If it's got electrical power (e.g. self contained with pumps) try EN60335-2-40. Otherwise, if it's under 0.5bar gauge there's no requirement and if it's more than 0.5bar gauge at any point the Pressure Equipment Directive may apply. Drop me a line direct if you need more help. Rgds Nick.

Thank you, Chris. You expressed my sentiments precisely. While I haven't received a ticket in 24 years (sound of knocking on wood inserted here), there have been many times when I have more than deserved one. Therefore, I think I would pay my expected dues and feel lucky the outcome wasn't wors

yet another HAZLOC question

Hello group - I have another question about equipment for use in hazardous locations. I find no requirements in any of the relevant standards regarding the proper colors of indicators (LED's). For instance, a red LED on a standard-use product could indicate something benign like "battery low" - b

Paul, thanks for the reply. Now, the real stickler for me is that we are trying to leverage an existing non-I-safe design - the entire enclosure is plastic. There are materials available with the correct properties but they are prohibitively expensive, and because the shrink factor is different, w

Maybe the only thing in need of calibration here is our collective conscience and our speedometers. I thought the purpose of laws, radar guns, speeding tickets ... was for the public good, not so that we could invent the most clever way to avoid getting caught. It may be an interesting intellect

Peter: The best chance to win is through a technicality. Look for errors on the officer's report; time, date, road conditions, traffic, license #. Also, there's the possibility that the officer may not show up in court, and you win by default. If you search the web about "police radar", you will
