Electromagnetic compatibility
Instruments in four-wire or Ex-d-ia version are designed for use in an
industrial environment. Nevertheless, electromagnetic interference
from electrical conductors and radiated emissions must be taken into
account, as is usual with class A instruments according to EN 61326-
1. If the instrument is used in a dierent environment, the electromag-
netic compatibility to other instruments must be ensured by suitable
measures.
