Schedule
 
EQUIPMENT:
Equipment and systems covered by this certificate are as follows:
 

The TERPS 8000 Series model DPS80GC Pressure Sensor is designed to measure the pressure of a process fluid using a resonant, silicon, sensing element, it then provides a digitally encoded (CANbus) electronic signal output.  The electronics are enclosed within a cylindrical, hermetically sealed, metal enclosure that is approximately 81 mm in length with a 25 mm diameter.  The external electrical connections are made via the multi-pin connector of the back end piece which is intended to be attached to a connector and cable that are not covered by this certificate.

The equipment has the following rating: Vmax = 30Vdc.
 
Conditions of Manufacture
 
The Manufacturer shall comply with the following condition of manufacture:
 
1.Each manufactured sample shall be subjected to an electric strength test using a test voltage of 500 Vac applied between the circuit and frame.  Alternatively, a voltage of 20% higher may be applied for 1 s.  There shall be no evidence of flashover or breakdown and the maximum current flowing shall not exceed 5 mA.
2.Each manufactured item shall be inspected to confirm that the welded joints are sufficient to maintain the hermetic sealing of the enclosure.
 
CONDITIONS OF CERTIFICATION: YES as shown below:
 

1

The certificate is applicable to the pressure sensor only; it is therefore the responsibility of the user/installer to ensure that the sensor is safely connected to its supply using cable and a cable connector that comply with the following criteria:
 
iThe cable and cable connector shall be physically suitable for the application, e.g. temperature, size, corrosion, electrical ratings, etc.
iiThe connector shall be suitably certified and meet the requirements of standards IEC 60079-0 and IEC 60079-15.
iiiThe cable and cable connector shall be selected/installed in accordance with local codes of practice e.g IEC 60079-14.
 
2If the sensor is disconnected from the cable connector, then the electrical supply shall be de-energised before separating.
