type examination certificates, certificates, and control drawings
if applicable (see datasheet) are an integral part of this document. You can
find this information under www.pepperl-fuchs.com.
Refer to the relevant EU-type examination certificate to see the
relationship between the connected circuit type, the maximum permitted
ambient temperature, the temperature class, and the effective inner
reactances.

4. Intended Use
The VisuNet GXP is used as an explosion-protected system for
controlling, operating and visualizing production and manufacturing
processes in hazardous areas zones 1 and 2, ignition group IIC, zone 21
and zone 22 for dust group IIIC according to type designation according to
type code.
The device is only approved for appropriate and intended use.
Ignoring these instructions will void any warranty and absolve
the manufacturer from any liability.
Use the device only within the specified ambient and operating conditions.
The device is designed for a maximum altitude of 2000 m.
Take the intended use of the connected devices from the corresponding
documentation.
Take the intended use of the installed devices from the corresponding
documentation.
Refer to the corresponding technical data of the installed components for
the actual type of protection or any possible restrictions.
DOCT-5478F / 2025-03
The device is an electrical apparatus for hazardous areas.
Devices for which specific conditions of use apply have the X marking at
the end of the certificate number.
5. Improper Use
Protection of personnel and the plant is not ensured if the device
is not used according to its intended use.
The device is not suitable to separate intrinsically safe circuits from non-
intrinsically safe circuits.
6. Specific Conditions of Use
Mount the device in a location with low electrostatic charge.
Equipotential bonding must be achieved along the intrinsically safe
circuits.
Individually accessible non-grounded metal parts can become
electrostatically charged. The determined capacitance exceeds the
required value according to IEC/EN 60079-0. The determined capacitance
is specified in the technical data.
Take the intended use of the connected devices from the corresponding
documentation.
7. Mounting and Installation
Prior to mounting, installation, and commissioning of the device you
should make yourself familiar with the device and carefully read the
instruction manual.
Do not stay below the open device. In order to avoid personal injuries or
property damage, make appropriate provisions for the mounting and
maintenance procedures.
Use mounting materials which are suitable to secure the device safely.
Only use accessories specified by the manufacturer.
The device must be disconnected from the power supply prior to
installation and maintenance. The power supply may be activated only
after all the circuits required for operation have been fully assembled and
connected.
Protect the circuit against overvoltage (e. g., lightning).
Supply the device with a power supply that meets the requirements for
safety extra-low voltage (SELV) or protective extra-low voltage (PELV).
Do not damage the breather drain.
Do not cover the breather drain.
When connecting intrinsically safe devices with intrinsically safe circuits of
associated apparatus, observe the maximum peak values with regard to
explosion protection (verification of intrinsic safety). Observe the
standards IEC/EN 60079-14 or IEC/EN 60079-25.
Only connect a device that is in accordance with IEC/EN 60950-1
and is designed as safety extra-low protective voltage (SELV) system.
Ensure that all fasteners are present.
Observe the tightening torque of the screws.
For intrinsically safe circuits, the dielectric strength of the insulation against
other intrinsically safe circuits and against the shield must be
at least 500 V according to IEC/EN 60079-14.
Safety-relevant markings are found on the nameplate supplied.
Ensure that the nameplate is present and legible. Take the ambient
conditions into account.
Ensure that external ground connections exist, are in good condition, and
are not damaged or corroded.
Ensure that the terminals are in good condition and are not damaged
or corroded.
Mount the device in a weatherproof location.
Mount the device in such a way that it is protected from direct sunlight.
Mount the device in such a way that it is protected from ultraviolet
radiation.
Mount the device in such a way that it is protected from direct sunlight,
unless it is equipped with UV protection.
Ensure that the operating location has a sufficient floor load capacity.
If mounting the enclosure on concrete use expansion anchors.
When mounting the enclosure to a steel framework use vibration resistant
mounting material.
Protect the device against long-term or excessive mechanical vibrations.
The device is heavy. In order to avoid personal injuries or property
damage, make appropriate provisions for the mounting procedure.
Observe the maximum permissible length of cables and connection lines.
Observe the installation instructions according to IEC/EN 60079-14.
Observe the installation instructions according to IEC/EN 60079-25.
Equipotential bonding must be achieved along the intrinsically safe
circuits.
Connect all bare non-energized metal parts to the protective conductor.
The device is not suitable for separating hazardous areas.
The housing has a ground connection. Connect to this ground connection
an equipotential bonding conductor with a minimum cross section of
2
4 mm .
The device may be installed in gas group IIC.
Only remove the cover in the absence of a potentially explosive
atmosphere.
The device must be disconnected from the power supply prior to
installation and maintenance. The power supply may be activated only
