NOTE
Conductors A and B carry the signal from the

electrodes, and C is at the potential of the liquid
(signal common). Shields SA and SB are kept
at the same potentials as the individual electrodes (these are actively driven shields.) This is
done to reduce the effect of the distributed
capacitance of the cable at long cable length.
Note that, since the signals from the individual
electrodes are impedance converted inside the
converter, errors will result if they come in
contact with any other component. Great care
must be taken in the cable end treatment.
IMPORTANT
If the cable is longer than required, cut off any

extra length rather than coiling it up, and terminate the conductors as shown in Figure 4.2.2.
Avoid using junction terminal boards to extend
the cable length, as this will interrupt the shielding.

4.4.4
DC Power Connection
When using DC power as the power supply for the

converter, give attention to the following points.
When connecting to the power supply, observe the

points below. Failure to comply with these warnings
may result in an electric shock or damage to the
instrument.
(1) Connecting Power Supply

IMPORTANT
Do not connect power supply with reversed

polarities.
L/+ terminal: connect +
N/ terminal: connect
WARNING
Ensure that the power supply is OFF in order to

prevent electric shocks.
Ensure the protective grounding terminal is
grounded before turning the power on.
Use insulating sleeve crimp terminals (for 4-mm
screws) for the power supply wiring and protective grounding wiring.
Install an external switch or circuit breaker as a
means to turn the powe off (capacitance; 15A,
conforming to IEC947-1 and IEC947-3). Locate
this switch either near the instrument or in other
places facilitating easy operation. Affix a
Power Off Equipment label to this external
switch or circuit breaker.
IMPORTANT
Do not connect power supply with 100 to 240 V

AC or 100 to 120 V DC in the case of a 24 V
power supply version (power supply code 2).
It will give a damage to the converter.
(2) Required Power Supply Voltages

IMPORTANT
When using a 24 V power supply, the specification for the supply voltage is 24 V (15% to
+20%), but the input voltage of the converter
drops due to cable resistance therefore it must
be used within the following ranges.
Wiring Procedure
1. Turn the instrument's power off.
2. Wire the power supply cable and the functional
grounding cable to the power supply terminals.

WARNING
Be sure to connect the protective grounding of

the AXFA14 with a cable of 2mm2 or larger cross
section in oder to avoid electrical shock to the
operators and maintenance engineers and to
prevent the influence of external noise.
Connect the grounding wire to the
mark.
The grounding should satisfy Class D requirements (ground resistance, 100 or less).
In case of TIIS Flameproof type, the grounding
should satisfy Class C requirements (ground
resistance, 10 or less) or class A requirements
(ground resistance, 10 or less).
For explosion proof type except TIIS, follow the
domestic electrical requirements as regulated in
each country.
Before wiring, be sure that the power supply for

AXFA14 converter has been turned off to
prevent an electrical shock.

In case of explosion proof type for ATEX, FM, CSA,
IECEx and TIIS certification, connect wiring as shown
in the figure below.
IMPORTANT
As this is a transistor contact (insulated type),

give attention to proper voltage and polarity
when wiring.
Do not apply a voltage larger than 30V DC or a
current larger than 0.2A in order to prevent
damage to the instrument.
When input filter constant of the electronic
counter is large in relation to the pulse width,
the signal will decrease and the count will not
be accurate.
If the input impedance of the electronic counter
is large, an induction noise from the power
supply may result in inaccurate counts. Use a
shield cable or sufficiently reduce the input
impedance of the electronic counter within the
electromagnetic flowmeter pulse output specification range.
The active pulse output (Optional code EM)
cannot be used in conjunction with the standard
pulse output.
When the active pulse output (Optional code
EM) is selected, do not be short-circuit between
the DO+ and DO terminals to avoid damaging
the instrument.
When the active pulse output (Optional code
EM) is selected, the range of pulse rate must
be set to 2 pps maximum.
To avoid communication (BRAIN/ HART)
failure, it is recommended to use the shield
cable.
In case of the explosion proof type, the protective

of remote flowtube must be connected to
grounding
a suitable IS grounding system. In that case,
(functional grounding terminal) need not be connected.

BASIC OPERATING PROCEDURES (USING THE DISPLAY UNIT)

The modification of data settings from the display unit can be carried out using the three
setting switches (infra-red switches) - namely, the
,
, and
switches.
The infra-red switches enable the user to set parameters without opening the cover.
This chapter will provide a description of basic data configuration and the methods to be
used with the three setting switches. The AXFA14 or the AXF integral flowmeter can also
be operated using a handheld Brain Terminal (BT200) or a HART Communicator. (Please
refer to Chapter 7 for operation via Brain Terminal and Chapter 8 for operation via HART
Communicator.)
For FOUNDATION Fieldbus protocol, please refer to IM 01E20F02-01E.
For PROFIBUS PA protocol, please refer to IM 01E20F12-01E.
WARNING
Be sure to set parameters as Protect on the write protect function after finish of
parameter setting work.
Under extremely rare case, the infra-red switches may respond unexpectedly in
such conditions as sticking ball of water or extraneous substances on the surface
of display panel glass according to the principle of infra-red switch operation.
Its probability rises in such cases as sticking rain water by storm or other similar
situation and washing up work near flowmeter installation place.
Either to illuminate or stop illuminating the infra-red switches by the flashlight may
cause the mis-reaction.
Refer to Chapter 6 Menu P: Parameter Protection Items and section 10.2.2
how to use the write protect function in detail.
IMPORTANT
Operate the display unit under the condition where direct sunlight, etc... do not
shine to the setting switches directly when the parameter setting operation is
carried out.
NOTE
(1) Always use the setting switches with the cover of the AXFA14 or the AXF
integral flowmeter closed.
(2) Use these switches with them covered by the glass window.
(3) If dirt, dust or other substances surfaces on the display panel glass, wipe
them clean with a soft dry cloth.
(4) The operation with dirty gloves may cause a switch response error.

PARAMETER DESCRIPTION
6.1 Parameters
NOTE
In order to ensure that correct flow rate data can

be acquired, it is crucial that the nominal size,
flow rate span, and meter factor of the combined
remote flowtube are set. In cases where a
remote flowtube is ordered at the same time as
the AXFA14, or where the AXF integral flowmeter is ordered, the nominal size and meter factor
will be set upon shipment from the manufacturing plant, and these will not require additional
setting. If the AXFA14 is ordered separately, the
default value will be set for the meter factor;
accordingly, it will be necessary to change this
setting to the meter factor indicated on your
remote flowtube data plate.
If a flow rate span was specified upon ordering,
this will be set before shipment. If this is not the
case, however, it will be necessary for the
appropriate value to be set by the user.
With the exception of parameters that were specified

by the customer upon ordering, all of the internal
parameters will initially be set to default values.
Actions such as the modification of display details can
then be carried out whenever necessary.
01E20F02-01E.
01E20F12-01E.
IMPORTANT
Make sure to keep the instruments power on at

least for 30 seconds after you set the parameters. If you turn the power off immediately after
the parameters are set, the settings will be
canceled.
6.2 Parameter Lists

Parameter lists are comprised of the following items.

6.4 Parameter Description
[B22: Base Time Unit] Selection of time units for

the flow rate span
This setting is linked with that of parameter C41.
This parameter selects the time units for the flow rate
span; however, if m has been selected for the flow
rate units, /s is automatically set for this parameter.
(1) Menu B: Easy Setup items

Those parameters with a high frequency of use have
been grouped together in Easy Setup. All basic
functions can be controlled using only the parameters
from this block. Parameters from Menu B share
identical names with those from other menus; however,
modification of one such parameter will result in the
other being automatically modified.
[B23: Flow Span] Setting of the flow rate span

The span can be set for the forward flow rate in the
range 0 to 32,000 (although this does not include 0). The
units set using B21/C40: Base Flow Unit and B22/
C41: Base Time Unit will be displayed at this time.
[B10: Language] Selection of language used for the

display unit
This setting is linked with that of parameter H30.
One of the following languages can be selected for the
display unit.
NOTE
If the flow rate units, time units, and flow rate

span are specified upon ordering, these parameters will be setup before shipment; however, if
this is not the case, it will be necessary for the
appropriate values to be set up by the user.

NOTE
Flow rate span is the value for instantaneous

flow rate that corresponds to a current output of
20 mA. The following factors should be taken
into consideration when deciding on the flow rate
span.
In the case of applications with large variations
in flow rate, the maximum flow rate should be
set. If a flow rate in excess of the flow rate
span was to occur, output would be possible
up to an upper limit of 108%, and beyond this,
error would occur. Note that the same applies
to pulse output and totalization.
In the case of applications that have a relatively stable flow rate, a flow rate span of 1.5 to
2.0 times larger than the normal flow rate may
be considered suitable.
The flow rate to be adopted should - upon
conversion to flow velocity - correspond to a
value within the range of 0.1 to 10 m/s. The
flow velocity can be confirmed using sizing data
or with parameter C44: Velocity Check, and in
the latter case, the value obtained when span is
converted to flow velocity will be displayed.
Regardless of the position of the decimal point,
the largest value that can be set on the display
unit is 32,000. Furthermore, it is not possible to
set a number of 4 or greater for the highestorder digit. Similarly, if 3 is set for this highestorder digit, it will not be possible to set a

[B20: Flow Damping] Setting of the damping time

constant
The damping time constant should be modified to
suppress an output fluctuation or to change the response time. This time constant has an effect on analog
output and on the flow rate display (i.e., actual instantaneous flow rate, %, current value), and in addition, it
also affects pulse output and totalization. However,
when No Damping has been set for J24: T/P Damp
Select, there will be no effect on pulse output or
totalization.
* Time constant: The time required for the output to
reach 63.2% from 0%.
[B21: Base Flow Unit] Selection of flow units for the
flow rate span
This parameter selects the flow units for the flow rate
span. (In case of mass flow, the setting of density is
also required. Refer to C46: Mass Flow Density
for more details.)

[B24: Flow Decimal Pnt] Setting of the decimal

point position for the instantaneous flow rate
This parameter sets the position of the decimal point
for instantaneous flow rate values in terms of the
number of digits. When set using Auto, the decimal
point position will be automatically determined in
accordance with the setting value for B23/C42: Flow
Span as shown below.

Decimal point position: 2 digits
90 < Flow Span 900 Decimal point position: 1 digit

[B31: Total Scale] Setting of the totalization scale

This setting is linked with that of parameter D11.
The flow rate is totalized in individual counts in
accordance with this parameters setting. If 0 is
selected, it indicates that the totalization function is not
to be used.
NOTE
If a totalization scale is specified upon ordering,

this parameter is set up before shipment; however, if this is not the case, it will be necessary
for the appropriate value to be set up by the
user.
When an item other than Auto is set, the selected

number of digits for the decimal point position is used.
NOTE
By setting the totalization scale, the totalized

value is displayed on the display unit. The
totalization scale is determined in accordance
with the settings of B30/D10: Total Unit and
B31/D11: Total Scale.
The maximum value that can be displayed is
99999999, and if this is exceeded, the value 0
is counted once again. However, counting
stops at 99999999 when the totalization switch
function is used.
If multiple ranges are being used, the flow rate
span for the smallest range becomes the
standard for the D13: Total Low Cut setting
value.
Totalization for the reverse flow rate and for the
differential flow rate is carried out only when
Fwd/Rev Ranges is selected for F20: DO
Function or F21: DIO Function.
The totalized units are indicated on the display
unit when B31/D11 is 0.001, 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10,
100, or 1000. In the case of other setting
values, the totalized units are not indicated.
With the decimal point removed, 6 digits are available

for the instantaneous flow rate value, and display is
possible up to 999,999. If an overflow occurs as a
result of the setting adopted for decimal point position,
the warning 84: Disp Over Wng will be displayed to
provide notification of this condition.

totalized units in the Display Mode.
Setting of totalization scale is not possible
when specific selections have been made for
B30/D10: Total Unit, B31/D11: Total Scale,
and B23/C42: Flow Span. In such a case, a
setting alarm will be displayed, and parameters
should be changed in accordance with the
instructions given.
NOTE
If a pulse scale is specified upon ordering, this

parameter is setup before shipment; however, if
appropriate value to be setup by the user.
NOTE
By setting the pulse scale, pulse output performs. The pulse scale is determined in accordance with the settings of B32/E10: Pulse Unit
and B33/E11: Pulse Scale.
If multiple ranges are being used, the flow rate
span for the smallest range becomes the
standard for the E13: Pulse Low Cut setting
value.
Pulse output for the reverse flow rate is carried
out only when Fwd/Rev Ranges is selected
for F20: DO Function or F21: DIO Function.
Setting of pulse scale is not possible when
specific selections have been made for B32/
E10: Pulse Unit, B33/E11: Pulse Scale, E12:
Pulse Width and B23/C42: Flow Span. In
such a case, a setting alarm will be displayed,
and parameters should be changed in accordance with the instructions given.
Example 1: To perform pulse output in 1 Ml
(mega-liter) steps with flow rate
span = 100 m3/h
Since 1 Ml = 103 x m3, k Unit/P is

outside these limits, then the corresponding limit is
adopted as the current flow rate value. In addition, if
signals which breach the limits in the same direction
occur over multiple samples (i.e., within the dead
time), it is concluded that the corresponding signal is
a flow rate signal.
[J20: Flow Direction] Setting of the flow direction

Upon shipment from the manufacturing plant, the
system is setup such that flow in the same direction, as

6.6 Precautions for the

AXF Integral Flowmeter
NOTE
Setting the meter factor

Meter factors for the AXF integral flowmeter
Although the AXF integral flowmeters software

configurations are the same as the AXFA14, care must
be taken in setting the following parameters:
0038
[C31: Nominal Size Unit] Setting of the nominal

size units
[C32: Nominal Size] Setting of the nominal size
NOTE
The nominal size unit, nominal size and meter

factor have been properly set upon shipment
from the manufacturing plant. Do not change
these parameters.
[C21: Low MF] Setting of the low-frequency meter

factor
[C22: High MF] Setting of the high-frequency meter
factor
[C23: Low MF (EDF)] Setting of the low-frequency
meter factor for enhanced DF (i.e., enhanced dual
frequency excitation)
[C24: High MF (EDF)] Setting of the high-frequency
meter factor for enhanced DF (i.e., enhanced dual
frequency excitation)
F0623.EPS
(1) Confirm that the meter factors indicated on

your AXF integral flowmeters data plate has
been set to the parameters.
(2) The meter factors are crucial in ensuring that
the electromotive force is correctly in proportion to the flow velocity and are determined
at the manufacturing plant by actual-flow
calibration.
NOTE
For the hardware configuration of the AXF

integral flowmeter, see the users manual of the

Configuration Tool
The HART Configuration Tool can interface with the AXFA14 from the control room, the
AXFA14 site, or any other wiring termination point in the loop, provided there is a
minimum load resistance of 250 V between the connection and the receiving instrument.
To communicate, it must be connected in parallel with the AXFA14, and the connections
must be non-polarized. Figure 8.2.1 illustrates the wiring connections for a direct interface
at the AXFA14 site. The HART Configuration Tool can be used for remote access from

ACTUAL OPERATION
After you have installed the flowtube into the process

piping, wired the input/output terminals, set up the
required parameters, and performed a pre-operation
zero adjustment, the magnetic flowmeter should output
an accurate flow signal from its terminals as soon as
flow of the fluid to be measured begins. This section
describes zero adjustment and the corresponding
procedures.
01E20F02-01E.
01E20F12-01E.
9.1 Pre-operation Zero

Adjustment
Zero adjustment is carried out to ensure that the output
for zero flow is 0% (i.e., 4 mA). Although adjustment
to zero is performed at the manufacturing plant prior to
shipment, this procedure must be carried out once
again following the installation of piping in order to
match the magnetic flowmeter to its operating conditions.
This section describes the zero adjustment procedure
using display unit switches from the converter and
using the external status input; accordingly, one of
these methods should be selected and implemented.
IMPORTANT
Zero adjustment should be carried out before

actual operation. Note that setting and update
functions cannot be carried out during this
procedure (i.e., for approximately 30 seconds).
Zero adjustment should only be carried out
when the flowtube has been filled with
measurement fluid and the fluid velocity is
completely zero by closing the valve.
Each time that the fluid being measured is
changed, it will be necessary for zero adjustment to be carried out for the new fluid.

9.1.1
Zero Adjustment Using Display Unit Switches

This section describes the procedure for zero adjustment using the display unit switches.
(For more details regarding setting methods using these switches, refer to Chapter 5: Basic
Operating Procedures.)
The parameters for zero adjustment are B50/M10: Auto Zero Exe (and either of these
can be used to carry out this procedure). For more details regarding these parameters, refer
to Chapter 6: Parameter Description.
The parameter M10: Auto Zero Exe will be used in the following description.

9.1.2
Zero Adjustment via External Status Input

This section describes the procedure for zero adjustment via external status input. (For
more details regarding external status input, refer to Chapter 6: Parameter Description.)
CAUTION
In certain cases where the multiple range function is being used with other status
inputs, it may not be possible to perform settings for automatic zero adjustment.
For more details, refer to the description of multiple ranges from Chapter 6:
Parameter Description.
In order to carry out zero adjustment via external status input, it will be necessary to set
Ext Auto Zero (I) using F21: DIO Function. The following describes the setting
procedure:

10.2.1 Setting of Burnout Switch

The burnout function sets the direction of current
output in situations where the CPU has become
damaged. Upon shipment from the manufacturing
plant, the burnout direction is set to High (i.e., 25 mA);
however, in cases where the optional code C1 has been
specified, the output direction will be set to Low
(i.e., 0 mA).
10.2.2 Setting of Write Protect Switch

By setting the write protect function to Protect it is
possible to prevent the overwriting of parameters.
Write protection can be carried out using either the
hardware switch on the CPU board (i.e., Switch 2) or
software parameter settings. If either of these items is
set to Protect, the overwriting of parameters will be
prohibited.
Modification of the burnout direction must be carried

out using the setting switch from the amplifiers CPU
board (i.e., Switch 1) (See Figure 10.2.1).

INSTALLATION AND OPERATING PRECAUTIONS FOR TIIS FLAMEPROOF EQUIPMENT
INSTALLATION AND OPERATING PRECAUTIONS FOR

TIIS FLAMEPROOF EQUIPMENT
Apparatus Certified Under Technical Criteria
(IEC-compatible Standards)
1. General
tion is of completely enclosed type and its enclosure shall

endure explosive pressures in cases where explosive gases or
vapours entering the enclosure cause explosion. In addition,
the enclosure construction shall be such that flame caused by
explosion does not ignite gases or vapours outside the
enclosure.
The following describes precautions on electrical apparatus

of flameproof construction (hereinafter referred to as
flameproof apparatus) in explosion-protected apparatus.
Following the Labour Safety and Health Laws of Japan,
flameproof apparatus is subjected to type tests to meet either
the technical criteria for explosionproof electrical machinery
and equipment (standards notification no. 556 from the
Japanese Ministry of Labour) (hereinafter referred to as
technical criteria), in conformity with the IEC Standards, or
the Recommended Practice for Explosion-Protected
Electrical Installations in General Industries, published in
1979. These certified apparatus can be used in hazardous
locations where explosive or inflammable gases or vapours
may be present.
In this manual, the word "flameproof" is applied to the

flameproof equipment combined with the types of protection
"e", "o", "i", and "d" as well as flameproof equipment.
3. Terminology
(1) Enclosure
An outer shell of an electrical apparatus, which encloses live
parts and thus is needed to configure explosion-protected
construction.
Certified apparatus includes a certification label and an

equipment nameplate with the specifications necessary for
explosion requirements as well as precautions on explosion
protection. Please confirm these precautionary items and use
them to meet specification requirements.
(2) Shroud
A component part which is so designed that the fastening of
joint surfaces cannot be loosened unless a special tool is
used.
For electrical wiring and maintenance servicing, please refer

to Internal Wiring Rules in the Electrical Installation
Technical Standards as well as USERS GUIDELINES for
Electrical Installations for Explosive Gas Atmospheres in
General Industry, published in 1994.
(3) Enclosure internal volume

This is indicated by: the total internal volume of the
flameproof enclosure minus the volume of the internal
components essential to equipment functions.
To meet flameproof requirements, equipment that can be

termed flameproof must:
(4) Path length of joint surface

On a joint surface, the length of the shortest path through
which flame flows from the inside to outside of the flameproof enclosure. This definition cannot be applied to threaded
joints.
(1) Be certified by a Japanese public authority in accordance

with the Labour Safety and Health Laws of Japan and
have a certification label in an appropriate location on its
case, and
(2) Be used in compliance with the specifications marked on
its certification label, equipment nameplate and precautionary information furnished.
(5) Gaps between joint surfaces

The physical distance between two mating surfaces, or
differences in diameters if the mating surfaces are cylindrical.
2. Electrical Apparatus of Flameproof Type of Explosion-Protected Construction
Note: The permissible sizes of gaps between joint surfaces, the path
length of a joint surface and the number of joint threads are
determined by such factors as the enclosures internal
volume, joint and mating surface construction, and the
explosion classification of the specified gases and vapours.
Electrical apparatus which is of flameproof construction is

subjected to a type test and certified by the Japanese Ministry
of Labour aiming at preventing explosion caused by electrical
apparatus in a factory or any location where inflammable
gases or vapours may be present. The flameproof construc-
EX-B03E
4. Installation of Flameproof Apparatus
Specific cables shall be used as recommended by the

USERS GUIDELINES for Electrical Installations for
Explosive Gas Atmospheres in General Industry,
published in 1994.
In necessary, appropriate protective pipes (conduit or
flexible pipes), ducts or trays shall be used for preventing the cable run (outside the cable glands) from
damage.
To prevent explosive atmosphere from being propagated
form Zone 1 or 2 hazardous location to any different
location or non-hazardous location through the protective
pipe or duct, apply sealing of the protective pipes in the
vicinity of individual boundaries, or fill the ducts with
sand appropriately.
When branch connections of cables, or cable connections
with insulated cables inside the conduit pipes are made,
a flameproof or increased-safety connection box shall be
used. In this case, flameproof or increased-safety cable
glands meeting the type of connection box must be used
for cable connections to the box.
(1) Installation Area

Flameproof apparatus may be installed, in accordance with
applicable gases, in a hazardous area in Zone 1 or 2, where
the specified gases are present. Those apparatus shall not be
installed in a hazardous area in Zone 0.
Note: Hazardous areas are classified in zones based upon the
frequency of the appearance and the duration of an explosive
gas atmosphere as follows:
Zone 0: An area in which an explosive gas atmosphere is
present continuously or is present for long periods.
Zone 1: An area in which an explosive gas atmosphere is
likely to occur in normal operation.
Zone 2: An area in which an explosive gas atmosphere is not
likely to occur in normal operation and if it does
occur it will exist for a short period only.
(2) Environmental Conditions

The standard environmental condition for the installation of
flameproof apparatus is limited to an ambient temperature
range from 20C to +40C (for products certified under
Technical Criteria). However, some field-mounted instruments may be certified at an ambient temperature up to
+60C as indicated on the instrument nameplates. If the
flameproof apparatus are exposed to direct sunshine or
radiant heat from plant facilities, appropriate thermal
protection measures shall be taken.
(2) Flameproof Metal Conduit Wiring

For the flameproof metal conduit wiring or insulated
wires shall be used as recommended by the USERS
GUIDELINES for Electrical Installations for Explosive
Gas Atmospheres in General Industry, published in
1994.
For conduit pipes, heavy-gauge steel conduits conforming to JIS C 8305 Standard shall be used.
Flameproof sealing fittings shall be used in the vicinity
of the wiring connections, and those fittings shall be
filled with sealing compounds to complete sealing of the
apparatus. In addition, to prevent explosive gases,
moisture, or flame caused by explosion form being
propagated through the conduit, always provide sealing
fittings to complete sealing of the conduit in the
following locations:
(a) In the boundaries between the hazardous and nonhazardous locations.
(b) In the boundaries where there is a different classification of hazardous location.
For the connections of the apparatus with a conduit pipe
or its associated accessories, G-type parallel pipe threads
(JIS B 0202) shall be used to provide a minimum of
five-thread engagement to complete tightness. In
addition, since these parallel threads do not have sealing
property, nonhardening sealant such as liquid gaskets
shall thus be applied to those threads for ensuring
waterproofness.
If metal conduits need flexibility, use flameproof flexible
fittings.
5. External Wiring for Flameproof

Apparatus
Flameproof apparatus require cable wiring or flameproof
metal conduits for their electrical connections. For cable
wiring, cable glands (cable entry devices for flameproof type)
to wiring connections shall be attached. For metal conduits,
attach sealing fittings as close to wiring connections as
possible and completely seal the apparatus. All non-live
metal parts such as the enclosure shall be securely grounded.
For details, see the USERS GUIDELINES for Electrical
Installations for Explosive Gas Atmospheres in General
Industry, published in 1994.
(1) Cable Wiring

For cable wiring, cable glands (cable entry devices for
flameproof type) specified or supplied with the apparatus
shall be directly attached to the wiring connections to
complete sealing of the apparatus.
Screws that connect cable glands to the apparatus are
those for G-type parallel pipe threads (JIS B 0202) with
no sealing property. To protect the apparatus from
corrosive gases or moisture, apply nonhardening sealant
such as liquid gaskets to those threads for waterproofing.
EX-B03E
6. Maintenance of Flameproof
Apparatus
that the apparatus must always be restored to its original

condition). If you attempt to repair the flameproof
apparatus, company-specified components shall be used.
(d) Before starting to service the apparatus, be sure to check
all parts necessary for retaining the requirements for
flameproof apparatus. For this, check that all screws,
bolts, nuts, and threaded connections have properly been
tightened.
To maintain the flameproof apparatus, do the following. (For

details, see Chapter 10 MAINTENANCE OF EXPLOSIONPROTECTED ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION in the
USERS GUIDELINES for Electrical Installations for
Explosive Gas Atmospheres in General Industry.)
(3) Prohibition of specification changes and

modifications
(1) Maintenance servicing with the power on.

Flameproof apparatus shall not be maintenance-serviced with
its power turned on. However, in cases where maintenance
servicing is to be conducted with the power turned on, with
the equipment cover removed, always use a gas detector to
check that there is no explosive gas in that location. If it
cannot be checked whether an explosive gas is present or not,
maintenance servicing shall be limited to the following two
items:
Do not attempt to change specifications or make modifications involving addition of or changes in external wiring
connections.
7. Selection of Cable Entry Devices for Flameproof Type
(a) Visual inspection

Visually inspect the flameproof apparatus, metal
conduits, and cables for damage or corrosion, and other
mechanical and structural defects.
(b) Zero and span adjustments
These adjustments should be made only to the extent
that they can be conducted from the outside without
opening the equipment cover. In doing this, great care
must be taken not to cause mechanical sparks with tools.
CAUTION
The cable glands (cable entry devices for flameproof
type) conforming to IEC Standards are certified in
combination with the flameproof apparatus. So,
Yokogawa-specified cable entry devices for flameproof
type shall be used to meet this demand.
(2) Repair
If the flameproof apparatus requires repair, turn off the power
and transport it to a safety (non-hazardous) location. Observe
the following points before attempting to repair the apparatus.
References:
(1) Type Certificate Guide for Explosion-Protected Construction Electrical Machinery and Equipment (relating
to Technical Standards Conforming to International
Standards), issued by the Technical Institution of
Industrial Safety, Japan
(2) USERS GUIDELINES for Electrical Installations for
Explosive Gas Atmospheres in General Industry (1994),
issued by the Japanese Ministry of Labour, the Research
Institute of Industrial Safet
(a) Make only such electrical and mechanical repairs as will

restore the apparatus to its original condition. For the
flameproof apparatus, the gaps and path lengths of joints
and mating surfaces, and mechanical strength of
enclosures are critical factors in explosion protection.
Exercise great care not to damage the joints or shock the
enclosure.
(b) If any damage occurs in threads, joints or mating
surfaces, inspection windows, connections between the
transmitter and terminal box, shrouds or clamps, or
external wiring connections which are essential in
flameproofness, contact Yokogawa Electric Corporation.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to re-process threaded connections or
refinish joints or mating surfaces.
(c) Unless otherwise specified, the electrical circuitry and

internal mechanisms may be repaired by component
replacement, as this will not directly affect the requirements for flameproof apparatus (however, bear in mind
