Line Monitoring If Line Monitoring is required, this can be achieved by using an end-of- line resistor. For this purpose, a wire-wound or metal film resistor with a resistance value of at least 750 Ohm and rated power of at least 2 W or a 4700 Ohm and a rated power of at least 0.4 W.

Barrier/Isolator Information Connection into the unit must be via a suitably rated Zener Barrier or Galvanic Isolator. If these units are powered directly without a Barrier/Isolator, the PCBs will be permanently damaged and warranty will be void. Example of single channel barrier connection Single barrier connections can be used for simple power supply installations,...

Galvanic Isolators The Galvanic Isolators have the advantage of not requiring an isolated high integrity earth to be installed, which is required for Zener Barriers. These Isolators are often more expensive per unit but may reduce installation costs as the earth is not required. Single isolator connections can be used for simple power supply installations,...

7.0 Maintenance Little or no maintenance is required during the normal working life of the product. The C&S YL5 Intrinsically Safe enclosures are resistant to most acids, alkalis and chemicals and have been designed to withstand severe weather conditions. However it is suggested that continuous supervision and periodic inspections may be required in relation to the requirements of the installation as per IEC 60079-17.
