8. ATEX SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUSES
All the indications contained in a box with the Ex logo shown on the side refer to explosion risk and
indicate those assemblies produced by SPASCIANI S.p.A. suitable to work in the presence of potentially
explosive atmospheres (check if the "Ex" symbol is present on the device marking). Failure to comply
with the prescribed regulations can lead to serious risks to personal health and damage to property
near the equipment described in this manual.
The RN MINI self-contained breathing apparatuses with the additional
version for use in potentially explosive environments and are certified according to the 2014/34/EU Directive.
They are non-electric devices that can be use in several types of explosive atmosphere as specified in the applied
marking:
II 1G Ex h IIC T6 Ga → non-electrical devices for use in the surface industry, where there is the possibility that
explosive atmospheres due to the presence of gas occur - Zone 0
II 1D Ex h IIIC T85°C Da → non-electrical devices for use in the surface industry, where there is the possibility that
explosive atmospheres due to the presence of dust occur - Zone 20
The ATEX self-contained breathing apparatuses have a label on the backplate (see example B - Atex label) containing
all the markings required by the 2014/34/EU Directive and technical standards of reference (EN ISO 60079-36, EN ISO
60079-37).
