The built-in overvoltage arrester type Bourns 2036-60 has the following characteristic values:
DC Sparkover = 600 V ± 20 % @ 100 V/s
Impulse Sparkover = 850 V @ 100 V/µs
Impulse Sparkover = 1100 V @ 1000 V/µs
Further characteristic data can be found in the data sheet of the Bourns 2036-60.
The voltage resistance against ground is min. 340 Ve.
4 Specicconditionsofuse("X"identication)
The following list describes the special operating conditions of VEGAPULS 6X.
• In the application the following applies to the radar sensors VEGAPULS 6X in the versions with
Aluminium/Titanium:
– Installation must be carried out in such a way that the generation of sparks as a result of impact
and friction processes between Aluminium/Titanium and steel is excluded. This excludes stain-
less steel without rust particles.
• Certain components of the radar sensor VEGAPULS 6X can charge electrostatically. These
include: Plastic housings, non-grounded metal parts, plastic antennas. For details, refer to chap-
ter " Electrostatic charge (ESD)" of these safety instructions.
• To avoid the risk of electrostatic charging of metal parts, the VEGAPULS 6X must be connected
to the potential equalization (transition resistance ≤ 1 MΩ).
• All parts of VEGAPULS 6X in contact with the medium must only be used in such a medium
against which the materials are suciently resistant.
• VEGAPULS 6X with rinsing connection: It must be ensured that the IP67 degree of protection
is provided at the connection to the reux valve when used as category 1/2G equipment. After
removing the reux valve or the rinsing facility on the refölux valve, the opening must be closed
with a suitable screw plug so that the IP67 degree of protection is maintained.
• VEGAPULS 6X with swivelling holder: It must be ensured that the IP67 degree of protection is
maintained when operating as category 1/2G equipment after aligning the antenna using the
swivelling holder and after screwing on the tension ange.
• Ambient temperature
– You can nd the details in chapter " Thermal data" of these safety instructions.
5 Installation
• The installation of the device must only be carried out by qualied personel.
• The sta must be trained in explosion protection and familiar with the relevant valid regulations.
• Make sure when working on the instrument that there is no explosive atmosphere present. The
supply circuits should be voltage-free, if possible.
• Install the instrument in accordance with the manufacturer specication and the applicable
national regulations, e.g. planning and installation in accordance with IEC/EN 60079-14.
• The devices must be integrated into the local potential equalization.

VEGAPULS 6X
66216-EN-220518
• If grounding of the cable screening is necessary, this must be carried out acc. to the valid stand-
ards and regulations, e.g. acc. to IEC/EN 60079-14.
• Close the housing lid (s) up to the stop before starting operating, to ensure the IP protection rat-
ing specied on the type label.

The specied torques are test torques and can only be regarded as reference values. The manufac-
turer's mounting instructions provided must be observed.
If suitable cable glands or cable insertion possibilities not included in the scope of supply are used,
these must be compatible with the threaded openings.

Maintenance
To ensure the functionality of the device, periodic visual inspection is recommended for:
• Secure mounting
• No mechanical damages or corrosion
• Worn or otherwise damaged cables
10 VEGAPULS 6X
66216-EN-220518
• No loose connections of the line connections, equipotential bonding connections
• Correct and clearly marked cable connections
The parts of the VEGAPULS 6X being in contact with ammable media during operation must be
included in the periodic overpressure test of the plant.

6 Operation
• Do not operate the device outside the electrical and thermal specications given in this safety
instruction
• Modications on the instrument can inuence the explosion protection and hence the safety
• Modications must only be carried out by employees authorized by VEGA
• Note the relation between process temperature on the sensor/antenna and the permissible
ambient temperature on the electronics housing. For permissible temperatures, see the respec-
tive temperature tables. See chapter " Thermal data".
• The information on mechanical wear in the operating instructions must be observed
• The continuous operating temperature of the connection cable must be suitable for the tempera-
ture range of the application
• Only original spare parts or spare parts approved for the purpose may be used for repairs
