TYEA-6ZA Pre-start Purging System Complete Explosion-proof Pre-purging Device for Motor Enclosure


Specification Description of Control Unit and Pressure Relief Unit (See Appendix Table 2)
1. TYEA-2ZA (Low-flow Model, for 500/1000/1500 NL/min purge demand)
2. TYEA-6ZA (Medium-flow Model, for 2000~6000 NL/min purge demand)
3. TYEA-8ZA (High-flow Model, for 7000~12000 NL/min purge demand)
All models support vertical fixed installation, with anti-corrosion 316 stainless steel cabinets and customizable air port specifications. Covering the full flow range of 500-12000 NL/min, they are widely used to support various increased safety explosion-proof motors in Zone 2 hazardous chemical and petrochemical sites.
Installation Diagram
The system installation components are shown in the figure below, which must comply with the specific requirements specified in the product operation manual.
- Rigid metal pipes are recommended for air piping connections. The air supply pipes and fittings are specified as follows:
- Model 2ZA: 3/4″ NPT(F) threaded connection, minimum air supply pipe size 20mm (3/4″);
- Model 6ZA: 1″ NPT(F) threaded connection, minimum air supply pipe size 25mm (1″);
- Model 8ZY: 2″ NPT(F) threaded connection, minimum air supply pipe size 50mm (2″);
Gas signal pipe: 1/8″ NPT(F).
-
The pressure relief unit shall be properly positioned with the exhaust port facing downward.
-
The power supply for remote startup of the purging system must be 24V DC, with power connected to terminal No.1 and No.2.


Indication and Control
The system operating status is displayed locally via indicator lights on the control unit; status signals are remotely transmitted through dry switch contacts.
Local Indication for TYEA-EA:
Red / Green: Power Disconnected / Purging Completed
Black / Yellow: System Timed Purging Inactive / System Timed Purging In Progress
Remote Control Wiring
- Terminals 1-2 connect to 24V DC for remote solenoid valve startup (outputs a 2–5 second current pulse to actuate the solenoid valve).
- Terminals 3-4 close during system purging and open under all other operating conditions.
- Terminals 6-7 close once purging finishes, and remain closed until the air supply is cut off or a new purging cycle restarts.

Model Code Definition & Basic Technical Parameters


Tovent TYEA increased safety purge system is developed exclusively for increased safety explosion-proof motors, with full unit explosion-proof mark Ex db eb ia II C T5 Gb and IP54 overall protection. It adopts fully pneumatic pre-start purge operation mode, compatible with clean oil-free compressed air and inert gas with supply pressure of 4-10bar. The purge flow ranges from 500 to 12000NL/min, and purge time is steplessly adjustable from 0 to 99 minutes to match increased safety motors of different volumes. The corrosion-resistant 316 stainless steel housing supports vertical fixed installation. Multiple flow codes including 2ZA/6ZA/8ZA are available for selection. The full series supports customization on flow, time and interfaces, widely applied for motor explosion protection in Zone 2 gas hazardous chemical and petrochemical plants.
TYEA Increased Safety Purge System
- Petroleum & Refining Industry: Zone 2 hazardous areas of refineries and oil & gas gathering stations, matched with increased safety main drive motors. It replaces flammable oil & gas inside cavities before startup to avoid explosion risks from ignition sparks.
- Fine Chemical Parks: Pharmaceutical, coating and resin workshops with volatile flammable gases like ethanol and acetone, providing protection for stirring and conveying explosion-proof motors.
- Coal Chemical Industry: Coal-to-olefin and coking plants with mixed hazardous coal gas and hydrogen, serving as pre-purge safety protection for high-power increased safety motors.
- Natural Gas Stations: City gate stations, compression stations and LNG vaporization stations where leaked natural gas accumulates easily, offering explosion-proof purge protection for fan and compressor matched motors.
- Fertilizer & Chemical Plants: Ammonia synthesis and methanol workshops with high-risk ammonia and methanol vapor, keeping motor inner cavities free of explosive media steadily.
- New Energy Lithium Battery Plants: Electrolyte and cathode material workshops where organic solvents form explosive mixed gas, protecting all kinds of increased safety drive motors in workshops.
- Complete Explosion-proof Certifications, Top Safety GradeFull unit explosion-proof mark Ex db eb ia II C T5 Gb with IP54 overall protection, suitable for II C highest-risk gas like hydrogen and acetylene, complying with GB/T3836.5 national explosion-proof standard.
- Full Flow Range Coverage, Compatible with Multiple MotorsThree flow models 2ZA/6ZA/8ZA cover purge flow from 500 to 12000NL/min, matching micro small motors up to large industrial increased safety motors.
- 316 Stainless Steel Construction, Anti-corrosion & Long Service LifeControl cabinet, pipelines and nozzles are all made of 316 stainless steel, resisting acid, alkali, moisture and chemical corrosion, supporting long-term continuous operation in outdoor and corrosive workshops.
- Fully Pneumatic Design without Electric Control, Intrinsically SafeNo built-in circuit boards or external power supply, fully driven by air source. It completely eliminates electric spark risks and runs safely even under power failure conditions.
