The EAPFX-6 is a rugged call panel, developed for harsh offshore environments and hazardous areas. The antistatic plastic housing withstands corrosion from the most common corrosive gas and compounds found in this type of environment. The access panel features six fully programmable buttons, which can be used to manually initiate fire alarms, gas alarms or any other action in the Exigo system. The access panel is equipped with indicators to show the status of the power supply, call activity and whether a fault is present in the system. The access panel’s buttons features two independent status indicators each, which shows the status of the related button’s function. The access panel is fully digital, and connects to the Exigo system over a single-pair cable. The access panel is fully monitored to ensure detection of any fault which may compromise the system’s functionality.

EAPFX-6.
EAPFX-6

Exigo Industrial Ex Access Panel, 6 Buttons

  • Network access panel for explosive atmospheres
  • Ex m b ib e IIC T4 Gb
  • DSP for acoustic signal processing
  • IP networking and power over Flowire technology
  • Six programmable buttons with individual labels and status indicators
  • Optional button protection covers
  • Indicators for power, call and fault
  • For single or dual systems (A and B systems)


The EAPFX-6 is a rugged call panel, developed for harsh offshore environments and hazardous areas. The antistatic plastic housing withstands corrosion from the most common corrosive gas and compounds found in this type of environment. The access panel features six fully programmable buttons, which can be used to manually initiate fire alarms, gas alarms or any other action in the Exigo system. The access panel is equipped with indicators to show the status of the power supply, call activity and whether a fault is present in the system. The access panel’s buttons features two independent status indicators each, which shows the status of the related button’s function. The access panel is fully digital, and connects to the Exigo system over a single-pair cable. The access panel is fully monitored to ensure detection of any fault which may compromise the system’s functionality.

3 Flowire Connection


Flowire Connection

The EAPFX-6 features two Flowire connectors. Power and signal redundancy can be achieved by utilizing both Flowire connectors in an A-B system configuration. 

Note.PNG Do not connect more than 9 Ex Products to each central Flowire Converter.



Note.PNG Only use one of the Flowire connectors on each Ex product for each central Flowire Converter.



Note.PNG Load sharing power supply must be used for redundant cabling solutions.
          Consult Zenitel before implementing this type of solution.
The main board receives both power and Ethernet signals through two wires. You can connect either A or B for connection to the rest of the system, or both A and B, each to a separate server, in order to achieve redundancy.


Connection of Flowire in a single system.


Connection Flowire in a redundant A–B system.


Central Connection

The central rack must contain:

  • A server
  • A Flowire Converter (FCDC2)
  • A 24V Power Supply Unit (PSU)

In order to connect several Ex Products to one central FCDC2, you also need a terminal block.

Industrial Ex products connected to a central server.


Industrial Ex products connected to two central servers in a redundant A-B system.


Note.PNG Only use 24VDC power supplies sold or recommended by Zenitel for Ex products.

Grounding

Note.PNG To establish explosion-proof protection, it is vital that the grounding of the panel is done according to the following instructions.

All ground and shield cables from the central rack must be terminated on the ground sheet inside the main housing. Grounding must be done according to the IEC 60079-17 standard.

The apparatus can not withstand the electrical strength test with 2 x Um 250V r.m.s. to earth according to clause 6.3.13 of IEC/EN 60079-11: 2011/2012 because the equipment has a connection to earth.

Cable Insertion

Note.PNG Only cables certified for use in explosive atmospheres shall be used.



Note.PNG Only Ex certified cable entries made from plastic shall be used.



Note.PNG The prescribed cable diameters and other guidelines for cable entries used shall be observed.



Note.PNG The relevant mounting directives for the cable entries used shall be observed.



Note.PNG When using cable entries with a degree of protection that differs from the IP protection of the
          Ex Product (see Technical Specifications), the limiting IP protection level shall be adhered to.



Note.PNG When using cable entries with an ambient temperature range that differs from the ambient temperature
          range of the panel or intercom (see Technical Specifications), the limiting temperature range shall be adhered to.



Note.PNG When using cable entries with impact resistance that differs from the impact resistance of the panel
          or intercom, the limiting impact resistance shall be adhered to.



Note.PNG Cable entries must have ingress protection IP54 or higher.



Note.PNG Cable entries must be approved according to the IEC 60079-0:2007 or EN 60079-0:2009 standard or
          later versions of one of these standards.



Note.PNG In order to ensure the required minimum degree of protection, the cable entries must be tightened down securely.



Note.PNG Over-tightening can impair the degree of protection and damage the Ex Product.



Note.PNG When tightening the cap nut of a cable entry, a suitable tool shall be used to prevent the gland from twisting.



Note.PNG When using the Hummel M16 cable gland HSK-K-MZ-Ex included in the delivery, the following limiting factors apply:
          * Lowest temperature: -20°C
          * Impact resistance: 4J (low risk of mechanical danger)
