Galvanic separation – selected aspects of ATEX
Journal Title: Mining – Informatics, Automation and Electrical Engineering - Year 2015, Vol 522, Issue 2
Abstract
The paper systematizes basic information on galvanic separation, describes reasons for its application and presents methods how to conduct it. The authors mentioned selected issues related to galvanic separation in intrinsically safe automatic devices and systems. They also described the requirements of the PN-EN 60079-11 regarding measures that ensure intrinsic safety of particular galvanic separation solutions as well as their impact on proper functioning of separation systems. The paper features the possibilities to limit parameter values of separation systems. These possibilities result from the application of intrinsic-safety measures [2].
