For Proper and Safe Use Thank you for purchasing the KJ55 intrinsically safe pressure transmitter. To use this product safely and properly, read this user manual carefully. This product is a marine pressure transmitter conforming to the IEC intrinsically safe standards, which can be used even in Zone 0 areas where explosive gas always exists.
■ Precautions for Handling Product ! WARNING Do not give excessive load, vibration, and shock. Damage to the product and release of a measured object may be caused, which results in injury or damage to the surrounding environment. Do not apply pressure over the maximum allowable pressure. Damage to pressure elements may be caused, which results in injury or damage to the surrounding environment.

5. Transportation and Unpacking ■ 5.1 Precautions for Transportation Do not drop this product or give a shock to it as it is precisely machined. Otherwise, the product may become completely inoperable. Pay extra attention to transportation. ■ 5.2 Precautions for Unpacking Be careful not to handle the carton roughly when unpacking it.
7. Wiring and Connection ■ 7.1 Transmission Cable (Applicable Transmission Cable) For the transmission cable used between KJ55 and the safety barrier, select a two-core shielded cable that satisfies the following conditions: (1) The sheath diameter must suit the KJ55 cable gland (JIS F 8801 20f), and the core wire cross section must suit the internal terminal block.
■ 7.2 Wiring Diagram Install the intrinsically safe equipment (KJ55) in a hazardous area and the safety barrier (insulating barrier) and general equipment (power supply, receiving device) in a non-hazardous area as shown in the wiring diagram below. If you purchase an insulating barrier, Class A grounding defined in the intrinsically safe standards is not required.
