Within the European Community, intrinsically safe pressure sensors may only be utilized in hazardous areas if they are installed together with an Ex barrier. The combination of pressure sensor and Ex barrier must meet the ? เกจวัดแรงดันแก๊สlpg ? relative to the 94/9/EC ATEX directive. Not absolutely all combinations of sensor and barrier from different manufacturers fulfil this condition.
On the one hand, it can be that the safety or Ex characteristic values do not match, on the other hand, the functional characteristics must also match the application. So, even if the safety-related data match, the couple of Ex barrier and pressure sensor might not match since, for instance, both components work ?passively?.
(Additional information on the subject ?active?/?passive? are available in the blog article ?Electrical circuitry for pressure sensors: when is really a sensor active, so when passive??)
Therefore, factors to consider that you merely use barriers and sensors together whose safety-related data and function-related data match one another. We therefore directly recommend, in our intrinsically safe pressure sensors? data sheets, a potentially compatible intrinsically safe Ex barrier.
