Electrical apparatus: Explosion protected power distribution, switchgear and
controlgear-combination, type series
Klippon TBe MH, Klippon TBe QL and Klippon TBe FS
The explosion protected power distribution, switchgear and controlgear-combinations, of type
series Klippon TBe MH, Klippon TBe QL and Klippon TBe FS comprise a series of
enclosures made of stainless steel or sheet steel. The enclosures are available in various
design sizes and can be equipped with different combinations of modular terminal blocks and
separately certified apparatus. The equipment is intended for stationary installation inside the
hazardous area.
The following separately certified, intrinsically safe equipment is intended for installation:
- Proximitor, type 3300XL, Bently Nevada
- Displacement chain, type OD-105x, Brüel & Kjaer
- Temperature transmitter, type 248R, Rosemount Inc.
- Temperature transmitter, type 644R, Rosemount Inc.
Depending on the type of protection or the protection level and the type of built-in intrinsically
safe equipment the power distribution, switchgear and controlgear-combinations can be
operated as category 1, 2 or 3-equipment (EPL Ga, Gb, Gc, or Db) under the following
markings:
II 1 G Ex ia IIC T6...T4 Ga or II 2 G Ex ib IIC T6...T4 Gb or
II 3 G Ex ic IIC T6...T4 Gc or II 2 D Ex tb IIIC T 120 °C Db or
II 3 G Ex nA IIC T6...T4 Gc
For relationship between the permissible ambient temperature, type of protection, tempera-
ture class and type of enclosure as well as the number and type of the installed devices, ref-
erence is made to the following tables. These tables apply in each case to the specified
numbers of one and the same type of equipment; a combination of several types is not per-
mitted.
