<strong>2150EX</strong> Area Velocity <strong>Flow</strong> System<br />

Section 2 Preparation and Installation<br />

2.4.4 Zone 1 Battery <strong>Module</strong> The Model 2196EX is a rechargeable battery module for zones 1<br />

and 2 that offers indication of declining voltage prior to power<br />

interruption, with two batteries permanently contained in an<br />

IP68 enclosure. See Figure 2-6 for X marking and port labeling.<br />

The 2196EX may be safely connected to or disconnected from a<br />

<strong>2150EX</strong> flow module within a hazardous area.<br />

Note<br />

The 2196EX is for use in gas hazard zones 1 and 2. It is not<br />

approved for use in zone 0 installations, in accordance with<br />

IEC 60079-14.<br />

Battery protection<br />

The 2196EX module has no port or latches on the bottom of the<br />

case; therefore, it can only be installed on the bottom of a module<br />

stack. One 2196EX module can power one or two <strong>2150EX</strong> flow<br />

modules with sensors attached.<br />

The 2196EX uses two fully rechargeable, nonreplaceable<br />

lead-acid batteries.<br />

Never operate or store the 2196EX at temperatures above 140 °F<br />

(60 °C). Operate the 2196EX below 86 °F (30 °C) for maximum<br />

service life. For prolonged shelf life, the 2196EX should be stored<br />

at 50 °F (10 °C) or lower in a fully charged state.<br />

The module protects the lead-acid batteries from damage due to<br />

deep discharge by first indicating low voltage through <strong>Flow</strong>link<br />

software, and then by shutting off when the voltage becomes critically<br />

low.<br />
