Intended use

The intended use of the Pressure control panel BT2000AC is the expansion of a gas from a gas source and the distribution of the gas with adjustable outlet pressure.

Pressure control panels of type BT2000AC are only suitable for gaseous acetylene (ethyne) of commercial purity. During gas extraction, the maximum extraction quantity prescribed by the gas supplier must not be exceeded, as solvents can otherwise be introduced into the product.

The permissible gas types and pressure ranges are each specified on the label (see "Identification / label").

The equipment versions of the Pressure control panels without electrical components may be used in an explosion hazard zone as they do not have separate ignition sources (ignition hazard assessment according to DIN EN ISO 80079-36).

Pressure control panels with electrical components that are suitable for use in an explosion hazard zone are marked on the label according to EU Directive 2014/34/EU.

To be able to use the Pressure control panels as intended, all persons working with it must comply with the specifications of the relevant user manual.

The area in which hazards can occur when used as intended is the area around the Pressure control panels. The danger zone changes depending on the system status and use.
