<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 />
