Purging and shutdown functions
- Monitoring, shutdown functions and gas supply are specified for the selected instrument configuration.
- During a safety-related shutdown, the relevant components are de-energised and the rotor coasts unbraked to a standstill.
- Bypass purging during a power failure requires the corresponding instrument configuration and an available gas supply.
Suitability for the sample medium and operating conditions is assessed before configuration approval. Nitrogen purging alone does not constitute explosion protection certification.
Images and scope of supply: The images show a HiCen TR configuration example and its purge/monitoring unit. Gas supply, accessories and instrument configuration are specified in the quotation. The images do not establish suitability for flammable or explosive media.
