13 DESCRIPTION OF EQUIPMENT The Universal Gas Sensors are intended to monitor combustible gases. They comprise a detector head assembly and a junction box. The detector head assembly has three variants: the HC Detector Head; the HC Hi-Temp Detector Head; the H2S Detector Head. All the detector head assembly variants utilise the same enclosure with only the internal components and arrangement differing. The sensor heads are manufactured from stainless steel and are cylindrical in shape with a hexagonal shoulder in the middle. The front end of the sensor head enclosure has a 250 m sinter fused into its walls to allow penetration of the surrounding atmosphere and the appropriate presence of the relevant gas to be detected. The rear end of the sensor head contains Stycast 2850 FT Catalyst 11 setting compound through which the equipment wiring passes. The rear end of the sensor head also has a male -14 NPT thread-form to allow the sensor head to be mounted into a GB range component approved increased safety junction box manufactured by Bartec. The junction box contains an MK6.6 component approved increased safety terminal block manufactured by Klippon Microsystems. Design options Alternative setting compound: The HC Hi-Temp Detector Head Assembly utilises Stycast 2762 Catalyst 17. Alternative terminals: The HC Hi-Temp Detector Head Assembly utilises Type Ker-Ex component approved increased safety terminals manufactured by Phoenix Contact GmbH & Co. The HC Hi-Temp Detector Head Assemblies utilises a 07-5180 component approved increased safety junction box manufactured by Bartec. Sira 02ATEX3291 Issue 3

Alternative junction box:

Variation 1 - This variation introduced the following changes: i. To permit the introduction of minor drawing modifications that include additional information that is relevant to other approvals. To permit the removal of entry hole options M25 ISO x 1.5 and PG13.5 from the machined HiTemp Junction Box. The recognition of a drawing replacement to correct a typographical error, drawing number B13-021 shall be replaced by drawing number B13-022.

Variation 2 - This variation introduced the following changes: i.

Variation 3 - This variation introduced the following changes: i.
