mental conditions. The glass reinforced polyester enclosures are suitable for use offshore or onshore, where light weight combined with corrosion resistance is required. The beacon housing is manufactured completely from a U.V. stable, glass reinforced polyester. Stainless steel screws and mounting bracket are incorporated ensuring a totally corrosion free product. Units can be painted to customer specification and supplied with indentification labels. 2.0 INSTALLATION General When installing and operating explosion-protected equipment, requirements for selection, installation and operation should be referred to eg. IEE Wiring Regulations and the ‘National Electrical Code’ in North America. Additional national and/ or local requirements may apply. Ensure that all nuts, bolts and fixings are secure. Ensure that only the correct listed or certified stopping plugs are used to blank off unused gland entry points and that the NEMA/IP rating of the unit is maintained. MEDC recommend the use of a sealing compound such as HYLOMAR PL32 on the threads of glands and stopping plugs in order to maintain the IP rating of the unit. The unit can either be directly mounted using the inserts moulded into the back of the enclosure (standard), or a back- strap (optional) can be fixed to the base of the unit thus giving an optional mounting position for when direct mounting is deemed unsuitable. There are 2 off M5 inserts in the base of the enclosure for direct mounting. Please note: for direct mounting, observe the following formula to determine length of fixing screw required:- Length of screw = Thickness of mounting surface + 10mm There are 2 off Ø8.5mm mounting holes in the optional backstrap. These have been designed to accept an M8 screw or bolt MEDC recommend the use of stainless steel screws. Cable Termination CAUTION: Before removing the cover assembly, ensure that the power to the unit is isolated. Unscrew and remove the 6 off M5 screws (4.0mm hexagon key) holding the cover assembly to the base. Keep in a safe, accessible location as they are non-captive. Twist the cover assembly gently clockwise and anti-clockwise, whilst pulling it away from the base. Remove to gain access to the interior. Cable termination should be in accordance with specifications applying to the required application. MEDC recommends that all cables and cores should be correctly identified. Please refer to the wiring diagram provided with the product. Ensure that only the correct listed or certified cable glands are used and that the assembly is shrouded and correctly earthed. All cable glands should be of an equivalent NEMA/IP rating to that of the unit and integrated with the unit such that this rating is maintained. The internal earth terminal, where fitted, must be used for the equipment grounding connection. Once termination is complete, carefully replace the cover assembly back onto the base, avoiding damage to the mating surfaces. Replace the 6 off M5 screws (4.0mm A/F hexagon key) into the holes in the cover assembly and tighten evenly. Ensure the O-ring is seated correctly on the cover during re-assembly. Ensure the required maximum gap of 0.2mm is maintained between the cover and the base once assembled. © MEDC 2014 12/14

ringing signal if requested when ordered. 4.0 MAINTENANCE During the working life of the unit, it should require little or no maintenance. GRP will resist attack by most acids, alkalis and chemicals and is as resistant to concentrated acids and alkalis as most metal products. However, if abnormal or unusual environmental conditions occur due to plant damage or accident etc., then visual inspec- tion is recommended. If the unit requires cleaning, then only clean exterior with a damp cloth to avoid electro-static charge build up. Replacement of the xenon tube (see below) can be carried out by competent site personnel. Other repairs should be undertaken by returning the unit to MEDC or by an authorised repairer of Ex equipment. If a unit fault should occur, then the unit can be repaired by MEDC. All parts of the unit are replaceable. If you acquired a significant quantity of units, then it is recommended that spares are also made available. Please discuss your requirements with the Technical Sales Engineers at MEDC. Removing / replacing xenon tube CAUTION: Before removing the cover assembly, ensure that the power to the unit is isolated. Unscrew and remove the 6 off M5 (4.0mm A/F hexagon key). Keep in a safe, accessible location as they are non- captive Twist the cover assembly gently clockwise and anti-clockwise, whilst pulling it away from the base. Remove to gain access to the interior. Unscrew and remove the two M3 nuts and washers holding the circuit board to the cover pillars. Keep in a safe acces- sible location. Lift the electronics assembly away from the support pillars, thus exposing the xenon tube. Remove the old tube by unscrew- ing the terminal block fixings. The replacement tube can now be fitted (see xenon tube installation sheet, which is supplied with the replacement tubes) Replace the electronics assembly onto the support pillars and secure using the two off M3 nuts and washers. Ensure the retaining strap is fitted to one of the electronics assembly mounting pillars during re-assembly. Carefully replace the cover assembly back onto the base, avoiding damage to the mating surfaces. Replace the 6 off M5 screws (4.0mm A/F hexagon key) into the holes in the cover assembly and tighten evenly. Ensure the O-ring is seated correctly on the cover during re-assembly. Ensure the required maximum gap of 0.2mm is maintained between the cover and the base once assembled GENERAL ARRANGEMENT 2 M5 X 10 ±1 DIRECT MOUNTING HOLES 2 FIXING HOLES ø8.5 ± 1 OPTIONAL GUARD ENTRY 'R' ENTRY «�L�» 12/14 © MEDC 2014
