1.2. Use in Ex zones
The operator of the systems for use in potentially explosive areas is obliged to carry out a risk assessment. in accordance with the ATEX guideline 2014/34/EU and also to produce an explosion protection document in which appropriate protective measures are defined in order to avoid explosion hazards.

1.3. Intended use
SpillGuard® connect is a mains-powerindependent leak recognition system for detecting leaks of liquids / liquid hazardous substances. It is designed for use in  clean,  uncontaminated spill sumps. The spill sumps should preferably be in metal or non-metallic (plastic) materials. Outdoor use is not permitted. SpillGuard® connect may only be used within the limits for use defi ned on the nameplate. It is suitable for Ex zone 0, due to gases and vapours. SpillGuard® connect may only be used as a precaution with the liquids which have already been positively tested by DENIOS. The list of positively tested substances can be found here:

www.denios.com/spillguard
Substances which are not include din the list must be tested for suitability.

The stability list contains a representative selection of liquid hazardous substances. On request, DENIOS can carry out a functional and exposure test for your substance. The test covers checking the reliable detection of the substance as well as the subsequent maintenance of the visual and audible alarm signals for a period of 24h (exposure test).

1.4. Improper use
The product must not be used for the following purposes:

• Use in spill sumps for storing non- approved media
• Use in potentially explosive areas outside the nameplate limits
• Use in potentially explosive areas caused by dust
• Any use which is not expressly described as permitted in this Quick Guide

The user is liable for any use not in accordance with the intended use!

1.5. Duration of use
The contractual run time for the wireless modem and thus the duration of use of SpillGuard connect® is 5 years. The battery service life has also been designed for this period, with the conditions of use expected being taken into account. If the conditions of use deviate from these e.g. insuffi cient signal cover or too low application temperatures, this will have a negative impact on the service life of the batter and thus the duration of use of SpillGuard® connect. SpillGuard® connect must be replaced following one-off leakage detection and thus contamination with the hazardous substance.

Notice:
This does not apply in the event of a false alarm, which will not have a negative impact on the function of SpillGuard® connect.
The service life of SpillGuard® connect is a maximum of 5 years, after which SpillGuard® connect must be replaced.

The SpillGuard® connect battery must not be replaced!

Requirements for the installation location

SpillGuard® connect is mainly to be used in the base of a spill sump.

The following prerequisites must be met:

• The base of the spill sump must be free of any type of contamination.
• SpillGuard® connect must be aligned parallel to the substrate.
• The installation location should be at the lowest point of the spill sump so that a leak is detected as early as possible.
• The environment for the installation location should be chosen in such a way that there is no shielding of or interference with the wireless signals.
