Explosive atmospheres - Part 36: Non-electrical equipment for explosive atmospheres - Basic method and requirements (ISO 80079-36:2016)

ISO 80079-36:2016 specifies the basic method and requirements for design, construction, testing and marking of non-electrical Ex equipment, Ex Components, protective systems, devices and assemblies
of these products that have their own potential ignition sources and are intended for use in explosive atmospheres. Hand tools and manually operated equipment without energy storage are excluded from the scope of this standard. This standard does not address the safety of static autonomous process equipment when it is not part of equipment referred to in this standard. This standard does not specify requirements for safety, other than those directly related to the risk of ignition which may then lead to an explosion. The standard atmospheric conditions (relating to the explosion    characteristics of the atmosphere) under which it may be assumed that equipment can be operated are:
- temperature -20 °C to 60 °C;
- pressure 80 kPa (0,8 bar) to 110 kPa (1,1 bar); and
- air with normal oxygen content, typically 21 % v/v. Such atmospheres can also exist inside the equipment. In addition, the external atmosphere can be drawn inside the equipment by natural breathing produced as a result of fluctuations in the equipment's internal operating pressure, and/or temperature. This part of ISO/IEC 80079 specifies the requirements for the design and      
construction of equipment, intended for explosive atmospheres in conformity with all Equipment Protection Levels (EPLs) of Group I, II and III. This standard supplements and modifies the general    
requirements of IEC 60079-0, as shown in Table 1 in the Scope of the document.

Explosionsfähige Atmosphären - Teil 36: Nicht-elektrische Geräte für den Einsatz in explosionsfähigen Atmosphären - Grundlagen und Anforderungen (ISO 80079-36:2016)

Diese Norm legt die Grundlagen und Anforderungen an Konstruktion, Bau, Prüfung und Kennzeichnung von nichtelektrischen Geräten und Ex Komponenten fest, die für explosionsfähige Atmosphären vorgesehen sind. Diese Norm ist auch für die Konstruktion, den Bau, Prüfung und Kennzeichnung von Komponenten, Schutzsystemen, Geräten und Baugruppen dieser Produkte anwendbar, die eigene potenzielle Zündquellen besitzen und für explosionsfähige Atmosphären vorgesehen sind.
Die Norm legt keine Anforderungen an die Sicherheit fest, ausgenommen jene, die in direktem Zusammen-hang mit dem Explosionsrisiko stehen.
Die normalen atmosphärischen Bedingungen (im Hinblick auf die Explosionseigenschaften der Atmosphäre), unter denen davon auszugehen ist, dass das Gerät betrieben werden kann, sind:
-   Temperatur 20 °C bis +60 °C;
-   Druck 80 kPa (0,8 bar) bis 110 kPa (1,1 bar);
-   und Luft mit normalem Sauerstoffgehalt, gewöhnlich 21 % (Volumenanteil).
ANMERKUNG 1   Derartige Atmosphären können auch im Innern des Gerätes vorhanden sein. Zudem kann die externe Atmosphäre durch natürlichen Austausch als Folge von Schwankungen des Betriebsinnendrucks und/oder der Tempe¬ratur in das Innere des Gerätes gezogen werden.
ANMERKUNG 2   Obwohl die oben aufgeführten normalen atmosphärischen Bedingungen einen Temperaturbereich für die Atmosphäre von 20 °C bis +60 °C angeben, ist der normale Umgebungstemperaturbereich für das Gerät 20 ° bis +40 °C, sofern es nicht anders festgelegt und gekennzeichnet ist. Angenommen wird, dass 20 ° bis +40 °C für die meisten Geräte angemessen ist und dass die Fertigung aller Geräte unnötige Konstruktionsbeschränkungen auferlegen würde, um sie für die Anwendung in einer normalen Atmosphäre im oberen Temperaturbereich von +60 °C geeignet zu machen.
ANMERKUNG 3   Die Anforderungen der vorliegenden Norm können auch bei Konstruktion, Bau, Prüfung und Kennzeich¬nung von Geräten von Nutzen sein, die für den Einsatz in Atmosphären bestimmt sind, die nicht in den oben festgelegten Gültigkeitsbereich dieser Norm fallen. Jedoch sollten in diesem Fall die Zündgefahrenbewertung, die vorgesehene Zünd¬schutzart, zusätzliche Prüfungen (falls erforderlich), die technische Dokumentation des Herstellers und die Betriebs¬anleitung für den Anwender die Eignung der Geräte für die möglichen Einsatzbedingungen eindeutig darstellen und nachweisen. Auch sollte unbedingt bedacht werden, dass Temperatur  und Druckänderungen einen wesentlichen Einfluss auf die Zündfähigkeit haben können.
Sie legt die Anforderungen an die Konstruktion und den Bau von Geräten fest, die für explosionsgefährdete Bereiche in Übereinstimmung mit allen EPL der Gruppen I, II und III vorgesehen sind. Diese Norm kann durch Normen ergänzt werden, die die spezifischen Zündschutzarten betreffen.
ANMERKUNG 4   Nach dieser Norm für ein bestimmtes EPL konstruierte und gebaute Geräte können in Bereichen eingesetzt werden, die ein EPL mit höherem Sicherheitsniveau durch die Anwendung von zusätzlichen Explosionsschutz¬maßnahmen und/oder  verfahren erfordern. Derartige Anwendungen werden in der vorliegenden Norm nicht behandelt. Zu derartigen Explosionsschutzmaßnahmen und/oder  verfahren zählen beispielsweise Inertisierung, Explosionsunter¬drückung, Explosionsdruckentlastung oder explosionsfeste Bauweise oder z. B. Konzentrationsverringerung durch Verdünnen, Absaugung, Überwachung und Abschaltung. Derartige Explosionsschutzverfahren liegen außerhalb des Anwendungsbereichs dieser Norm.
Diese Norm ergänzt und modifiziert die allgemeinen Anforderungen von IEC 60079-0 bis auf die in Tabelle 1 angegebenen. Steht eine Anforderung der vorliegenden Norm im Widerspruch zu einer Anforderung von IEC 60079-0, hat die Anforderung der vorliegenden Norm Vorrang, soweit sie auf ein nichtelektrisches Gerät zutrifft.

Atmosphères explosives - Partie 36: Appareils non électriques destinés à être utilisés en atmosphères explosives - Méthodologie et exigences (ISO 80079-36:2016)

L'ISO 80079-36:2016 spécifie la méthodologie et les exigences de base pour la conception, la construction, les essais et le marquage des appareils Ex non électriques, des composants Ex, des systèmes de protection, des dispositifs et des assemblages de ces produits qui comportent leurs propres sources potentielles d'inflammation et qui sont destinés à être utilisés en atmosphères explosives. Les outils à main et les appareils à fonctionnement manuel sans stockage d'énergie sont exclus du domaine d'application de la présente norme. La présente norme ne traite pas de la sécurité des appareils de procédés autonomes statiques s'ils ne font pas partie des appareils auxquels la présente norme fait référence. La présente norme ne spécifie pas les exigences de sécurité autres que les exigences directement liées au risque d'inflammation pouvant entraîner une explosion. Les conditions atmosphériques normalisées (relatives aux caractéristiques d'explosion de l'atmosphère), selon lesquelles il peut être assumé que les appareils peuvent fonctionner sont les suivantes:
- température de - 20 °C à 60 °C;
- pression de 80 kPa (0,8 bar) à 110 kPa (1,1 bar); et
- air avec teneur normale en oxygène, typiquement de 21 % v/v. De telles atmosphères peuvent également exister à l'intérieur de l'appareil. En outre, l'atmosphère externe peut être aspirée à    
l'intérieur de l'appareil par la respiration naturelle produite en raison des variations de pression de fonctionnement interne de l'appareil et/ou de la température. La présente partie de l'ISO/IEC
80079 définit les exigences relatives à la conception et à la construction des appareils destinés à être utilisés en atmosphères explosives en conformité avec tous les niveaux de protection de    
l'appareil (EPL) des Groupes I, II et III. Cette norme complète et modifie les exigences générales de l'IEC 60079-0 comme indiqué dans le Tableau 1 dans l'avant-propos du document.

A) Definitions
Minor and editorial changes clarification
decrease of technical requirements
minor technical change
editorial corrections
Changes in a standard classified as ‘Minor and editorial changes’ refer to changes regarding the
previous standard, which modify requirements in an editorial or a minor technical way. Also changes of
the wording to clarify technical requirements without any technical change are classified as ‘Minor and
editorial changes’.
A reduction in level of existing requirement is also classified as ‘Minor and editorial changes’
Extension addition of technical options

Changes in a standard classified as ‘extension’ refers to changes regarding the previous standard, which
add new or modify existing technical requirements, in a way that new options are given, but without
increasing requirements for equipment that was fully compliant with the previous standard. Therefore
these ‘extensions’ will not have to be considered for products in conformity with the preceding edition.
