Australian Standards for Gas Detection /EX Equipment
| DESIGN OF EQUIPMENT | ||
| AS/NZS
60079.29.1:2008 : Explosive atmospheres - Gas detectors - Performance requirements of detectors for flammable gases |
Specifies general requirements for construction, testing and performance, and describes the test methods that apply to portable, transportable and fixed apparatus for the detection and measurement of flammable gas or vapour concentrations with air. The apparatus, or parts thereof, are intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres and in mines susceptible to firedamp. | |
| INSTALLATION | ||
| AS/NZS
60079.29.2:2008 : Explosive atmospheres - Gas detectors - Selection, installation, use and maintenance of detectors for flammable gases and oxygen |
Specifies general requirements for construction, testing and performance, and describes the test methods that apply to portable, transportable and fixed apparatus for the detection and measurement of flammable gas or vapour concentrations with air. The apparatus, or parts thereof, are intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres and in mines susceptible to firedamp. | |
| HAZARDOUS AREA CLASSIFICATION | ||
| AS/NZS
60079.10:2004 : Electrical apparatus for explosive gas atmospheres - Classification of hazardous areas (IEC 60079-10:2002 MOD) |
Specifies
the classification of hazardous areas where flammable gas or vapour risks
may arise, in order to permit the proper selection and installation of
apparatus for use in such hazardous areas.
|
|
| OTHER | ||
| AS/NZS
60079.20:2000 : Electrical apparatus for explosive gas atmospheres - Data for flammable gases and vapours, relating to the use of electrical apparatus |
Data for flammable gases (ie gas groups and temp classes,
LEL,UEL, etc)
This technical report gives guidance on the selection of appropriate electrical apparatus, protected by flame-proof enclosure or designed to be intrinsically safe, according to the gas or vapour in which it is intended to be used. |
