Hazardous areas
Observe the type examination certificates or the test certifications applicable in your
country if you use transmitters as category 1/2 equipment, otherwise there is a risk of
explosion.
Explosion Hazard
Intrinsically safe circuits
If a non-conforming supply unit is used, the "fail-safe" type of protection will no longer be
effective and the approval certification will be invalid, otherwise there is a risk of
explosion.
With intrinsically safe circuits, use only certified meters appropriate for the transmitter.
Explosion Hazard
Laying Cables
Cable for use in zone 1 and 2 must satisfy the requirements for having a proof voltage <
AC 500 V applied between the conductor/ground, conductor/shield and shield/ground,
otherwise there is a risk of explosion.
Connect the devices that are operated in hazardous areas as per the stipulations
applicable in the country of operation, e.g. for Ex "d" and "nA", permanent cables must
be laid.
