Specific conditions of safe use

1 The enclosure contains aluminum and is considered to
present a potential risk of ignition by impact or friction. Care
shall be taken into account during installation and use to
prevent impact or friction.
2 For areas subject to explosive gas and/or dust atmospheres
the painted surface of the equipment may store electrostatic
charge and become a source of ignition in applications with
a low relative humidity < ~30% relative humidity where the
painted surface is relatively free of surface contamination
such as dirt, dust, or oil. Guidance on protection against the
risk of ignition due to electrostatic discharge can be found in
IEC TS 60079-32-1. Cleaning of the painted surface shall only
be done in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions
(see: Risk of electrostatic discharge).
3 The equipment shall not be used where UV light or radiation
may impinge on the enclosure or the window of the
enclosure.
4 The equipment shall only be used in an area of at least
Pollution Degree 2, as defined in IEC 60664 -1.
5 Transient protection shall be provided that is set at a level
not exceeding 140% of the peak rated voltage at the supply
and relay terminals of the equipment.
6 The equipment shall only be used in an area of at least
overvoltage category II, as defined in IEC 60664 -1.
7 The EZLink wiring is intrinsically safe and must be installed
and separated from non-IS wiring in accordance with IEC/EN
60079-14.
8 Relay contacts must be limited to 3 A.
(the non-hazardous version is 5 A).

Electrical installation in hazardous areas

IECEx/ATEX gland entries

For hazardous area installations, suitable ATEX or IECEx cable
glands and blanking elements with a minimum IP66 rating must
be used to seal the entry holes.

cULus installation

The use of Conduit for the non-I.S. external circuits, or
installation should be in accordance with Section 501.10(b) of
the NEC (NFPA 70).
