POTENTIAL FOR EXPLOSION
Always confirm the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 or CSA C22.2 N213 hazardous location rating of your

device before installing or using it in a hazardous location.
To apply or remove the supply power from this product installed in a Class I, Division 2

hazardous location, you must either:
Use a switch located outside the hazardous environment, or;

Use a switch certified for Class I, Division 1 operation inside the hazardous area.

Do not connect or disconnect equipment unless power has been switched off or the area is

known to be non-hazardous. This applies to all connections including power, ground, serial,
parallel, and network connections.
Never use unshielded / ungrounded cables in hazardous locations.

Use only non-incendiary USB devices.

When enclosed, keep enclosure doors and openings closed at all times to avoid the

accumulation of foreign matter inside the workstation.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
Division 2 hazardous location regulations require that all cable connections be provided with
adequate strain relief and positive interlock. Use only non-incendive USB devices as USB
connections do not provide adequate strain relief to allow the use of the USB connections of this
product (see page 71). Never connect or disconnect a cable while power is applied at either end
of the cable. All communication cables should include a chassis ground shield. This shield should
include both copper braid and aluminum foil. The D-sub style connector housing must be a metal
conductive type (for example, molded zinc) and the ground shield braid must be terminated directly
to the connector housing. Do not use a shield drain wire.
The outer diameter of the cable must be suited to the inner diameter of the cable connector strain
relief so that a reliable degree of strain relief is maintained. Always secure the D-sub connectors
to the workstation-mating connectors via the two screws located on both sides.
USB Connection
Non-incendive field wiring apparatus (keyboards, mouse) are permitted for use on the front USB
port (Type A) of associated field wiring non-incendive apparatus (this product). Non-incendive field
wiring apparatus (this product) are permitted for use on front USB port (mini B) of associated field
wiring non-incendive apparatus (Computer).
In addition to being non-incendive, any equipment connected to the front USB ports must satisfy
the following criteria.
