Cisco Mesh Access Points User Manual

For USA and Canada, this certification is CSA Class 1, Division 2. For Europe (EU), it is ATEX or IEC
Class 1, Zone 2.
Note
Cisco has Hazardous Certified SKUs for USA and EU: AIR-LAP1522HZ-x-K9, AIR-LAP1524HZ-x-K9,
and AIR-LAP1552H-x-K9. These SKUs are modified, as per the certification requirements. The hazardous
locations certificate requires that all electrical power cables be run through conduit piping to protect against
accidental damage to the electrical wiring that could cause a spark and possible explosion. Access points for
hazardous locations contain an internal electrical mounting connect that receives discrete wires from a conduit
interface coupler entering from the side of the housing. After the electrical wiring is installed, a cover housing
is installed over the electrical connector to prevent exposure to the electrical wiring. The outside of the housing
has a hazardous location certification label (CSA, ATEX, or IEC) that identifies the type of certifications and
environments that the equipment is approved for operation.
Power entry module for CSA (USA and Canada) is Power Entry Module, Groups A, B, C, and D with
T5v(120° C) temp code. Power Entry Module for ATEX (EU) is Power entry module Groups IIC, IIB,
IIA with T5 (120° C) temp code.
Note
Hazardous Certification (Div 1 > Div 2 and Zone 1 > Zone 2)
