To maintain DEKRA certification, the transducer is provided with a ATEX and IECEx certified compression fitting
and/or adapter of either thread M25 X 1.5 (material: brass) or ¾" NPT (material: 316 SS), both with tube size of 0.50"
O.D. For example: Tyco part number 496SSGL34Ex ATEX certified under BASEEFA 08ATEX0327X and IECEx
BAS08.0107X, Peppers adapter part number ARB/NP/075NPT/M20 ATEX certified under SIRA09ATEX1322X or
SIRA09ATEX4323X and IECEx SIR09.0121X and reducer Capri part number 740724 ATEX certified under
LCIO8ATEX6085X and IECEx LC018.0035X or equivalent parts. ATEX/IECEx certified enclosure, Type Ex d IIC.
For example: International Metal Engineering PTE Limited (IME) Type 8080, 8075, 8066 or 7080 certified under
SIRA 07ATEX1331U and IECEx SIR 07.0111U or equivalent that complies with EN 60079-0:2012/IEC 60079-0:2011
and EN 60079-1:2007/IEC 60079-1:2007. For example: Cortem SL-26.1N certified under CESI 03ATEX032U or
equivalent. A certified metric-to-NPT adapter (material: brass) may be used in addition to the compression fitting in
applicable configurations. Both fitting and adapter to comply with EN 60079-0:2012/ IEC 60079-0:2011 and EN
60079-1:2007/ IEC 60079-1:2007 for Ex d IIC. For electrical connection, the transducer must be mounted into a
certified metal enclosure with type of protection flameproof enclosure "D", complying with EN 60079-1:2007 and IEC
60079-1:2007 Ex d IIC. Measures must be taken to ensure a good electrical contact and to prevent the threads from
self-loosening. The compression fitting is suitable for temperatures –60°C to 250°C.
