Schedule
 
EQUIPMENT:
Equipment and systems covered by this certificate are as follows:
 
The Type 489 Breather Drain is designed to be fitted into the bottom face a flameproof enclosure to allow the enclosure to breathe and drain.

There are 2 sizes: M20 x 1.5mm pitch and M25 x 1.5mm pitch or non metric equivalents as defined in the certification documentation.

The breather drain comprises a brass, steel or stainless steel body with a hexagonal head and a threaded portion 15mm long minimum which forms a threaded flameproof joint with enclosure. In the bore of the body there is a press fit bronze sinter. The hexagonal head of the breather drain has drain holes passing behind the sinter. For these parallel thread versions a nitrile rubber or silicone rubber o-ring set in a groove in the shoulder of the thread ensures efficient sealing onto an associated enclosure.

The breather drain, when fitted in the bottom face of the equipment, is capable of meeting the requirements of IP66

Variation 0.1

The metric male threads may be replaced by 1/2” NPT and 3/4” NPT respectively.

 

 
CONDITIONS OF CERTIFICATION: YES as shown below:
 
1. The breather drain is to be mounted in the bottom face of the enclosure to ensure it is able to breathe and drain effectively when IP66 ingress protection is required.

2. The maximum free volume of the enclosure into which the breather may be fitted is 2.5litres unless tested in accordance with Clause 10 of IEC 60079-1 in the larger enclosure.

3. Only one breather drain shall be fitted into any single flameproof enclosure.

4. The breather drain thread is to be secured in the enclosure with Loctite 638 sealant or a direct equivalent.
