The requirements according to Clause 6.1.3 apply to the cable entries and conduit systems accordingly. – The degree of ingress protection is verified by a test according to IEC 60529 and EN 60079-0 (e.g. performed by VDE). Î For use in the presence of combustible dust in compliance with type of protection Ex tb IIIC (protection by enclosure), observe clause 5.6.3 of EN 60079-14.

Use the TROVIS-VIEW software with 3730-4 device module in- stalled. To connect the positioner directly to the computer via the local serial interface, an adapter (order no. 1400-9740) is required. The power supply for the positioner can be supplied either over the connection to the fieldbus segment or over a DC voltage source (9 to 32 V) connected to the bus terminals in the posi- tioner (a suitable intrinsically safe source must be used inside and outside the hazardous ar- ea for intrinsically safe positioners). The simultaneous operation of TROVIS-VIEW and the fieldbus system is possible without any restrictions when connected to a PROFIBUS-PA seg- ment.
