EQUIPMENT:
Equipment and systems covered by this certificate are as follows:
 
The 8000-FHK/FST Monitor System, also known as the ADS Flowshark Triton (Model Number 8000-FST) or Flowhawk (Model Number 8000-FHK), is a self-contained device that measures/logs depth and velocity in sewer pipes and open channels.  The 8000-FHK/FST Monitor System comprises various, intrinsically safe devices that are individually marked as detailed below:

CONDITIONS OF CERTIFICATION: YES as shown below:
 

1.

Parts of the enclosure may be non-conducting and may generate an ignition-capable level of electrostatic charge under certain extreme conditions.  The user should ensure that the equipment is not installed in a location where it may be subjected to external conditions (such as high-pressure steam), which might cause a build-up of electrostatic charge on non-conducting surfaces.
2.As aluminium is used at the accessible surface of this equipment, in the event of rare incidents, ignition sources due to impact and friction sparks could occur.  This shall be considered when the Flowshark Triton/Flowhawk is being installed, particularly in locations that require equipment with a group II Ga level of protection.
3.The IS Modem DAA is only permitted to be connected to a “Public Switched Telephone Network”.
4.The ADS Model 8000-FHK/ 8000-FST shall only be used in the hazardous area when fully assembled, no maintenance of internal parts or battery changes shall be undertaken unless the unit is located in a safe area.
