ABB PGC5000 Series gas chromatographs PGC Certification

PGC Certification

This simple pressurization technique for the

PGC5000 is considered an improvement to the

process gas chromatograph analyzer by allowing for

a continual operation without possible disruption

caused by interlocking the electrical power to the

pressurization system. When operated in a zone 1

area, the user of the PGC5000 analyzer is simply

responsible for:

•    Operating the analyzer within the manufacturer’s

established parameters, as described in the

product manuals and the CE conformity

declaration’s special conditions for safe use

•    Providing a reliable supply of protected air for the

enclosure purge and pressurization system

•    Monitoring the alarm state of the pressurization

system in normal operation

•    Responding to the alarm condition of the

pressurization system, which may require

restoring the supply of protected air or the

removal of electrical power and proper isolation

of remaining hazardous live circuits if the area is

potentially hazardous
