The unit is an associated equipment according to IEC/EN 60079-11. The unit is not suitable for separating signals in power measurement technology. The unit transmits binary signals of NAMUR sensors or mechanical contacts from the hazardous area into the non-hazardous area. u Only use the unit within the permissible operating conditions.
Page 5
u Install the unit outside the hazardous area. The unit has the protection rating IP20 according to IEC/EN 60529. u Only install and use the unit under operating conditions that do not exceed soiling degree 2 according to IEC EN 60664-1. In case of use under operating conditions with a higher degree of soiling, the unit must be protected accordingly.
