1 Principle of pressurizing system
To operate motors in hazardous areas some especially requirements are needed for
the electrical and mechanical equipment.
On the base of the Ex-protection p, internal overpressure, motors can operate in
these areas. For this the cabinet of the motors should be sealed in a way that the
leakage of compressed air is very low. Furthermore a pressure supply with sufficient
air supply has to be in reserve.
The principle sequence of a safety device for a pressurizing system is shown as

followed:
After the start of the functional sequence the air flow of the purge gas and the
thereby in the motor growing overpressure are monitored.
If a minimum of air flow streams through the motor enclosure (measure point
in the outlet valve) and a fixed motor enclosure overpressure has been
reached the purge time starts. After the purge time ran off, the motor can be
started.
If some faults appear the control sequence is set to the start point of the
functional sequence.
The safety device has to be combined with a main control system, which
prevents the start of the motor until the purging sequence has finished.
The Ex p pressurization system F-361.B4/B4M serves to create and maintain an

overpressure in an Ex p motor enclosure to prevent the ingress of the ambient
(potentially explosive) atmosphere, according to EN 60079-2.
In addition a compensation of the leakage air is realized in unique redundancy
combination of a mechanical valve and electronic controlled proportional valve for
safe and reliable operation.
Motors with kind of Ex-protection Ex p can operate in combination with the

Ex p system F-361.B4/B4M in Ex areas 1 and 2 (according to ATEX 95).
Combined with an enclosure which is suitable for use with overpressure the Ex
protection class
II 2G Ex px IIC T4
according to EN 60079-2 can be obtained.

Before commissioning please take note of the following points:
Clean the connected air pipe or tubing system of the installation plant to
ensure that the supplied air tube is free of dirt or small parts which will cause a
malfunction of the purging system, if no air filter is used.
Check outlet valve so all movable parts for ease of movement, before getting
started.
Check if all connections are mechanically secured.
The internal volume of the motor enclosure must be purged with non-
explosive compressed air, to reduce a possible explosive gas concentration to
safe limits. The overpressure has to be monitored permanent.
After purging the motor enclosure an overpressure must be maintained inside

the motor to prevent ambient air, which can contain explosive gas.
If the pressure drops under the reference value an alarm signal is given and the
motor has to be switched off.

2 Main Parts
The Ex px System F-361.B4 /B4M consists of:

2.1 Control cabinet ST-200B/ST-200BM
consists of: main air valve for pressure supply, purge valve, proportional valve
for operating pressure (leakage compensation), adjustment valves
for purge- and leakage volume, measure points (to acquire
leakage volume and the pressure inside the motor enclosure),
indicator for purge pressure, Ex d junction box GUB-02, Ex d box
GUB, main switch, control unit F-351.P (connected with terminals
in junction box) for the potential free signals:
PURGING IN PROGRESS
READY TO START
MOTOR SHUTDOWN
PURGE SEQUENCE FINISHED
MOTOR NOT PURGED
The purge unit in the control cabinet ST-200B/BM monitors the air flow of the
outlet valve and the pressure inside the motor enclosure. Simultaneous the
control automatic works in accordance with EN 60079-2 and ATEX 94/9.
2.2 Outlet valve VA-65-5
The outlet valve with integrated particle and flame barrier opens during the
purging sequence to ensure the purging of the motor enclosure according to
EN 60079-2. The valve closes completely if the purging sequence is finished.
The built-in safety overpressure valve opens at approx. 30 mbar overpressure.
The sea water proof, corrosion free stainless steel enclosure, Splash water and
sandstorm protected air outlet can be mounted on an existing EN flange
connection of the enclosure in angle steps of 90 degrees with a standard gasket
sheet in between. Mounting of the valve is only allowed in an upright or
horizontal position. The orifice is adjustable even during valve operation and has
an easily accessible measuring point for measuring or check of the volume flow
through the outlet with suitable measuring devices even during operation.
Orifice diameter adjustment:

Remove the cube-shaped cover by unscrewing the four hat nuts on its top.
Unscrew the black adjustment lever from its storage bolt.
Snap the lever on the black hexagon adjustment screw.
Turn the lever according to the printed scale to a higher number for a smaller
orifice diameter or to a lower number to increase the orifice diameter (do not
turn below 1).
The volume flow diagram printed on the side may help to estimate the
adjusted air flow.
Screw the lever on its storage bolt again, so the new orifice size is fixed. Put
the cover of the valve on its top and fix with the four nuts again.

Compressed air in the industry must always be in perfect condition, but that it is not
by nature. On the contrary, dust is everywhere in different concentrations. On cooling
the compressed air comes from humidity unwanted water. Air quality is measured
according to DIN ISO 8573-1-2010 and divided into the following three classes:
The quality class of solid contaminants

The quality class for the water content
The quality class of the total oil content
For most applications of pressurized enclosures made by ELB the following

classification of air quality according to ISO 8573-1 is sufficient:
Particles = Class 5 (m) but 3 (mg/m)

Water = Class 4
Oil = Class 3

9.2 Structure and Function
In conjunction with an enclosure (motor enclosure, junction box), the Ex-px system
F-361.x4 provides a pressurized motor that is in compliance with EN 60079-2. For
this purpose, it has all the facilities and sensors needed to monitor the necessary
purging phase and then to monitor and maintain an overpressure within the Ex-p
enclosure (motor cabinet).
1 Structure
The controlling system consists mainly of two components which must be installed
separately:
controlling cabinet ST-xxx, with built-in piping, valves, electronic and

the outlet valve VA-xxx.
The controller F-351.Px itself monitors and regulates the overpressure in the
enclosure, while the digital/proportional valves doses the air quantity needed to
achieve the pressurized apparatus.
2 General Functional Description
After a functional test and start-up, the controller F-351 in the control cabinet
ST-xxx monitors the flowrate of the compressed air or inert gas during the initial
purging process, and then monitors and regulates the internal pressure of the
Ex-p enclosure with regard to the surrounding atmosphere during normal
operation.
Display
In three lines of 12 characters each, the digital display shows the enclosures
internal pressure during normal operation, and the remaining purging time in
minutes and seconds during the initial purging process. During normal operation,
you can call up further information by pressing the button "OK / Info". Faults

In the lower part of the cover (see page 1), the terminal assignment of the
Controller is shown. Terminals 1 to 3 are inputs; they provide electrical power to
the Controller. Terminals 4 to 19 are outputs, over which the monitoring unit
drives its peripherals, e.g. the digital/proportional controller.
Immediately after the compressed air supply is opened and the main voltage is
applied, the internal self-check of the controller begins automatically. Any fault
occurring during the self-check sequence is indicated by
Error
XXX
An explanation of the fault numbers (XX) is given in the manual, section 3.5 Faults
and Troubleshooting, Table 1: Faults detected during the self-check.
If the self-check is carried out successfully, the initial purging of the enclosure
commences, ending when at least five times the enclosure volume has been
circulated. The purging process is indicated by the message
Remain. time:

in the display. All the time, the remaining purging time is counted down to 00 min and
00 seconds.
After the end of the purging sequence, the Non-Ex units in the enclosure are
switched on. The overpressure in the enclosure then constantly monitored for
adherence to the setpoint value (factory setting: 2.0 mbar) and also for transgressing
of the MIN value (factory setting: 0.9 mbar) and exceeding of the MAX value (factory
setting: 20.0 mbar). Normal operation is indicated by the message

1. Overpressure in the motor enclosure has to be > 50 Pa against atmosphere.

2. The max. overpressure (adjusted in F-351) not exceeded.
3. Purge flow V1 is smaller than the adjusted Min. value in the F-351.
4. Purge time incomplete.
If all four conditions are fulfilled, hence it follows the state Minimum conditions to start
purge.
While the power supply is switched off and the adjustment of the secondary pressure
(pressure after the pressure regulator is p2 = 3,5 4 bar, the operate
pressure/leakage compensation is adjusted by the leakage valve . Herewith the first
condition overpressure > 50 Pa is fulfilled. The value is in a range of 80 Pa and 1000
Pa (it depends on the construction of the motor enclosure). So the second condition
max. overpressure not exceeded is also fulfilled. The purge flow is smaller than the
adjusted minimum, while the purge valve is closed and in the outlet valve (VA-xxx) no
air flow can be measured. The third condition is fulfilled. The fourth condition is fulfilled,
while the system is not powered.
Standard signal conditions at the terminals in the connection box GUB at this time:

3. Purge flow V1 is higher than the adjusted Min. value in the F-351.
4. Purge time incomplete.
If all four conditions are fulfilled, hence it follows the state Purging.
Condition 1 and 2 are fulfilled from state 1. If the control unit is powered now the prop.
valve opens. While the external command motor start purge is active the purge
valve is open. Now the outlet valve (VA-xxx) opens. The compressed air streams
through the Ex p system and a part of it expands in the motor enclosure. A little
overpressure subsists in the motor enclosure. Through the opened outlet valve (VA-
xxx) the compressed air streams in the environment. In the outlet valve a measuring
point for pressure difference is installed. If the air volume at the end of the outlet valve
is measured with an additional instrument, the start point for the purging can be fixed
by the measured air flow and the differential pressure at this point of time. The air flow
is at this point of time higher than the adjusted value in the control unit. So the third
condition is fulfilled. Hence it follows combined with the condition Purge time
incomplete the state Purging. The purge time starts.
Motor shutdown K2 + K3 12 Contact opened
Purging in progress K4 34 Contact closed
Motor not purged K2 56 Contact closed
Purge sequence finished K2 78 Contact opened
Ready to start K2 + K3 9 10 Contact opened
To prevent a false alarm, as a result of pressure oscillations through the motor housing
during the purging sequence, a drop-out time delay of ca. 5 sec is programmed in the
control unit. This prevents a prompt reset of the purge time to the start value. The
purge time is stopped, if the adjusted diff. pressure is reached within the 5 sec, the
purge time starts at the stopped time. Otherwise the purge time will be resetted.
The required purging time depends on the setting of the purge volume (normally 10
times the free volume of the motor cabinet) and the presetted inlet pressure at the
pressure regulator .

3. Purge time complete.
If all three conditions are fulfilled, hence it follows the state Purging complete. After
the regular purging the Ex [p] system switches automatically the power. The purge
valve only closes, if the command motor start purge is deactivated. Likewise the
outlet valve is closing. Leakage compensation (operating overpressure) in the motor
enclosure is performed by the adjustment valve leakage compensation and if
needed with the proportional valve . The start sequence of the motor can be initiated.
Motor shutdown K2 + K3 12 Contact closed
Purging in progress K4 34 Contact opend
Motor not purged K2 56 Contact opened
Purge sequence finished K2 78 Contact closed
Ready to start K2 + K3 9 10 Contact closed
During the operating time of the motor the enclosure can be leaking. This is corrected
by the proportional valve . The deviation control is supervised by the control unit to
the adjusted operating pressure. The operating pressure can also be readjusted with
the manual valve .
The overpressure in the motor enclosure is supervised by the pressure sensors "Min"
and "Max" in the control unit F-351.P. Drops the overpressure below the adjusted
value of "Min", or increases the overpressure over the adjusted value of "Max", the
operating releases (READY TO START 1 + 2) are cancelled.

16.1 Timing diagram purging sequence
T1: Switching on power supply and opening air pressure supply the control unit begins with a self test and the purging sequence
of the Ex p motor enclosure starts. With an air flow which is higher than the adjusted value min air flow and the air flow is
adequate the adjusted purge volume (min. 10-fold inner free motor volume), the motor enclosure is purged.
T2: The purging sequence is finished. The adjusted motor enclosure overpressure is controlled by the leakage compensation
(see chapter 5 of main manual). The Non- Ex units can be powered.
T3: Normal operation starts.
16.2 Timing diagram operating modus
T2: Normal operation starts. The internal enclosure overpressure is regulated to the set point value.
T3: The internal enclosure pressure rises.
T4: The increased overpressure is controlled down with the proportional valve.
T5: Normal operation begins.

16.3 Timing diagram errors during purging sequence
T1: Switching on power supply and opening air pressure supply the control unit begins with a self test and the purging sequence
of the Ex p motor enclosure starts. With an air flow which is higher than the adjusted value min air flow and the air flow is
adequate the adjusted purge volume (min. 10-fold inner free motor volume), the motor enclosure is purged.
T2: During the purging sequence the internal overpressure increases to an excessively high value.
The purge operation is aborted.
T3: During the purging sequence the minimum air volume flow falls. The purging sequence is resetted.
16.4 Timing diagram errors during the operating modus
T2: Normal operation starts. The internal enclosure overpressure is regulated to the set point value.
T3: The internal enclosure pressure drops. If the pressure value falls below the switch point Minimum pressure in relation to
the external pressure, the Non- Ex units are switched off.
T4: Renewed purge.
T5: Normal operation begins.
T6: The internal enclosure pressure rises. The increased internal enclosure pressure cannot controlled down.
T7: If the internal pressure value exceeds the switch point Overpressure, the Non- Ex units are switched off. The purge valve
is powered, so the outlet valve opens. The increased overpressure sinks to operation values.
T8: After the pressure decrease, normal operation begins without purging.

To operate the Ex p purging system below an ambient temperature of -20 C down to -40 C
heaters will be added inside the control cabinet of system F-361. The heaters and the junction
box (for power supply) are mounted inside the door. The heater is switched on, if the cabinet
temperature drops below +10C to additionally avoid condensation etc.. The Ex p system is
powered while temperature in the cabinet is higher than - 15C.

Maintenance
Due to the type of construction, the heater requires no maintenance. Performance and
safety tests can be conducted at intervals to be determined by the operator in
compliance with current regulations.
Repair work must only be carried out by the manufacturer.
Safety instructions
Installation of the heater in an exposed position involves a certain risk of injury.

Especially the ends of the fins and hot surfaces can pose a risk of burns and injuries.

17.9 Option: F-361.x4 with external pressure Sensor F-290.A
Attention: Option F-369 and option F-290.A cannot be used together!
The below mentioned function is understood as an additional feature, all other features
remain unchanged:
Prologue:
In addition to the standard the pressurization system is extended with an externally
adjustable additional Ex i pressure sensor. This Ex i sensor has a large wheel adjuster
with an adjusting range between 2.0 and 20.0 mbar The maximum switching
hysteresis is stated at 0.4 mbar. The measure connection of this additional, external
sensor is already connected to the outside of the control box and operates to supervise
a second pressurized chamber of the main Ex px protected motor engine.
Additional monitoring functions:

The measure connection of this additional, external sensor is accessable at the outside
of the control box, and should be connected to the additional monitored room of the
Ex p enclosure.
a. To initiate the pre-purging sequence it is essential that even the pressure in the
second supervised chamber of the motor is at least over the adjusted setting of
the additional Ex i sensor.
b. If this internal pressure is not sufficiently the message "waiting for external
release" appears on the LCD of the control unit F-351.
After successful purging the pressure of this second chamber is continuously

monitored by this additional sensor. For safe operation the pressure must be in
each case > set value of the additional sensor.
c. If the pressure in the second Ex p chamber is permanently below the set value
of the external sensor, the message "external monitoring Error" appears with a
delay time of 10 sec on the LCD of the control unit and at the same time the
operation authorization for the Ex px motor engine expires (motor stop
condition).
d. If the pressure in the second chamber is back to normal conditions ( p >

adjusted setting), the release for safe operation will be immediately granted
again. There will be no new purging sequence initiated unless the pressure in
the main chamber of the engine is still above the minimum pressure. (Ps: a new
purging operation is initiated only when the pressure p in the main chamber of
the motor engine falls below the set value).
e. The pressure conditions in the main chamber have priority, i.e. a pressure drop
in the main chamber leads in each case to an expiration of the authorization for
safe operation (motor stop condition) and with sufficient air supply to a new pre-
purging sequence.
