Take note of safety instructions for Ex applications Please note the Ex specific safety information which you will find on our homepage www.vega.com\services\downloads and which come with the appropriate instrument with Ex approval. In hazardous areas you should take note of the appropriate regulations, conformity and type approval certificates of the sensors and power supply units.
Product description Product description Functional principle Separators separate intrinsically safe circuits from non-intrinsi- cally safe circuits. In general, a difference is made between gal- vanic separation by: Ex separators (with external energy) Separators (without external energy) Limitation of the electrical variables by: Fig.
