SECTION 4
Maintenance
After maintenance or replacement of parts concerning explosion protection an
authority on explosion protection has to verify that the analyzer still meets the
requirements for explosion protection before it is switched on again.
If parts essential for explosion protection are repaired they have to be routine
tested!
The authority has to issue a certificate for this and/or attach a test label to the
equipment before startup after maintenance or replacement of parts.
To ensure the performance and safety of the
equipment it has to be checked on a regular
basis, at least once a year. Special care has
to be taken for the EEx p saftey device and
parts ensuring explosion protection (e.g.
gaskets).
It is the operators/owners
responsibility to extend the
maintenance interval with
respect to negative
influences of gases or
environment on materials in
contact with the sample gas
or ensuring explosion
protection (e.g. gaskets).
