1、Explosive atmospheresPart 10-1: Classification of areas Explosive gas atmospheresBS EN 60079-10-1:2015Incorporating corrigendum December 2016BSI Standards PublicationBS EN 60079-10-1:2015 BRITISH STANDARDNational forewordThis British Standard is the UK implementation of EN 60079-10-1:2015. It is ide

2、ntical to IEC 60079-10-1:2015, incorporating corrigendum November 2015. It supersedes BS EN 60079-10-1:2009 which is withdrawn.IEC corrigendum November 2015 corrects Equation B.6.BSI, as a member of CENELEC, is obliged to publish EN 60079-10-1 as a British Standard. However, attention is drawn to th

3、e fact that during the documents development, the UK committee voted against its approval as a European Standard.The UK Committee has some concerns that the methodologies in the Informative Annexes C and D for determining zone type and extents have not been appropriately validated as required in Sec

4、tion 5.2., and suggest users consider the below issues when working with this standard: The ventilation rate (volume of air per unit time) relative to the releaserate of the flammable substance is the most important factor thatdetermines the ability of a release in an enclosure to become dilute. The

5、ventilation velocity has only a secondary effect: the UK Committeesview is that this is not adequately reflected in the standard. The extent of flammable gas or vapour from its point of release isdependent on the material being released, the release conditions(e.g. hole size and pressure) and the en

6、vironment into which it isbeing released (e.g. ventilation rate or weather conditions). Variousscientificallybased approaches exist for determining these zoneextents, including industry specific standards and dispersion models. EN 60079-10-1 places no limitations on a Zone 2 NE classification.Howeve

7、r the UK committee believes a Zone 2 NE classification wouldonly be applicable for a source pressure less than 10 barg which is thelimit accepted in other industry based guidance. For assessment of pool evaporation from volatile hydrocarbons, otherstandards and sources of information need to be used

8、 to cross-checkthe results to ensure that risks are reduced to as low as reasonablypracticable.The UK Committee will revisit these issues during the next revision cycle of this standard, rather than publishing a national annex as previously stated.The UK participation in its preparation was entruste
