Monitoring Not required
• Enclosure purging monitored

Regular leak test as described in the man‐
ual
1) The above-mentioned purging monitoring in py mode is permissible according to the certicate, but is explicitly not
recommended by SIEMENS. As a manufacturer,
we generally recommend the use of a purge monitor in px operation. The py operation requires immediate intervention by the
operator in the event of
failure or insucient purging, since the Ex p system only provides an alarm and no automatic shutdown.
2) For the measurement of ammable gases, a px monitoring system (option E72) is recommended, since with py purge
monitoring it must be ensured that
remedial action is taken immediately in the event of malfunction.
