EN 60079-0:2012

Explosive atmospheres - Part 0: Equipment - General requirements

IEC 60079-0:2011 specifies the general requirements for construction, testing and marking of electrical equipment and Ex Components intended for use in explosive atmospheres. Electrical equipment complying with this standard is intended for use in hazardous areas in which explosive gas atmospheres, caused by mixtures of air and gases, vapours or mists, exist under normal atmospheric conditions. The standard atmospheric conditions (relating to the explosion characteristics of the atmosphere) under which it may be assumed that electrical 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. This standard and other standards supplementing this standard specify additional test requirements for equipment operating outside the standard temperature range, but further additional consideration and additional testing may be required for equipment operating outside the standard atmospheric pressure range and standard oxygen content, particularly with respect to types of protection that depend on quenching of a flame such as 'flameproof enclosure 'd'' (IEC 60079-1) or limitation of energy, 'intrinsic safety 'i'' (IEC 60079-11). This sixth edition cancels and replaces the fifth edition, published in 2007, and constitutes a full technical revision with numerous updates. NEW! IEC 60079-0:2011 is also available as IEC Standards+ 60079-0:2011 which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.

Explosionsgefährdete Bereiche - Teil 0: Betriebsmittel – Allgemeine Anforderungen

Atmosphères explosives - Partie 0: Matériel - Exigences générales

La CEI 60079-0:2011 spécifie les exigences générales de construction, d'essais et de marquage du matériel électrique et des Composants Ex destinés à être utilisés dans des atmosphères explosives. Equipement électrique conforme à cette norme est destiné dans les zones dangereuses dans lequel les atmosphères explosives de gaz, causées par des mélanges d'air et de gaz, de vapeurs ou de brouillards, existent dans des conditions atmosphériques normales. Les conditions atmosphériques normales (relatives aux caractéristiques d'explosion de l'atmosphère) dans lesquelles il peut être supposé que l'appareil électrique peut être utilisé 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 21 % v/v. La présente norme et les autres normes qui la complètent spécifient des exigences d'essai supplémentaires pour les équipements fonctionnant hors de la plage de température normale, une attention supplémentaire ultérieure et des essais complémentaires pouvant toutefois se révéler nécessaires pour les équipements fonctionnant hors de la plage de pression atmosphérique normale et de la teneur normale en oxygène, notamment pour les modes de protection qui dépendent de l'extinction d'une flamme tel qu'une 'enveloppe antidéflagrante 'd' (CEI 60079-1) ou de la limitation de l'énergie tel que la 'sécurité intrinsèque 'i'' (CEI 60079-11). Cette sixième édition annule et remplace la cinquième édition publiée en 2007 dont elle constitue une révision technique complète. NEW! La CEI 60079-0:2011 est également disponible sous forme de IEC Standards+ 60079-0:2011 qui contient la Norme internationale et sa version Redline, illustrant les modifications du contenu technique depuis l'édition précédente.

Eksplozivne atmosfere - 0. del: Oprema - Splošne zahteve (IEC 60079-0:2011, spremenjen)

Ta del standarda IEC 60079 določa splošne zahteve za konstrukcijo, preskušanje in označevanje električne opreme in sestavnih delov s protieksplozijsko zaščito Ex, namenjenih uporabi v eksplozivnih atmosferah. Standardni atmosferski pogoji (povezani z eksplozijskimi značilnostmi atmosfere), pod katerimi se lahko sklepa, da je mogoče električno opremo uporabljati, so: – temperatura –20 °C do +60 °C, – tlak 80 kPa (0,8 bara) do 110 kPa (1,1 bara) in – zrak z normalno vsebnostjo kisika, običajno 21 % v/v. Ta standard in drugi standardi, ki ga dopolnjujejo, določajo dodatne preskusne zahteve za opremo, ki deluje zunaj standardnega temperaturnega razpona, vendar so lahko potrebni dodatni premisleki in preskusi za opremo, ki deluje zunaj standardnega razpona atmosferskega tlaka in standardne vsebnosti kisika, zlasti ob upoštevanju vrst zaščite, ki so odvisne od gašenja plamena, kot so »ognjevarno ohišje ›d‹« (IEC 60079-1) ali omejitev energije »lastnovarne električne naprave ›i‹« (IEC 60079-11).

NACIONALNI PREDGOVOR

Evropski standard EN 60079-0:2012 je sestavljen iz besedila IEC 60079-0:2011, ki ga je pripravil
tehnični odbor IEC/TC 31 Oprema za eksplozivne atmosfere, in skupnih sprememb, ki jih je pripravil
tehnični odbor CLC/TC 31 Električni aparati za potencialno eksplozivne atmosfere.

Slovenski standard SIST EN 60079-1:2012 je prevod evropskega standarda EN 60079-0:2012. V
primeru spora glede besedila slovenskega prevoda v tem standardu je odločilen izvirni evropski
standard v angleškem jeziku. Slovensko izdajo standarda je pripravil tehnični odbor SIST/TC EXP
