The main control unit is made up of the EPCU (Electronic purge control Unit) and the UIC (User Interface controller).The main control
unit packages the EPCU and UIC into a single mechanical unit. The EPCU contains the terminal board for customer wiring and performs
the power distribution for the rest of the system components (vent, user interface, manifold) and contains the enclosure power relay and
auxiliary alarm relay.
The EPCU controls the primary function of the purge unit: Performs the control of purge gas entering the enclosure, determines when an
adequate amount of air has been passed through the enclosure and adequate pressure exists within the enclosure to allow power to the
enclosure. The EPCU is a dust tight enclosure that allows customer wiring connections through the use of EN 60079-7 (increased
safety) where the wiring terminations are spaced adequately apart to prevent wires from touching. The electronics within the EPCU are
filled with glass beads, using EN 60079-5 (powder fill) as a protection method. I/O powered in a hazardous environment are protected
through EN 60079-11 (intrinsic safety). This includes the UIC, connections for a EPV-6500 vent, a temperature sensor and switch input.
The UIC (user interface controller) is an intrinsically safe device connected to the EPCU via a connector providing power and RS-485
data. It provides the installer/operator a method of setting up and operating the purge controller. As an option, the UIC can be remotely
panel mounted and a plain lid is then used on the EPCU.

The parameters are valid when one of the two conditions below is given:
-The total Li of the external circuit (excluding the cable) is < 1% of the Lo value or
-The total Ci of the external circuit (excluding the cable) is < 1% of the Co value.
The parameters are reduced by 50% when both of the two conditions below are given:
-The total Li of the external circuit (excluding the cable) is > 1% of the Lo value and
-The total Ci of the external circuit (excluding the cable) is > 1% of the Co value.
Vent connections only to be connected to EPV-6500-xx-xx type vent UIC connections only to be connected to 6500-01-UIC-
xxx type user interface controller
RS-485 connection Um = 250V
For ambient temperatures below –10 C and above +60 C use field wiring suitable for both minimum and maximum ambient
temperature.
Mounting instructions
Refer to “Instructions”.
Routine tests
Dielectric strength test of the filling material – EN 60079-5 clause 5.2.2
Dielectric Test – EN 60079-7 clause 7.1
Routine tests for infallible transformers – EN 60079-11 clause 11.2
When the purge control unit is mounted to an enclosure, the complete unit shall be evaluated to EN 60079-2.
The non-metallic touchpad and display does not pose an electrostatic discharge hazard under normal use conditions. Use only
water damp cloth and allow to air dry for cleaning device. Do not use or install in high charge areas.
In hazardous dust environment, regularly remove dust to prevent excessive temperature rise..
Cable glands and/or blanking elements used with this system shall be properly certified for the environment they are being used,.
Only the cable gland size identified for a particular hole shall be fitted to the hole.
Attention: The maximum cable length between the Vent or UIC and the control unit is 245ft (74.6m). This is based on worst case
cable capacitance (Ccable) of 60pf/ft (197pf/m) and worst case cable inductance of 0.2μH/ft (0.66μH/m). Further operational
reductions may apply. See manual.
The relay contact circuits shall be externally fused at installation. Each circuit shall have a fuse that is rated for the voltage type
being used (AC or DC) with a breaking capacity of at least 1500A. The rating of the fuse for the enclosure power connections shall
not exceed 11A. for the Aux relay, it shall not exceed 3A.
