Special conditions for safe use (X):
1. When fitted with the 90V transient suppressors, the
equipment is not capable of passing the 500V insulation
test. This must be taken into account upon installation.
2. The enclosure may be made from aluminum alloy with a
protective polyurethane paint finish; however, care should
be taken to protect it from impact or abrasion when
located in Zone 0.
3. When the equipment is installed, particular precautions
must be taken to ensure, taking into account the effect of
process fluid temperature, that the ambient temperature
of the electrical housing of the equipment meets the
marked protection type temperature range.
