6、e International System of Units (SI) in particular, in the preparation of instrumentation standards, recommended practices, and technical reports. The Department is further aware of the benefits to U.S.A. users of ISA standards of incorporating suitable references to the SI (and the metric system) i

7、n their business and professional dealings with other countries. Toward this end, this Department will endeavor to introduce SI-acceptable metric units in all new and revised standards to the greatest extent possible. The Metric Practice Guide, which has been published by the Institute of Electrical

8、 and Electronics Engineers as ANSI/IEEE Std. 268-1992, and future revisions, will be the reference guide for definitions, symbols, abbreviations, and conversion factors.It is the policy of ISA to encourage and welcome the participation of all concerned individuals and interests in the development of

16、r Ralston Purina CompanyR. Buschart PC Imax= Maximum current that may be applied safely to the intrinsically safe apparatus;Ci= Internal unprotected capacitance of the intrinsically safe apparatus; andLi= Internal unprotected inductance of the intrinsically safe apparatus.Each channel of associated

17、apparatus is assigned the following parameters:Voc= Maximum open-circuit voltage that can appear across the intrinsicallysafe connections of the associated apparatus under fault conditions;Isc= Maximum short-circuit current that can be drawn from the intrinsicallysafe connections of the associated a

18、pparatus under fault conditions;Ca= Maximum capacitance that can be connected safely to the associatedapparatus; andLa= Maximum inductance that can be connected safely to the associated apparatus.6.1 Entity parameter specificationVmaxand Imaxare specified by the manufacturer of the intrinsically saf

19、e apparatus.They are used for comparison to associated apparatus parameters that have been determined under specified fault conditions. Thus, the values of Vmaxand Imaxdo not necessarily bear any relationship to the normal operating voltage and current of the intrinsically safe apparatus.For the par

20、ameters to be useful, values high enough to allow interconnection with appropriate associated apparatus must be selected. The values of Vmaxand Imaxare limited only to the maximum voltage and current that the intrinsically safe apparatus can receive and remain intrinsically safe, based on stored ene

21、rgy and thermal considerations.12 ISA-TR12.2-1995The Vmaxand Imaxvalues specified for a given intrinsically safe apparatus, taken together and compared to the ignition curves (Reference: ANSI/UL913), may fall in the ignition-capable area of the curve. This is not a problem, since any NRTL-approved a

22、ssociated apparatus to which the intrinsically safe apparatus might be connected will always have Vocand Iscparameters that are not ignition capable. For example, an intrinsically safe apparatus with low Ciand Livalues and properly rated components could realistically have a Vmaxof 45 volts and an I

23、maxof 350 mA. At 45 volts, 350 mA is well into the ignition-capable area of the ignition curve. However, based on the ignition curve for Groups A and B, an associated apparatus with a Vocof 45 volts would have an Iscof no more than 45 mA, and an associated apparatus with an Iscof 350 mA would have a

24、 Vocof no more than 19 volts. The connection of either associated apparatus to the intrinsically safe apparatus would form an intrinsically safe system, since in both cases Vmax Vocand Imax Isc. An additional parameter that optionally may be assigned to either the intrinsically safe apparatus or ass

25、ociated apparatus is Pmax. When assigned to the intrinsically safe apparatus, Pmaxis the maximum power that may be applied safely to the intrinsically safe apparatus. When assigned to the associated apparatus, Pmaxis the maximum power that can be delivered under specified fault conditions by the ass

26、ociated apparatus. The use of the Pmaxparameter can provide additional flexibility in the use of the entity concept. For example, when Pmaxis specified for the intrinsically safe apparatus, the NRTL examination of thermal effects in the intrinsically safe apparatus is conducted using the value of Pm

27、ax. In this case Vmaxand Imaxare not limited by thermal effects, only by stored energy, and thus may have considerably higher limits. When Pmaxis not specified, the Vmaxand Imaxparameters will be used in the examination of thermal effects. This may have the effect of limiting the value of Vmaxand Im

28、axto values that do not allow interconnection with the desired associated apparatus. When Pmaxis specified for an intrinsically safe apparatus, it must be connected to an associated apparatus that has an equal or lower Pmax.7 Entity concept control drawingsEntity parameters may be found on the contr

29、ol drawing supplied by the apparatus manufacturer, along with other pertinent information regarding proper connections, conditions of use, etc. Figure 2 is an example of a control drawing for an intrinsically safe apparatus.

32、ined under the entity concept8 Assessing the intrinsic safety of simple loopsThe interconnection of the apparatus depicted in Figures 2 and 3 is a two-wire loop with grounded returni.e., a transmitter with single-channel grounded zener barrier. This is an example of the simplest and most easily unde

33、rstood combination. Assessing the intrinsic safety of this system is a matter of comparing the entity parameters as follows:Vmaxmust be greater than or equal to Voc;Imaxmust be greater than or equal to Isc;Ci+ Ccablemust be less than or equal to Ca; andLi+ Lcablemust be less than or equal to La.Note

34、 that the capacitance and inductance of the cable must be added to that of the intrinsically safe apparatus. If the actual cable capacitance and inductance values are known, they may be used. If unknown, ANSI/ISA-RP12.6 recommends the following default values:Cable capacitance - 60 pF/foot; and Cabl

35、e inductance - 0.20 H/foot.Inserting the values from Figures 2 and 3, the above conditions are met as follows:Vmax(30 Volts) must be greater than or equal to Voc(28 Volts);Imax(300 mA) must be greater than or equal to Isc(93 mA);Ci(0.02 F) is less than Ca(0.13 F) by 0.11 F; andLi(0.15 mH) is less th

36、an La(3.7 mH) by 3.55 mH.14 ISA-TR12.2-1995A maximum of 1,833 feet of cable (0.11 F/60 pF per foot) can be used due to capacitance limitations and a maximum of 17,750 feet of cable (3.55 mH/0.20 H per foot) can be used due to inductance limitations. The shorter length (1,833 feet) can be used. There

37、fore, the interconnection of these two devices is intrinsically safe with as much as 1,833 feet of cable. 9 Loop operation considerationsThe comparison of entity parameters assures only that the interconnection of the intrinsically safe apparatus and associated apparatus is intrinsically safe. Nothi

38、ng can be inferred from a successful entity parameter match about the operational suitability of the interconnection. The user still must evaluate the operating specifications of each apparatus to ensure that the combination will operate as desired.10 Special considerations for multi-channel associa

39、ted apparatus loopsThere are many intrinsically safe installations for which a single-channel associated apparatus with grounded return is not appropriate. An example of this is when it is not desirable to connect either conductor in a two-wire loop to ground, as is often the case with low-level ana

40、log signals, or in which the intrinsically safe apparatus has multiple connections. In these cases it is necessary to limit the total energy from any combination of conductors entering the hazardous location to an intrinsically safe level. Figures 4 and 5 depict a two-wire loop with neither conducto

41、r connected to intrinsic safety ground. Figure 4 uses two, single-channel associated apparatus, and Figure 5 uses one, two-channel associated apparatus.Figure 4 Two-wire loop with neither conductor connected to ground using two single-channel associated apparatusISB Inc.Model 4564321ISB Inc.Model 12

43、el associated apparatusThe intrinsic safety of the system cannot be assessed if: (1) only the entity parameters of each associated apparatus in Figure 4 are known, or (2) only the entity parameters of each channel of the associated apparatus in Figure 5 are known. An assessment cannot be made becaus

44、e the individual Vocparameters address only the maximum voltage of each conductor with respect to ground. The maximum voltage between the two conductors is not known and cannot be derived from the individual Vmaxparameters. Therefore, it is necessary for the manufacturer of the associated apparatus

45、to provide a control drawing giving the entity parameters for the specific connection.One NRTL, Factory Mutual Research Corporation, uses the parameter Vtto describe the maximum voltage between any two channels, and the parameter Itto describe the sum of the currents from all channels of the given c

46、ombination. Other NRTLs continue to use Vocand Iscand assure that the control drawing is clear as to which combination of terminals each parameter applies. In any case, the user must assure that the entity parameters used are taken from control drawings that correctly describe the loop configuration

47、. Once this is done, the entity concept assessment of the intrinsic safety of the loop is performed in exactly the same manner as previously described. When the maximum voltage and current of the apparatus (as shown in Figure 6) are indicated on the control drawing by Vtand It, these values should b

48、e used in the parameter comparison in lieu of Vocand Isc. However, the Vtand Itparameters are independent from each other and cannot be used to determine the maximum power (Pmax) that can be delivered by the combination of channels. The entity parameter comparisons for the loop shown in Figure 5 are

49、 correctly made using the values from Figures 2 and 6, as follows:Vmax(30 V) is greater than Vt(29.2 V);Imax(300 mA) is greater than It(287 mA);Ci(0.02 F) is less than Ca(0.11 F) by 0.09 F; andLi (0.15 mH) is less than La(0.48 mH) by 0.33 mH.The connection is intrinsically safe with as much as 1,500 feet of cable using the default cable parameter of 60 pF/foot (0.09 F/60 pF per foot = 1,500 feet).ISB Inc.Model 234Non-Hazardous LocationClass I, Division 1, Groups A,B,C,DClass II, Division 1, Groups E,F,GClass III, Division 1Hazardous (Classified) Location11I.S.
