2 Basic safety instructions 2.1 Symbol- and note definition means that death or serious injury can occur if the required precautions are not met. means that minor injuries can occur if the required precautions are not met. means that damage to property can occur if the required precautions are not met.
Basic safety instructions 2.2 Obligation of the operator prior to commissioning As an electronic device and for use in potentially explosive areas, the explosion protection enclosure with integrated measuring system is subject to the provisions of the EU-directives EMC and ATEX. Therefore commissioning of the device is only allowed once it has been established that the system/machine in which the device is to be installed, complies with the provisions of the EU-directives EMC and ATEX, the harmonized standards, European...
2.4 Intended use The equipment is used for the detection of linear movements as well as the processing of the measurement data for a downstream control through industrial process- and control procedures. The equipment is a fixed-installation device for use in the Ex-Zone 2 (potentially gas- explosive areas, Il 3 G, device protection level Gc) or 22 (areas with combustible dust II 3 D, device protection level Dc).
Basic safety instructions 2.6 Warranty and liability The "General terms and conditions" (“Allgemeine Geschäftsbedingungen”) of the company TR-Electronic GmbH apply in general. This will be available to the operator with the contract confirmation or –conclusion at the latest. Warranty- or liability claims with regards to personal- and property damage are excluded, if they are the result of one or more of the following causes: •...
2.8 Personnel selection and -qualification; basic obligations 2.8.1 Electrical installations design, device selection and erection The project development of electrical systems, the selection of the devices and the installation in potentially explosive atmospheres may only be performed by persons whose training includes instruction in various types of ignition and installation techniques, applicable regulations and prescriptions as well as general principles of the Zone-classification.
Basic safety instructions 2.9 First commissioning / Commissioning Prior to the first commissioning the equipment is to be checked regarding its suitability in the respective zone according to its labeling. The values indicated on the nameplate are not to be exceeded. With use of the equipment in areas which are potentially explosive because of dust, a deposit of dust on the top-side which is more than 2 mm thick is not permissible.
2.11 Inspection, maintenance and repair The operator of an electrical system in a potentially explosive environment must keep the equipment in an good condition, operate it properly, monitor it and maintenance and repair work must be performed, also see IEC 60079-17 and DIN EN 60079-17 in this respect.
Basic safety instructions 2.12 Special conditions for safe use, marking "X" The "X" symbol in the labeling of the equipment is used to indicate special application conditions: The equipment's installation location and -manner are generally to be selected in such a way that it is protected from external mechanical influences and in a way that no function limitations can result.
3 Transport / Storage Transport – instructions Do not drop the device or allow hard impacts! The equipment consists of a magneto-resistive sensor. Only use the original packaging! Inappropriate packaging material may cause damage to the device during transport. Storage Storage temperature: -30 to +85°C Store in a dry place ...

Assembly 5 Assembly Dimensions must be taken from the customer-specific drawing Before mounting TR-linear-Transducer, make sure there are no strong magnetic and electric interference fields in the vicinity. Inadmissible interference fields can influence the measuring precision. The field strength may be max. 3 mT in the vicinity of the measuring rod. 5.1 Mechanics profile- housing design Since the position sensor by the measuring body mechanically one leads, is relatively simple the installation the TR-linear-Transducer system.
6 Equipotential bonding conductor - Connection An equipotential is required for systems in potentially explosive areas. This is to be done with a minimum wire diameter of 4 mm (1): Blade terminal (2): Blade receptacle, no scope of delivery Figure 1: Equipotential bonding conductor - Connection Figure 2: Dimensioned drawing –...
