846 ENTITY PARAMETERS
Uo = 40 VDC
Ui = 22 VDC
Ii = 57 mA
Ii = 200 mA
OR
Pi = 1.0 W
Pi = 1.0 W
Ci = 8 nF
Ci = 8 nF
Li = 20 µH
Li = 20 µH

THE ENTITY CONCEPT ALLOWS INTERCONNECTION OF INTRINSICALLY SAFE APPARATUS TO ASSOCIATED APPARATUS NOT
SPECIFICALLY EXAMINED IN SUCH COMBINATION. THE CRITERIA FOR INTERCONNECTION IS THAT THE VOLTAGE (Vmax or Ui),
THE CURRENT (Imax or Ii), AND THE POWER (Pmax or Pi) OF THE INTRINSICALLY SAFE APPARATUS MUST BE EQUAL TO OR
GREATER THAN THE VOLTAGE (Voc or Uo), AND THE CURRENT (Isc or Io), AND THE POWER (Po) DEFINED BY THE ASSOCIATED
APPARATUS. IN ADDITION, THE SUM OF THE MAX UNPROTECTED CAPACITANCE (Ci) AND MAX UNPROTECTED INDUCTANCE (Li),
INCLUDING THE INTERCONNECTING CABLING CAPACITANCE (Ccable) AND CABLING INDUCTANCE (Lcable) MUST BE LESS THAN
THE ALLOWABLE CAPACITANCE (Co) AND INDUCTANCE (Lo) DEFINED BY THE ASSOCIATED APPARATUS. IF THE ABOVE CRITERIA
IS MET, THEN THE COMBINATION MAY BE CONNECTED.

INSTALLATION MUST BE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE NATIONAL WIRING PRACTICES OF THE COUNTRY IN USE.

LOOPS MUST BE CONNECTED ACCORDING TO THE BARRIER MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS.
 THE INSTRINSICALLY SAFE APPARATUS SHALL ONLY BE CONNECTED TO ASSOCIATED INSTRINSICALLY SAFE
APPARATUS IN COMPLIANCE WITH STANDARD EN 60079-25.
 WARNING: FOR INTRINSICALLY SAFE APPLICATIONS THE APPARATUS ENCLOSURE CONTAINS ALUMINUM AND IS
CONSIDERED TO CONSTITUTE A POTENTIAL RISK OF IGNITION BY IMPACT AND FRICTION. AVOID IMPACT AND FRICTION
DURING INSTALLATION AND USE TO PREVENT RISK OF IGNITION.

FOR BARRIERS (LINEAR AND ACTIVE) THE ASSOCIATION OF Uo AND Io MUST BE SUCH THAT Po v 1W WITHIN THE SET
LIMITS OF THE 846 ENTITY PARAMETERS. REFER TO DIAGRAM ABOVE.
