General Requirements
2
Installation and maintenance must be performed only by qualified personnel. Area Classification,
Protection Type, Temperature Class, Gas Group, and Ingress protection must conform to the data
indicated on the label.
Wiring and conduit must conform to all local and national codes governing the installation. Wiring
must be rated for at least 5ºC above the highest expected ambient temperature. (ATTENTION – LE
CABLAGE D'ALIMENTATION DOIT ETRE HOMOLOGUE POUR UNE TEMPERATURE SUPERIEURE
D'AU MOINS 5°C A LA TEMPERATURE AMBIANTE MAXIMALE)
Approved wire seals against ingress of water are required and the NPT fittings must be sealed with
tape or thread sealant in order to meet the highest level of ingress protection.
Where the protection type depends on wiring glands, the glands must be certified for the type of
protection required.
The metal housing is a die-cast alloy which is predominately aluminum.
"X" Marking on label - Since the SVi1000 enclosure contains greater than 10% aluminum; care must
be taken during installation to avoid impacts or friction that could create an ignition source.
"X" Marking on label - Potential Electrostatic Charge Hazard – For safe operation use only wet cloth
when cleaning or wiping device, and only when local conditions around the device are free of
potentially explosive atmospheres. Do not use dry cloth. Do not use solvent.
Before powering the SVi1000:
o Verify that the cover screws are tightened. This is important to maintain the ingress
protection level.
o If the installation is intrinsically safe, check that the proper barriers are installed and the
field wiring meets local and national codes for an IS installation. Never install a device
which was previously installed without an intrinsically safe barrier in an intrinsically safe
system.
o If the pneumatic system is powered by a combustible gas then the installation must be
treated as Zone 0 or DIV I.
o In non-incendive installations, check to ensure all electrical connections are made to
approved circuits which meet local and jurisdictional installation codes.
