IMPORTANT
1. Read this leaflet carefully before commencing to use the Transformer
and retain it for future use.
2. Check the rating label to ensure the Transformer is suitable for the
supply provided, ambient temperature present and IP rating.
3. The Transformer housing is constructed from marine grade stainless
steel enclosure and the mounted sockets are plastic, the end user must
ensure that these materials are suitable for the atmosphere the
transformer will be used in. Excessive force should not be used on
plastic components.
4. The Transformer should only be used with the sockets parallel to the
ground, with the lid uppermost, and mounted in the skid supplied.
5. The Transformer must not be opened when energized, even after
disconnection from the mains supply a delay of 5 minutes should be
observed before opening.
6. Ensure all replacement fuses are of the correct type and current rating.
7. Prices and design are subject to alteration without notice. All products
sold are subject to our conditions of sale. A copy of these instructions
with any relevant revisions can be found at www.wolf-safety.co.uk
USE OF ATEX TRANSFORMERS
1. The Transformer is designed to supply a maximum load of 400 VA, if
this is exceeded the internal output fuse may blow. Any apparatus
operated from the Transformer should be checked to ensure that the
maximum load is not exceeded. This maximum load is reduced to 350
VA for a +40ºC ambient.
2. The fuse ratings used in this Transformer have been selected for use
with Wolf temporary lighting products. For the fuses to provide the

required level of protection the output cable to any connected device
must be limited to a maximum 35 metres of 4mm
2
of 2.5mm cable. Longer cable lengths and smaller cable diameters
will increase cable impedance; this may prevent correct fuse
operation, resulting in overheating, damage to the Transformer and a
potentially unsafe condition in the safe or hazardous area.
3. It is the user's responsibility to ensure that any cable configuration
used with this Transformer will not compromise the integral fuse
protection of the unit.
4. Apparatus with long cable lengths (>20m) must be checked to ensure
the calculated voltage drop will not prevent the apparatus from
operating within the specified voltage tolerance (+ 6%, -10%).
5. All Transformers have terminal blocks suitable for up to 4mm
neutral and earth. Only one conductor should be fitted to each
terminal block, for screwed type terminal blocks all terminals should
be fully tightened down whether a conductor is fitted or not.
6. Approved cable glands must be used and be suitable for the type of
cable used. Any unused cable entries should be blanked off with an
approved stopper plug to maintain a minimum IP rating as marked on
the certification label.
MAINTENANCE
1. Isolate the Transformer from the mains and wait 5 minutes before
opening.
2. It is essential that all Transformers are maintained in accordance with
the requirements of EN60079-17
3. A visual check should be carried out to ensure all internal cable is in
good condition, and not suffering any sign of damage or degradation.
All internal connections should be checked to ensure that they are
correctly secured.
4. The condition of the gaskets on the marine grade Stainless Steel
enclosure should be inspected to ensure there is no breakdown in the
IP66 rating.
5. If changing the input or output fuse care should be taken to replace
with the correct type of fuse and secure the screwed cover on fully.
6. IMPORTANT. No modifications are permitted to the transformer.
DISPOSAL OF WASTE MATERIAL
Disposal of packaging, Transformer and associated parts should be carried
out in accordance with national regulations.
WARNING: USE ONLY GENUINE WOLF REPLACEMENT PARTS.
