...4 Hazardous area considerations

Risk of electrostatic discharge

WARNING
Serious damage to health/risk to life
Potential electrostatic charging hazard – clean only with a
damp cloth and install away from any charging risks.

Instruments mounted in a hazardous area.

If the exterior of the instrument requires cleaning, care should
be taken to minimize the risk of electrostatic discharge. Use a
damp cloth or similar to clean all surfaces.
The keypad is intended to be operated in normal use, care
should be taken to minimize the risk of electrostatic discharge.
Use rubber gloves or ensure operators have been
electrostatically discharged.
