II 3G and is suitable for use in Zone 2 hazardous locations, in ambient temperatures of -40 °C ≤ Ta ≤ 70 °C. If you are using the NI 9203 in Gas Group IIC hazardous locations, you must use the device in an NI chassis that has been evaluated as Ex nC IIC T4, Ex IIC T4, Ex nA IIC T4, or Ex nL IIC T4 equipment.
In addition, take precautions when designing, selecting, and installing measurement probes and cables to ensure that the desired EMC performance is attained. 8 | ni.com | NI 9203 Getting Started Guide...
Preparing the Environment Ensure that the environment in which you are using the NI 9203 meets the following specifications............Operating temperature -40 °C to 70 °C (IEC 60068-2-1, IEC 60068-2-2) ............Operating humidity 10% RH to 90% RH, (IEC 60068-2-78) noncondensing ............
