Explosive atmospheres - Part 28: Protection of equipment and transmission systems using optical radiation
IEC 60079-28:2015 is available as IEC 60079-28:2015 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition. IEC 60079-28:2015 specifies the requirements, testing and marking of equipment emitting optical radiation intended for use in explosive atmospheres. It also covers equipment located outside the explosive atmosphere or protected by a Type of Protection listed in IEC 60079-0, but which generates optical radiation that is intended to enter an explosive atmosphere. It covers Groups I, II and III, and EPLs Ga, Gb, Gc, Da, Db, Dc, Ma and Mb. This standard does not cover ignition by ultraviolet radiation and by absorption of the radiation in the explosive mixture itself. Explosive absorbers or absorbers that contain their own oxidizer as well as catalytic absorbers are also outside the scope of this standard. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition, published in 2006, and constitutes a technical revision. Refer to the Foreword of the document for a complete listing of the technical changes between edition 2.0 and previous edition of the document. Keywords: equipment emitting optical radiation intended for use in explosive atmospheres

L'IEC 60079-28:2015 est disponible sous forme de IEC 60079-28:2015 RLV qui contient la Norme internationale et sa version Redline, illustrant les modifications du contenu technique depuis l'édition précédente. L'IEC 60079-28:2015 spécifie les exigences, les essais et le marquage du matériel émettant des rayonnements optiques destiné à être utilisé dans des atmosphères explosives. Elle couvre également le matériel situé à l'extérieur de l'atmosphère explosive ou protégé par un mode de protection indiqué dans l'IEC 60079-0, mais qui génère des rayonnements optiques qui sont destinés à pénétrer dans une atmosphère explosive. Elle couvre les Groupes I, II et III, et les EPL Ga, Gb, Gc, Da, Db, Dc, Ma et Mb. La présente norme ne couvre pas l'inflammation par rayonnement ultraviolet et par absorption du rayonnement dans le mélange explosif lui-même. Les absorbeurs explosifs ou absorbeurs qui contiennent leur propre oxydant/comburant de même que les absorbeurs catalytiques sont également hors du domaine d'application de la présente norme. Cette deuxième édition annule et remplace la première édition, parue en 2006. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Reportez-vous à l'avant-propos du document pour une liste complète des modifications techniques entre l'édition 2.0 et édition précédente du document. Mots clés: matériel émettant des rayonnements optiques destiné à être utilisé dans des atmosphères explosives.
Eksplozivne atmosfere - 28. del: Zaščita opreme, ki uporablja optično sevanje, in sistemov za prenos optičnega sevanja (IEC 60079-28:2015)
Ta del standarda IEC 60079 določa zahteve, preskušanje in označevanje opreme, ki oddaja optično sevanje in je namenjena za uporabo v eksplozivnih atmosferah. Obravnava tudi opremo, ki se uporablja zunaj eksplozivne atmosfere ali je zaščitena z vrsto zaščite, navedeno v standardu IEC 60079-0, vendar oddaja optično sevanje, ki je predvideno za vhod v eksplozivno atmosfero. Obravnava skupine I, II in III ter ravni zaščite opreme Ga, Gb, Gc, Da, Db, Dc, Ma in Mb. Ta standard vključuje zahteve za optično sevanje z valovno dolžino od 380 nm do 10 μm. Obravnava naslednje vžigalne mehanizme:
• Pri absorbiranju optičnega sevanja se površine ali delci v posebnih okoliščinah segrejejo celo do temperature, pri kateri lahko pride do vžiga v določeni eksplozivni atmosferi.
• V nekaterih redkih posebnih primerih je neposredno usmerjen močan laserski žarek razčlenil plin ter pri tem ustvaril plazmo in povzročil tlačni skok, ki sta sčasoma postala vir vžiga.
Te procese lahko spodbudi trden material v bližini točke razčlenitve.
OPOMBA 1: Glejte točki a) in d) v uvodu.
Ta standard ne obravnava vžiga zaradi ultravijoličnega sevanja in absorbiranja sevanja v sami eksplozivni mešanici. Eksplozivni absorberji ali absorberji, ki vsebujejo lastne oksidante, oziroma katalitični absorberji so zunaj področja uporabe tega standarda. Ta standard določa zahteve za opremo, predvideno za uporabo v atmosferskih pogojih.
Ta standard dopolnjuje in spreminja splošne zahteve standarda IEC 60079-0. Kadar je zahteva iz tega standarda v nasprotju z zahtevo iz standarda IEC 60079-0, ima prednost zahteva iz tega standarda.
Ta standard se uporablja za opremo z optičnimi vlakni in optično opremo, vključno z opremo LED in lasersko opremo, ne uporablja pa se za to opremo:
1) Nerazporejeni viri razpršene svetlobe LED, ki se na primer uporabljajo za prikaz stanja opreme ali osvetlitev ozadja.
2) Vse svetilke (nepremične, prenosne ali premične), ročne in naglavne svetilke, ki so predvidene za napajanje prek omrežja (z galvansko ločitvijo ali brez) ali baterij:
– z viri neprekinjene razpršene svetlobe (za vse ravni zaščite opreme);
– s svetlobnimi viri LED (samo za raven zaščite opreme Gc ali Dc).
OPOMBA 2: Viri neprekinjene razpršene svetlobe LED za ravni zaščite opreme, ki niso Gc ali Dc, niso izključeni iz standarda, in sicer zaradi pomislekov glede morebitnega vžiga v povezavi z visoki ravnjo obsevanja.
3) Viri optičnega sevanja za uporabo ravni zaščite opreme Mb, Gb ali Gc in Db ali Dc, ki ustrezajo omejitvam Class 1 v skladu s standardom IEC 60825-1.
OPOMBA 3: Navedene omejitve Class 1 vključujejo omejitve emisij pod 15 mW, izmerjene na razdalji od vira optičnega sevanja v skladu s standardom IEC 60825-1, pri čemer se ta izmerjena razdalja navezuje na uporabo v eksplozivni atmosferi.
4) Kabli iz enorodnih ali večrodnih optičnih vlaken niso del opreme z optičnimi vlakni, če kabli:
– izpolnjujejo zahteve ustreznih industrijskih standardov skupaj z dodatnimi zaščitnimi ukrepi, kot so odporna zaščita okablenja, voda ali tečišča (za ravni zaščite opreme Gb, Db, Mb, Gc ali Dc);
– izpolnjujejo zahteve ustreznih industrijskih standardov (samo za raven zaščite opreme Gc ali Dc).
5) oprema, zaprta z ohišjem, ki povsem zadržuje optično sevanje in je v skladu z ustrezno vrsto zaščite, kot to zahteva povezana raven zaščite opreme, pri čemer ohišje izpolnjuje enega od teh pogojev:
– ohišje, pri uporabi katerega bi bil vžig zaradi optičnega sevanja v kombinaciji z absorberji v njegovi notranjosti sprejemljiv, npr. ognjevarno ohišje »d« (IEC 60079-1); ali
– ohišje z zaščito proti vdoru eksplozivne plinske atmosfere, npr. ohišje v nadtlaku »p« (IEC 60079-2) ali ohišje z omejeno prepustnostjo »nR« (IEC 60079-15); ali
– ohišje z zaščito proti vdoru eksplozivne prašne atmosfere, npr. protiprašno ohišje »t« (IEC 60079-31); ali
– ohišje z zaščito proti vdoru absorberjev (npr. ohišja IP 6X), v katerem notranji absorberji niso pričakovani.
