Device-specific hazards

DANGER
Explosion hazard
Death, serious injury, and property damage may occur if the device is being used in
a potentially explosive (classified) location and, during operation, an electrical plug-
in connection is disconnected or the device is exposed to dangerous impacts or oth-
er types of dangerous mechanical shock.
Use the device in the following environments only:

- Non-hazardous (non-explosive) areas
- Potentially explosive atmosphere, Zone 22 (according to ATEX 94/9/EC)
Potentially explosive atmosphere, Zone 22:

The ground resistance of accessible metal parts must be less than 10
When used in a potentially explosive atmosphere, Zone 22, the environment has

to be designed to avoid any bunch discharge
Make sure that the device is not exposed to dangerous impacts and other types

of dangerous mechanical shock.
Do not operate the device in hazardous (classified) locations unless it is mounted

correctly.
De-energize the device before disconnecting plug connections.

WARNING
Live parts inside the device
When the device is open, there will be an electric shock hazard if live parts are
touched.
The device must not be opened.

WARNING
Stray currents
Large transient currents between the protective circuits of different devices may re-
sult in fire or in malfunctions due to signal interference.
If necessary, a potential equalization conductor should be installed parallel to the

cable. This should have a cross-section that is a multiple of the cable screen.
CAUTION
Electrostatic discharge
Electrostatic discharge may damage or destroy electronic components.
Avoid contact with components (such as connector pins) that are susceptible to

electrostatic discharge.
Discharge (by touching a grounded metal object) any static charge accumulated

in your body before touching the device.
