General Guidelines

XPS/XCT Series - Certificate SIRA 99ATEX5153X

This equipment may be used in hazardous areas associated with all gases with

temperature classes T1, T2, T3 and T4 for the XPS series (XPS-10, XPS-15, XPS-30 and

XPS-40) and T1, T2 and T3 for the XCT series (XCT-8 and XCT-12). The XPS series is only

certified for use in ambient temperatures in the range of - 40°C to 95°C and the XCT

series is only certified for use in ambient temperatures in the range of -40°C to 145°C.

Neither should be used outside of their respective temperature ranges.

Installation shall be carried out in accordance with the applicable code of practice, and

by suitably trained personnel.

These devices should only be supplied from a circuit containing a suitably-rated fuse that

has a breaking capacity of 4000A. This fuse is included in Siemens Milltronics’

transceivers.

Repair of this equipment shall be carried out in accordance with the applicable code of

practice.

The certification of this equipment relies on the following materials used in their

construction:

Manual override can be accomplished by using the disconnect switch provided in the

building installation of the associated controller.

XPS D Series - Certificate SIRA 01ATEX5262X

This equipment may be used in all hazardous dust zones with all conductive and non-

conductive dusts. The Type XPS-10D, XPS-15D, XPS-30D and XPS-40D Series transducers

have a maximum surface temperature of 135°C (275°F) (Temperature Class T4). These

units are certified for use in ambient range of -40 to 95°C (-40 to 203°F). The transducers

should not be used outside this temperature range. The XPS-10D, XPS-15D, XPS-30D and

XPS-40D Ultrasonic Transducers must be installed so the face of the transducer is not

substantially subjected to light.

Installation shall be carried out in accordance with the applicable code of practice, and

by suitably trained personnel.

WARNING: Materials of construction are chosen based on their

chemical compatibility (or inertness) for general purposes. For exposure to

specific environments, check with chemical compatibility charts before

installing.
