5.1.2 Explosion protection marking
The user/machine end-user has to classify potentially explosive areas according

groups and categories.
The valve may only be used in the areas and zones which correspond to the device
group and category. During use, also observe the other information on explosion
protection in "Data sheet 25802-XC".
