DECLARATION OF
CONFORMITY 00
We the undersigned, ATEQ, manufacturers of the ATEQ EP2P REF : 393.01 declare that it
complies with the requirements of :
- LOW VOLTAGE Directive 93/68/CEE regarding :
standard EN 61 010-1 Safety requirements for electrical equipment for measurement,

control and laboratory use ,
- Directive CEM 89/336/CEE partially modified by Directive CEM 92/31/CEE regarding :
standard EN 50 081-2 Industrial environment emission generic standard ,
standard EN 50 082-2 Industrial environment immunity generic standard ,
standard EN 61 000-4-2 Test for immunity to electrostatic discharges ,
standard EN 61 000-4-3 Test for immunity to electromagnetic fields radiated at radio
frequencies ,
standard EN 61000-4-4 Test for immunity to bursts of rapid electrical transients,
standard EN 61000-4-6 Immunity to conducted disturbances induced by radiofrequency
fields ,
standard EN 61000-4-11 Test for immunity relating to voltage dips, interruptions and
variations in voltage .
This enables ATEQ to guarantee that this instrument may be used in complete safety under
the following environmental conditions :
indoor use,
altitude up to 3000 metres,
ambient operating temperature from 5C to 45 C,
100 % maximum relative humidity without condensation,
fluctuation in the supply network voltage not exceeding 15 % of nominal voltage
temporary overvoltages in accordance with INSTALLATION CATEGORY II as in standard
CEI 664,
degree of pollution 2 as in CEI 664 (only non-conductive pollution. However a temporary
conductivity caused by condensation may occasionally be expected ).
The ATEQ EP2P REF 393.01 is equipped with a protective earth terminal located at the
rear of the instrument, connected to the interior in accordance with safety standards. This
terminal is intended for connection to an external earthing system.
The symbol for this terminal is :

Recommendations for electrical testing

intruments
Preventive measures for high voltage
As the voltage of the test can reach 5 kV, a risk of electric shock has to be taken into account.
ATEQ recommends the following for the operators protection :
the use of a bi-manual remote
contrle with a coincidence relay,
the clear delimitation of the safety

zone (floor marking, warning
light) around the test area or the
use of a protection bell over the test
part.
Precautions on the test environnement
Let the test area dry and clean, free from explosive gaz.
Precautions on the operators
ATEQ recommends that the operators using the instruments should have a suitable
qualification and training with respect to the work bench requirements.
General precautions
Read the users manual before using

the instrument,
the electrical main supply must

absolutely have proper earthing,
all electrical connections coming to

the instrument must be equipped
with a safety system (fuse, cicruit
breaker) adapted to the needs and
adhering to the norms,
disconnect
the
electrical
connections to the equipment for
maintenance,
to
avoid
electromagnetic
interferences, the cable connections
to the instrument should be less
than two meters in lenght,
avoid water spillage in the direction

of the instrument,
do not open the instrument under

power voltage,
ATEQ is at your disposal for any

further information concerning the
use of the instrument under
maximum safety conditions.
We would like to bring to your attention that ATEQ will not be held responsible
for any accident connected to the improper use of the instrument, to the work
bench or to the lack of compliance with safety rules.
ATEQ Company is free from any responsibility for any adjustment of its
instrument which would not have been done by its own technicians.

a commitment to quality ...
ATEQ IS COMMITTED TO REPAIRING INSTRUMENTS
WITHIN 48 HOURS IN ITS OFFICES
(24 HOURS ON DEMAND)
! THE OVERHAUL
ATEQ carries out the overhaul of your instruments at interesting prices.
The overhaul corresponds to the maintenance of the instrument (checking, cleaning, replacing of used parts) as part
of preventive maintenance.
Preventive maintenance is the best way to guarantee reliability and efficiency. It allows the maintenance of a group of
instruments in good operational order and prevent eventual break-downs.
! MAINTENANCE KITS
The ATEQ After Sales Service proposes, two kits destined for the preventive maintenance of the pneumatic circuits of
instruments.
! CALIBRATION
This may be carried out on site or in our offices.
ATEQ is attached to the COFRAC and delivers a certificate following a calibration.
! TRAINING COURSES
In the framework of partnership with our customers, ATEQ offers two types of training in order to optimise the usage
and knowledge of our instruments. They are aimed at different levels of technician:
method / control training,
maintenance / upkeep training.
! A TARGETED TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION
A number of technical documents are at your disposal to allow you to intervene rapidly in the event minor breakdowns:
problem sheets describing and offering solutions to the main pneumatic and electronic problems,
several maintenance manuals.
! A QUALITY GUARANTEE
The instruments are guaranteed for parts and labour in our offices:
2 years for leak detection equipment,
1 year for electrical tests to norms instruments,
1 year for the accessories.
Our After Sales Service is capable of rapidly answering all your needs and queries.

5. INPUT/OUTPUT TIMING CHART

In order to interface the ATEQ EP2P with the equipment (PLC, PC ), the following timing
chart shows the sequencing of the electrical outputs (relay board on Connector J15) in
accordance with the input/output commands on front panel or on the Connector J18 (START,
RESET and sequence number selection).
The timing proposed depends directly on the rotary switch position; this allows selection of
the 2 end of cycles: automatic RESET or STOP.

For safety purposes, the start cycle (START) should be maintained throughout high

Selecting STOP or automatic RESET end of cycle can be done with the help of
the rotary switch function (ref. chapter 4 10). The configuration of the parameters of this
function overrides the position of the hardware component (rotary switch). The hardware
rotary switch allows definition of the nature of the end of cycle signal (maintained or

The chaining function, common to the sequence, allows the chaining of 8 tests conditionally by
using a NON EXCLUSIVE OR :
the passage to the next test is done if at least one of the conditions selected is filled.
Note : when the chaining function is activated this deactivates the chaining function.

RS 232 port to port or RS485 in multi ports.
2. The IMP mode (printing)
This mode sends the results to the RS 232 ports.

to add line feed at the end of sequence. This helps to separates the test blocks,
making the reading of results very easy,
to set conditions for the transmission of results. The condition is same as the

MESSAGES DISPLAYED
At the end of test, the result is displayed on the front panel of the equipment.
1. RESULT INDICATOR
+%-
green indicator PASS :

the test result is good and is between the maximum and minimum cut off which were
programmed.
red indicator :
the test conditions were not respected: the test is abandoned.
red indicator :
1. the test result is above the max cut off of reject level and the test is bad Fail.
2. the test result is below the min cut off of reject level and the test is bad Fail.
Note : the Fail indications are combined on the same output on the on/off output J15 on 3 and 4.
2. PRINTING THE RESULTS

A serial interface port RS 232 is available (J19 connector) for the connection of a printer or a P. C.
At the end of the test the results are transmitted on the serial line. It is possible to separate the results by
adding the line feed (L.F. see Chapter 4, Frame Function).
