Capstone Turbine Corporation • 21211 Nordhoff Street • Chatsworth • CA 91311 • USA Application Guide: Offshore/Coastal Systems – Hazardous and Non-hazardous Installations Offshore/Coastal for Hazardous (Class I, Div 2) Areas NOTE The following section applies specifically to hazardous (Class I, Div 2) areas. The following section describes the application of a Capstone MicroTurbine system in areas classified as Class I, Div 2 per NFPA 496. The definition of an area classified as Class I, Div. 2 (per NFPA, National Fire Protection Agency 496, 1998 Ed) is: “A location (1) in which volatile flammable liquids or flammable gases are handled, processed, or used, but in which the liquids, vapors, or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in case of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems, or in case of abnormal operation of equipment; or (2) in which ignitable concentrations of gases or vapors that are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation and that might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operation of the ventilating equipment; or (3) that is adjacent to a Class I, Div. 1 location and to which ignitable concentrations of gases or vapors might occasionally be communicated unless such communication is prevented by adequate positive-pressure ventilation from a source of clean air, and effective safeguards against ventilation failure are provided.” Typical Class I, Div. 2 classified areas are oil and gas production facilities, where combustible gases and fuel fumes are handled within closed containers, but may leak to the atmosphere in case of equipment malfunctions, or emergency situations (i.e. vent valves). Examples of such installations are refineries and offshore oil and gas production platforms. Compliance with the requirements detailed in this document is essential to avoid problems that may affect the performance, life, reliability, warranty and the safe operation of the Capstone MicroTurbine. For installation details refer to NFPA 496 Standard for Purged and Pressurized Enclosures for Electrical Equipment (1998 Edition), NEC Article 501 (1999 Edition), and the Capstone Installation and Permitting Guidelines Technical Reference (410034).
