control switch to activate control functions. Switch must be depressed to initiate
start-up. After completion of start-up, safe pressure must be lost
or switch must be depressed to deenergize enclosure power relays.
CONDITIONAL BYPASS (CB) MODE
EPCU features an off-on-bypass power control switch to activate
control functions. Switch must be set to "on" position to initiate start-up.
After enclosure power is energized, safe pressure must be lost or
switch must be set to "off" position to deenergize enclosure power.
After enclosure power is energized, switch may be set to "bypass"
position to temporarily latch enclosure power relays. A flashing
LED then indicates bypass engaged, and the enclosure can then
be accessed without deenergizing power (performed under specific
conditions). Following access, safe pressure must be reestablished
to resume normal operation. At that time, the switch may be reset
to the "on" position without disruption of enclosure power. Alarm
relay normally deenergizes only upon loss of safe pressure, but
can be programmed to deenergize when bypass is engaged, if
specified at time of order.

OPTIONAL INTRINSIC SAFETY BARRIERS

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
The EPCU Logic Module can accommodate up to three intrinsic safety barriers to interact with
remote devices and affect operation of the EPCU. The barriers are installed and programmed by
the factory at time of order, and they are designed to function either in conjunction with a customer
furnished switch and a Pepperl+Fuchs furnished resistor network cable, or a Pepperl+Fuchs
furnished proximity detector. Each barrier develops a low power signal to create a two-wire
closed-loop circuit. Operational status of each barrier is indicated by a green LED to show active
(closed switch) status, and by a red LED to show faulted (line breakage) cable status. All barriers
can be reprogrammed to duplicate other barrier functions as required, upon specific request.

Barrier A Function - when switch opens
Disables start-up cycle
Deenergizes enclosure power and alarm relay
Functions parallel to safe pressure switch
Barrier B Function - when switch opens
Not programmed - custom applications only

the system includes an electrical power control unit (EPCU)
that monitors system operation and controls enclosure
power. All start-up requirements must be satisfied before
the EPCU will energize power to the enclosure(s). This

energized. The enclosure protection vent must be tested
and the enclosure(s) must be sealed. The EPCU power
control switch must be activated and the system will
self-test. The enclosure pressure control valve is used to
manually set a safe reading on the enclosure pressure
indicator. When safe pressure is stable, the Rapid
Exchange control valve is fully engaged by manual or
automatic means (dependent on System Style, see
below). Upon completion of the Rapid Exchange cycle,
disengages manually or automatically. Pressure returns
to the safe setting and enclosure power is energized by
the EPCU. Loss of safe pressure causes the EPCU to
deenergize power to the protected enclosure(s). All
systems include form "C" contacts for audible or visual
alarm systems.
STD Style
(Standard)
FA/SA Style
(Fully Automatic/Semiautomatic)
STD (Standard) Style systems require manual operation

of the Rapid Exchange control valve.
SA (Semiautomatic) Style systems require manual
engagement of the Rapid Exchange control valve to initiate
the exchange cycle, but automatically disengages the valve
upon completion of the cycle. Loss of safe pressure requires
an operator to manually restart both systems above
FA (Fully Automatic) Style systems engage and disengage
the Rapid Exchange control valve automatically, after an
operator manually sets a safe pressure. In addition, FA
Style systems restart automatically after a power or air
pressure failure.

Operation of 6000 series
The 6000 series consists of the control unit and user interface
mounted in a 316L stainless steel Type 4X (IP66) enclosure
with the pneumatic solenoid valve mounted on the unit. A
proportional valve can be ordered in place of the solenoid valve
for continuous control of flow and pressure to the enclosure.
The EPV-6000 series relief vent is separate and is mounted to
the enclosure. The 6000 series control unit is also available in
a kit form that consists of the key components of the system,
the control unit, and the user interface. It does not include the
enclosure and manifold. The user interface includes a panelmount bracket so that it can be panel mounted to the customers
enclosure. The pneumatic valve for the protective gas can
be supplied by the customer, or the 6000 series manifold or
proportional valve can be purchased separately. The EPV-6000
relief vent is still required.
The components of the 6000 series control unit are listed below:

The 6000 series control unit and vent can be universally
mounted to the customer enclosure. Top, bottom, right-, or leftside mounting can be completed with only one control unit and
vent. Mounting configuration does not need to be designated
when ordering. One unit is used for enclosure sizes up to 450 ft3
(12.7 m3 ).
Electronic Power Control Unit EPCU
The EPCU houses the redundant microprocessors, enclosure
power contacts, (2) auxiliary contacts, power supply module,
galvanically isolated barriers for the inputs, vent(s), and
temperature modules; all stackable and easy to remove and
install into the explosionproof enclosure that houses them.
The power supply module is available in 24 VDC or 100-240 VAC
units. The enclosure power contacts are forced-guided safety
relays. The auxiliary contacts can be user configured for different
functions depending on user requirements.

Pepperl+Fuchs Group
User-Interface Controller - UIC

The 6000 series is user programmable for many of the
configurable options available. This is done with the intrinsically
safe user-interface on the face of the unit, which can also be
remote mounted. The user-interface is a 2 x 20 LCD that is
programmed through a set of buttons on the menu driven unit.
All configuration and options are programmed through this unit.
There are also (5) LEDs for easy visual indication of operation:
S
afe Pressure This turns on (blue) when safe pressure is
achieved inside the enclosure.
E
nclosure power This is (red) when the enclosure power is
off, and (green) when enclosure power is on. The enclosure
power can be on only after a successful purge and a safe
pressure is achieved. Bypass option allows power to remain on
if safe pressure is lost.
R
apid Exchange The Rapid Exchange or purging flow rate
turns on (blue) when the flow rate is measuring proper flow.
S
ystem Bypass This turns on (yellow) when the system
bypass is active. This should be used only when the area
around the enclosure is known to be safe.
A
larm Fault The (red) LED blinks when any alarm input is
detected and is solid when there is an internal system fault.
Pneumatic Manifold with I.S. Solenoid
Manifold with I.S. solenoid valve: The manifold system is
mounted on the 6000 control unit providing a needle valve to
set enclosure pressure and an I.S. solenoid valve that is used
for purging (Rapid Exchange). Power for the I.S. solenoid valve
is provided by the EPCU and is galvanically isolated. Regulated
instrument-grade air or nitrogen is required.
Proportional valve option: The I.S. proportional valve is
separated on the 6000 control unit and provides continuous
flow and pressure to the enclosure for purging (Rapid
Exchange) and pressurization. Power for the I.S. solenoid valve
is provided by the EPCU and is galvanically isolated. No needle
valve is required. Pressures can be controlled from a user set
point.
The 6000 series unit can be ordered without the manifold
or proportional valve so that customers can use their own
method or valves for purging and pressurization. If a third-party
electronic valve is used, the valve must be certified and installed
in accordance with the hazardous location where it is operating.
The use of the 6000 series manifold unit allows easy and correct
installation of the system.
Requirements for Purging/Pressurization
Certifications allow the 6000 series to be used on enclosures
in a gas, dust, or both gas and dust hazardous atmospheres.
Gas atmospheres require the purging of the enclosure. Dust
atmospheres require the physical removal of all the dust that
collects inside. Both gas and dust atmospheres require the
following: 1) removing the dust, 2) sealing the enclosure, and then
3) purging the enclosure.
After these sequences, the pressure within the enclosure is
above the minimum level. The equipment within the enclosure
can be energized.

Operation of 6000 series
Purge Timing
When using the 6000 series in a gas or gas and dust location,
the time for purging an enclosure can be based either on a
known purge rate and time (fixed purge time), or based on the
flow rate being measured from the vent (dynamic purge time).
Both methods base the time on the flow measurement at the
vent, and complete the process in steps. The EPCU will take the
readings from the vent and use the appropriate reading (listed
below) as the useable flow rate. For example, if the flow rate
measurement from the EPV-6000 vent is 7 SCFM, the EPCU
will use 5 SCFM as the flow rate for evaluation. The flow rate
measurement steps and corresponding enclosure pressures are
as follows:
5 SCFM @ 1.3 w.c. , (141 l/min @ 33 mm w.c.)
12 SCFM @ 2.5 w.c., (340 l/min @ 64 mm w.c.)
20 SCFM @ 3.1 w.c., (565 l/min @ 77 mm w.c.)
30 SCFM @ 3.4 w.c., (850 l/min @ 86 mm w.c.)
Dynamic Purge Time

Dynamic purge time allows the purge time to be updated to
the purge flow through the vent. This method is not dependent
on a constant flow from the protective gas source. It bases
the purge time on the measured flow and not a set flow. This
is very useful when the protective gas supply pressure varies
throughout the purging cycle or when it may vary from one
installation to another.
The following parameters must be entered for the dynamic
purge time:
Enclosure volume
Number of exchanges
The purge time will be based on the measurement of the vent
and evaluation of this measurement from the EPCU. This allows
recalculation of the time based on this measurement. During the
dynamic purge time, the user-interface will display the purge
time in a percentage starting with 0% and ending with 100%
(purge time complete).
Purging Modes
Purging start-up can be set up in 4 different modes, which are
explained below:
STD Standard mode requires the operator to engage
the manifold solenoid valve manually when purging and
manually disengage when a successful purging is complete.
PV The proportional mode will continuously control the

flow rate during and after purging. This allows maximum
efficiency of the protective gas supply. This is very useful
for areas where there is a limited amount of the protective
gas supply available.
Inputs
There are (4) intrinsic safety inputs for activation of various
outputs and actions by the EPCU. These inputs accept only
a dry contact for activation and are supplied by the EPCUs
galvanically isolated barrier. The assignments of the inputs
for various actions are achieved through the user-interface
controller. Only one function can operate an input. These inputs
can bypass the system for live maintenance on the enclosure.
The intrinsic safety inputs activate the auxiliary relays, energize
the Rapid Exchange valve, de-energize the enclosure contacts,
and shut the system down, in addition to many more actions
and outputs.
Outputs
There are (2) normally open dry contacts for the enclosure
power that can be energized only after a successful purging and
a minimum enclosure pressure is maintained. Loss of pressure
will cause the contacts to de-energize unless the shutdown
timer is active or bypass mode is implemented.
Also available are the Auxiliary 1 and Auxiliary 2, SPDT dry
contact outputs. The auxiliary outputs can be user configured
using the user-interface controller and are controlled by various

Fixed Purge Time

If the purge time must be held to a specific time, then this time
is based on the known enclosure volume, number of volume
exchanges, and flow rate through the vent. If the flow rate is
below the required minimum, then the purging cycle will reset
and will not start until the flow rate is above the selected rate.
This set up does not allow purge flow to go below the value
required and will not recalculate the time for purging if it goes
above the required purge rate. This measurement method is the
same type as was used in our previous system, the 4000 series.
FA Fully-automatic mode will automatically engage the

manifold solenoid valve when safe pressure is detected and
will automatically disengage when a successful purging is
complete.
EPV-6000 I.S. Relief Vent

The EPV-6000 vent exhausts excess pressure from the
enclosure if the pressure with in the enclosure is above 1.0 w.c.
and measures flow and pressure during operation. The 6000
series vent has a pressure transducer and thermal flow sensor
that is connected to the 6000 EPCU and is intrinsically safe
through the galvanic isolation barrier within the EPCU. Because
measurement of the flow is always at the exhaust of the
pressurized enclosure, the vent is located on the enclosure(s)
such that it is venting to the atmosphere.
The vent is connected to the I.S. termination board using the
V1 connector and cable that comes with the vent. The EPV6000 vent can be mounted vertically or horizontally and is not
gravity dependent. For corrosive environments, the EPV-6000
has an optional stainless steel cap so that the body of the vent
is mounted in the enclosure with just the stainless steel cap
exposed to the outside environment.
SA Semiautomatic mode requires the operator to engage

the manifold solenoid valve manually when purging. The
EPCU will automatically disengage when a successful
purging is complete.

Electrical Wiring Diagrams
The I.S. termination board is mounted inside the Type 4X
(IP66) stainless steel enclosure and does not require any
lead seals to the EPCU enclosure. Wiring from the EPCU to
this I.S. termination board is provided.
The power connection for enclosure power, auxiliary
outputs and power to the EPCU is completed within
the explosionproof enclosure that houses the EPCU. A
stainless steel conduit extends to the outside of the
Type 4X, IP66 stainless steel enclosure for easy connection
of the lead seals. Lead seals or Ex de cable glands are not
provided, but are available as an option. Any certified lead
seal or Ex de cable glands can be used. No special seals
are required.

Enviro-Line
Description
The Enviro-Line series is an environmental pressurization
system designed for nonhazardous areas that contain
dusty, dirty, and corrosive atmospheres. It operates on a
supply of compressed instrument air or inert gas to regulate
and monitor the pressure within the sealed enclosure. This
prevents the accumulation of damaging and caustic gases
and dusts. The elimination of these gases and dusts extends
the life of the enclosures expensive electrical equipment and
instrumentation. Due to higher pressures inside the electrical
enclosure, corrosive environments remain outside. The
system maintains a constant 0.5" water pressure inside the
enclosure. The Enviro-Line offers a complete environmental
pressurization system including a regulator or vent,
depending on your application. It is designed for enclosures
up to 250 ft3.

Operation
Using the Enviro-Line pressurization unit is uncomplicated and straightforward.
The Enviro-Line pressurization unit is delivered as a complete kit and installs
easily with all connection and mounting accessories included. Since the unit is
designed for use in nonhazardous areas, power to the enclosure can be energized
prior to engaging the air supply. The redundant regulator is used to keep incoming
enclosure pressure at a maximum of 5 psi. The enclosure pressure control
regulator is used to set a safe reading on the enclosure pressure gauge after the
enclosure has been sealed. The Enviro-Line pressurization unit:

Indicator Gauge
Description
Cooler Indicator Gauge

System Accessories
The cooler indicator gauge, sometimes called the

Vortex indicator gauge, is used on systems were there is
cooling required after purging. Normally after the purging
cycle, there is a small flow of protective gas required to
compensate for leakages, and to keep a constant pressure
within the enclosure so that the ingress of hazardous
atmosphere cannot get inside the enclosure. This is known
as pressurization. If the equipment inside the pressurized
enclosure requires cooling, either a higher flow rate of
protective gas is required through the pressurization valve,
or a second source of cooling gas is introduced into the
enclosure. The standard differential pressure gauge will
indicate pressurization only up to 0.5 inches (13 mm) water,
which may not be enough for cooling indication. The cooler
indicator gauge is installed onto the pressurization/purge
panel, and allows monitoring of the system during normal
operation of the purge/pressurization system.

Enclosure Protection Vents
Description
System Accessories
Model EPV
Model EPV enclosure protection vents are self-seating

gravity controlled, low pressure relief valves designed to
ventilate excessive enclosure pressures that are created
by the Rapid Exchange process, or the failure of the
enclosure pressure control devices. Each vent features a
seamless cap, a spark arresting (SA) style exhaust element,
a friction-free valve assembly, a base and a mounting hub.
The mounting hub, along with associated pipe fittings,
permits direct mounting through a round cutout on the
top or side of a protected enclosure. This device functions
in conjunction with Pepperl+Fuchs enclosure protection
systems, to reduce the hazardous (classified) area rating
within protected enclosure(s), in accordance with the
In addition, this device protects enclosures from all limited
sources of pressure relief, regardless of source - i.e.
unrelated pneumatic equipment, such as analyzers or
other process control or measurement instrumentation.

Operation
Pepperl+Fuchs enclosure protection vents operate in
a manner similar to a self-closing swing-check valve, and
must, therefore, be installed in a true vertical position.
They begin operation when pressure within the protected
enclosure exceeds 0.65 inches (16.5 mm) of water 0.1
inch (2.5 mm). When the valve seat cracks, pressure is
immediately released, and the effects of gravity begin
yielding to the forces of enclosure back-pressure. Each
vent is designed to operate in specific conjunction with
a cross-section of Pepperl+Fuchs Rapid Exchange and
pressurization/purging systems that exhibit similar flow
characteristics, in order to ventilate their maximum (total
failure condition) flow rate, while maintaining no more
than 5 to 7 inches (127 mm to 177 mm) of water pressure
within the protected enclosure(s).*
* Vent, Enclosure Protection System and protective gas supply
must be sized, installed and operated in strict accordance
with all related start-up instructions on the system, and with
all related directives of the Installation and Operation Manual
provided with the Enclosure Protection System.

Enclosure Warning & Temperature Nameplates
Description
System Accessories
Model EWN & ETW
Model EWN Warning Nameplates are attached to

enclosures that utilize Pepperl+Fuchs Enclosure Protection
Systems. Model EWN-1, for use in Class I areas, warns
against opening the enclosure unless the area is free of
flammable vapors or unless all devices within the enclosure
have been deenergized. It also warns against energizing
devices within the enclosure until it is purged in accordance
with protection system instructions. Model EWN-2, for
Class II areas, provides the same warnings indicated above.
In addition, it requires removal of hazardous dusts within
the enclosure, before it is repressurized. Both nameplates
provide locations for Pepperl+Fuchs or user inscribed
markings. The markings indicate the area classification
(Class, Division & Group), the pressurization type (X, Y or Z)
and the temperature code of the protected enclosure. At
time of order, the user may specify or decline the marking
inscriptions. These nameplates function in conjunction
with Pepperl+Fuchs Enclosure Protection Systems, to
reduce the hazardous (classified) area rating within
protected enclosure(s), in accordance with the

Enclosure Connection Kits & Tamper Proof Regulator
Model ECK Description
Model ECK & TR

System Accessories
Model ECK-11 & ECK-1001A enclosure connection kits

are factory installed tubing kits that enhance enclosure
protection system Models 11 and 1001A in flange mounted
(LH, RH, TM & BM) configurations. Model ECK eliminates
the requirement for tubing skills, thus allowing OEM
installers to quickly and effortlessly adapt a Model 11 or
1001A to their existing product, utilizing only basic hand
tools and drills. The kit terminates at flush connector fittings
which penetrate the system's mounting flange, for a tight,
compact installation. This feature is limited to Model 11
& 1001A systems, because they cover broad application
ranges and are intended for a single, small enclosure,
where this connection method is considered practical and
safe under all conditions. Installation of systems equipped
with this kit requires the addition of two holes to the normal
mounting hole pattern.

The tamper proof regulators feature a mounting ring,

removable cap and hex key adjustment stem. These
regulators have a 0-30 psi gauge, and are intended for
use as a redundant, tamper proof regulator for enclosure
protection system models, Class I, < 2 ft3 and Class II systems,
when the systems are installed without an enclosure
protection vent. The tamper proof regulator can be
substituted at time of order, upon request, to replace the
hand operated enclosure pressure control regulator on the
same models listed above. The tamper proof regulator
is intended to prevent tampering, while allowing a more
stable setpoint to be achieved. This substitution is generally
necessary for small, tightly sealed enclosures where
protective gas flow is critically low and, therefore, more
difficult to stabilize. As an enhancement, it is designed to
offset the possible need for more costly, precision low flow
regulators (please consult factory for more information).

GPSK Description
Model GPSK-1 and GPSK-2 general-purpose switch
kits are similar to Model EPSK-1 and EPSK-2 above, but
are not rated for hazardous outdoor locations and are
intended for mounting inside the protected enclosure.
Therefore, the switch connections are reversed so that the
high port references enclosure pressure with a vent, and
the low port references atmospheric pressure with tubing
to the bulkhead union. The switches must be wired with
an intrinsically safe alarm signal circuit, or be considered
as protected devices that can be deenergized along
with all similar devices before the protected enclosure
is opened. Alarm devices may be protected by other
suitable means (such as an explosion proof beacon or
horn, mounted externally, with a conduit seal).

Model EPSK-1 and EPSK-2 explosion proof switch

kits are loose accessories that provide electrical contacts
for audible or visual alarm devices that signal a loss of
protected enclosure pressure. Model EPSK-1 is calibrated
to alarm at 0.15" for Class I applications. Model EPSK-2 is
calibrated to 0.50" for Class II applications. The kits
consist of a pre-fitted explosion proof differential pressure
switch, an enclosure pressure reference bulkhead union
w/vent and mounting bolts for the switch. The switches
feature an atmospheric reference vent in the low port and
an enclosure pressure reference tube fitting in the high
port. The switches are, therefore, intended to mount
outside the protected enclosure and are suitable for
hazardous (classified) outdoor locations. The installer
must first mount the pressure switch and bulkhead union,
then install tubing between the switch's enclosure pressure
reference tube fitting and the bulkhead union. Wiring
must be installed with a seal and conduit fittings that
are suitable for the location. Alarm circuit power may
be derived from the protected enclosure power source
or an intrinsically safe alarm signal source. However, all
associated alarm devices must be protected by suitable
means (explosion proof, purged or intrinsically safe).

"L" & "T" Style Conduit Fitting Kits
LCK Description
Model LCK & TCK

System Accessories
Model LCK is a kit of loosely shipped conduit fittings that

initiate the basic conduit installation between an enclosure
protection system and the protected enclosure, for power
and/or alarm wiring connections. The kit consists of a
conduit union, two close nipples, a conduit seal, an elbow
or "L" conduit fitting, and an enclosure mounting hub.
When utilized with WPS style Type Y or Z systems, the
kit is used to carry alarm signal wiring to the protected
enclosure. The wire is then routed to its final destination,
such as a remote annunciator, or a beacon on top of the
enclosure. When utilized with Type X systems, the kit is
normally used to carry power wiring to the protected
enclosure. In both cases, basic installation requires
punching a 1/2" conduit knockout in the enclosure,
cutting one (1) 1/2" pipe nipple to length, and installing
the kit between the system and protected enclosure.
TCK Description
Model TCK is a kit of loose shipped fittings that
accomplishes the same function as Model LCK above,
but includes a tee or "T" fitting for a third connection
point, along with an additional seal and close nipple. This
kit, therefore, not only initiates the basic conduit installation
between an enclosure protection system and the protected
enclosure, but also provides for a third wiring connection
path to another device, such as a power switch or local alarm.

Custom Conduit Kits

In addition to the kits above, Pepperl+Fuchs can produce
any conduit assembly for repeat OEM orders. These custom
assemblies can include, but are not limited to, pre-fitted
conduit and pigtail wiring or MI cable assemblies. Customer
must provide a detailed installation drawing with precise
dimensions to receive an accurate quotation. Please consult
a factory sales representative for more information.
Important Note

Model LCK & TCK are offered primarily to

OEMs attempting to achieve a "field-ready"
installation. In all cases, limited pipe
fitting skills will be required. Pre-cut 150#
galvanized steel pipe nipples can be
acquired from local plumbing shops, but
a hole saw or punch and wrenches are
required to install kits.

Tubing & Pipe Connection Fitting
System Accessories
Model SC, NC,

EBC, EFC & EPC
SC & NC Fittings
Model SC Straight Connector and NC Ninety Connector
fittings provide a standard tubing connection for the female
regulator port of most Rapid Exchange Purging Systems.
When these systems are outfitted with Model SC or NC
fittings, they can be connected to the protective gas supply
with standard 1/4", 3/8" or 1/2" diameter, 0.035" wall
stainless steel tubing. Model 1005 & 2005 systems are
not accommodated because they require a direct 1/2" pipe
connection to the protective gas supply for proper operation.
EFC Fittings
Model SC
Straight Connector
Model NC
ninety Connector
Model EFC enclosure flush connector fittings provide

a standard tubing connection on the protected enclosure(s).
Because these fittings feature a neoprene O ring and short
body, they form an exceptional seal, requiring the smallest
possible amount of interior clearance. They are intended
for the tubing supply connection on the first enclosure of
any installation, and are compatible with all systems, except
Models 1005 & 2005. In addition, Model EFC-4 fittings
provide the enclosure pressure reference connection on
any enclosure for any Pepperl+Fuchs enclosure protection
system, because all Pepperl+Fuchs systems feature a
1/4" tube fitting on the enclosure pressure reference port.
EBC Fittings
Model EBC
Enclosure bulkhead Connector
Model EBC enclosure bulkhead connector fittings provide

a standard bulkhead tubing connection on a protected
enclosure. The fitting features tubing nuts on both ends, to
permit tubing to continue through the surface of an enclosure.
They are suitable for the enclosure supply connection on
any system, with exception to Models 1005 & 2005. These
fittings are often used to increase the outward aesthetic
appearance of an installation, because they can be mounted
directly behind a system and be connected by a short
piece of tubing. Then, another piece of tubing can be routed
inside the enclosure to the desired point of supply discharge.
This method of installation conceals the supply tube, and
leaves the outside surface of the enclosure free of obstructions.
EPC Fittings

Model EPC
Enclosure pipe Connector
Pepperl+Fuchs Group
Model EPC (Enclosure Pipe Connector) fittings provide a

standard female pipe connection on a protected enclosure to
terminate pipe connections between multiple enclosures. The
pipe connections may be used solely to transfer protective
gas, but may also be used as "pressurized raceways" if
adequate precautions are taken to insure an unrestricted flow
of protective gas. Model EPC-10 is suitable for the supply
connection between an enclosure and a Model 1005 or 2005
system. While these fittings are normally associated with the
use of electrical conduits, their strong construction makes them
ideally suited for low pressure applications; but they are by no
means intended for high pressure pneumatic service.

Typical EPCU Logic Module (2000 Series Only)
Model ISB intrinsic safety barriers are factory installed

and programmed galvanically isolated transformers that
receive remote control signals to operate the EPCU
(electrical power control unit) on Type X Systems. The EPCU
logic module can accommodate up to three model ISB
transformers, known as ISB-1, 2 and 3, located along
the left side. The transformers are designed to function
in conjunction with a customer furnished switch and
Pepperl+Fuchs Model SRM-4000 switch resistor module,
or a Pepperl+Fuchs model NJ... Proximity Detector. Each
transformer develops an isolated low power signal, to
create a two wire closed loop circuit. Operational status
of each barrier is indicated by a pair of LEDs positioned
to the left of ISB. The green LEDs show active (closed
switch) status, and the red LEDs show barrier or wiring
fault status. Isolated conduit entries, a solid body wireway
with snap cover and Lexan wiring partitions, provide a
fully isolated customer wiring path to a six point terminal
strip which provides input and output connections to each
barrier. All barriers can be reprogrammed by the factory to
duplicate other barrier functions, upon request.

The model NJ NAMUR proximity sensor is offered

as an alternative to using the model SRM-400 switch
resistor module and a customer furnished switch. It is an
interface sensor that fits directly to the Pepperl+Fuchs
ISB barrier and activates and deactivates the intended
barrier. When placed within 1/16'' of a metallic surface,
the sensor closes and activates the intended barrier. As
the detector moves away from the metallic surface, the
detector opens and the barrier is deactivated.
NOTE: It is necessary to reprogram the EPCU when
using the NJNAMUR proximity sensor.

Enclosure protection vent flow switch, remote pressure switch
Barrier C (ISB-3) - when customer's switch closes

Energizes Rapid Exchange solenoid valve

Model SRM-4000 switch resistor module is an interface

device that must be fitted between a customer's switch
and Pepperl+Fuchs ISB barrier, to activate or deactivate
the intended barrier. The Module consists of a ten-foot cable,
a small plastic case and a 6" two-wire lead that is intended
for the switch. When installed correctly, the module allows
the ISB transformer to detect three distinct conditions as
follows: (1) the switch is open, (2) the switch is closed and
(3) the wire is broken. The long cable end of the module
is typically installed through a dedicated entry on the side
of the EPCU, and is routed to the customer's switch. The
cable can be installed in free air tray or conduit, and must
be isolated from all other power sources. The switch or
relay contact that provides the switch signal must be fully
isolated from all other power sources.

power control switch on a Type X System EPCU. The
assemblies feature a zinc body locking cam, with a
stainless spring cover cap and spring loaded lockout
plunger, a precision machined body, mounting base and
two keys. The assemblies are most commonly used on
an EPCU programmed to operate in CB (conditional
bypass) power control modes (see Type X System power
control options).
Model L Operation
Design features require the operator to insert the key to
travel between the "Off" and "On" positions. When the
"On" position is attained, the spring loaded plunger engages
and drops to the body surface. In order to travel to the
"Off" or "Bypass" positions, the operator must pull the
plunger upward with their free hand, before the key will
turn. This design performs two very important functions.
First, it prevents the EPCU from being placed in bypass
unintentionally, while attempting to turn the unit on. Second,
it prevents the EPCU from being turned off unintentionally,
while attempting to disengage bypass. The key is only
removable in the "Off" and "On" positions to prevent or
limit the unattended or unauthorized use of the bypass
feature. Model L assemblies can also be utilized with
EPCUs programmed for NR (Normal Running). In these
applications, the bypass position is disabled and the key
is removable in the on or off position.
Model RP1 & RP2

Model RP1 redundant safe pressure switches and
Model RP2 redundant Rapid Exchange switches are
factory installed differential pressure switches that are
wired to operate in series with the switches included with
standard EPCUs. In these applications, the primary and
redundant switch must be satisfied before the EPCU will
initiate or execute start-up functions (see Type X bulletins
EPCU operation).
In special applications the redundant switches can
be wired parallel to create a dual channel purging
or pressurization system, capable of protecting two
enclosures separately and simultaneously. Please consult
with a factory sales representative for more information.

Appendix
Purging Times Reference
Purge Times for Type X, Y and Z Systems

This procedure is used to calculate the time required to purge a Type X, Y or Z system for Class I areas. Purging is
required to expel the hazardous atmosphere from the protective enclosure so that equipment within the enclosure
can be energized safely. The following information is required to calculate the purge time for a protective enclosure:

Enclosure volume
Flow rate
Motors inside the enclosure
Purge media
Enclosure volume The volume of the protective enclosure when it is empty. The easiest way to obtain this is
to take the outside measurements of the enclosure. If several enclosures are pneumatically linked, include the
volume of each enclosure and the volume of the tubes linking them. Make sure the tubes are large enough to
prevent excess back pressure in the first enclosure.
Flow rate The flow rate is determined by the purge system. The flow rate is indicated on the panel under the
instruction label for Type Y or Z systems. For Type X systems, the flow rate is stated in the startup manual.
Motors If a motor or another enclosure is inside the protective enclosure, the enclosure must be purged at least
ten times the enclosure volume. If no motor is present, only four volumes need to be purged. For IEC and EN
standards, five volumes must be purged.
Purge Media Flow rates, differential pressure gauges and switches are calibrated with air as the protective gas. If
another gas is used, use the following density correction factor:
molecular weight of air
Density correction factor =

molecular weight of protective gas

Example: A Type Z, Class I, Division 2 system has a protective enclosure size of 36" x 36" x 40". Calculate

the time to purge the enclosure with nitrogen (molecular weight 28.01) and with air (molecular

weight 28.96).

Area of protective enclosure = 36" x 36" x 40" = 51,840 in3

Since 1 ft3 = 1,728 in3, 51,840 in. 1,728 in3 / ft3 = 30.0 ft3.
For an enclosure of 30 cu. ft., select 3003 purge panel. The flow rate during purging is 12 cu. ft. per
minute as indicated on the label.
There is no motor or internal enclosure inside the protective enclosure so four times the volume must
be purged.

Purging Times Reference
Selecting the Correct EPV with Vortex Cooling

The Vortex cooler is a mechanical device that separates the cold and hot compressed air supply. Cool air is
directed into the enclosure and cools off the equipment. Because the vortex cooler is introducing an extra airflow
into the enclosure, the combination of the pressurization flow and vortex flow will increase the enclosure pressure.
The additional flow from the Vortex cooler could exceed the flow of the vent.
Two parameters must be determined before sizing the correct vent for the system:

(1) Maximum flow rate of the Vortex cooler

(2) Maximum pressure allowed for the enclosure
Adding both parameters results in the maximum flow rate of the system. The data sheet for the EPV (pg. 114)
provides the maximum flow rate for each vent. Choose a vent from the maximum flow rate calculated above for a
pressure acceptable for the enclosure.

Example:
Customer is using a Vortex cooler and a 3003 panel. The Vortex cooler has a max. flow

rate of 30 ft3/min. (1800 ft3/hr). Which vent should be used?
Purge rate of the panel: 12 ft3/min (provided in the 3003 data sheet)
Vortex flow rate:
30 ft3/min
Max. flow rate:
42 ft3/min x 60 = 2520 ft3/hr

The EPV-4-SA unit is the best choice for this application. When the rapid exchange and vortex cooler is on, the
enclosure pressure is around 3 H2O. This is normal for purging/pressurization systems. When Vortex cooler is
used in a purge/pressurization system, the next size EPV is often required for the application.
