  • Page 7: Product Specifications

    Multifunction Terminal MFT-***.****(.L) Product Specifications Product Specifications Function Many applications in hazardous areas work with field devices that do not have intrinsically safe connections. In these applications, protection methods such as type Ex e protection (increased safety) are used. In contrast to intrinsically safe circuits, increased safety connections are generally not accessible when energized.
  • Page 8: Assembly

    Multifunction Terminal MFT-***.****(.L) Product Specifications Assembly The multifunction terminal consists of a base module and a plug-in module. The base module is mounted on a DIN mounting rail. The plug-in module is connected to the base module. The base module has a plastic housing that conforms to type of protection Ex e. There are 2-pin and 4-pin base modules for connecting plug-in modules with 2 or 4 pins.

  • Page 11: Installation

    Multifunction Terminal MFT-***.****(.L) Installation Installation Danger! Explosion hazard from pollution Pollution generates creepage paths, such that the insulation distances are no longer sufficient. As a result, the device loses its type of protection and can ignite a surrounding explosive atmosphere. Ensure that you install the device only in environments with a pollution degree 2 or better in accordance with IEC/EN 60664–1.

Danger to life from incorrect installation Incorrect installation of cables and connection lines can compromise the function and the electrical safety of the device. • Observe the permissible core cross section of the conductor. •...
  • Page 15 Multifunction Terminal MFT-***.****(.L) Installation To ensure IP30 protection, fit terminal covers over the screws. The bare parts of the screws are covered. Place warning marking "Warning – Non-intrinsically safe circuits protected by cover with a degree of protection IP30!" visibly next to base module. To ensure IP30 protection, close unused terminal openings with terminal pins.
  • Page 16: Commissioning

    Multifunction Terminal MFT-***.****(.L) Commissioning Commissioning Coding Caution! Property damage from wrong coding If the coding is not unique, plug-in modules can be accidentally swapped. Coding the plugin modules uniquely so that every plug-in module fits exactly one base module. Use the coding strip in the base module and corresponding coding pins in the plug-in module to enable unique assignment of plug-in modules to base modules.
  • Page 17: Dismounting, Maintenance, And Repair

    • The device must not be repaired, changed or manipulated. • If there is a defect, always replace the device with an original device from Pepperl+Fuchs. Danger! Explosion hazard from contact with potentially explosive atmosphere When working in hazardous areas, there is an explosion hazard from sparking.
