WARNING – Explosion Hazard
For the use in hazardous locations, this equipment shall be installed in a suitable enclosure,
providing a degree of protection not less than IP54. The interior of the enclosure shall be
accessible only by the use of a tool.
Do not connect or disconnect electrical equipment unless power has been removed or the
area is known to be non-hazardous.
!
WARNING
Observe the user manual
The warning symbol on the device (exclamation point in triangle) means:
Observe user manual!
Protection against electric shock
For applications with high working voltages, take measures to prevent accidental contact
and make sure that there is sufficient distance or insulation between adjacent devices.
Warning against misuse
Do not operate the device outside the conditions specified by the manufacturer,
as this might result in hazards to operators or malfunction of the equipment.
The system installer is responsible for the safety of the system in which the device is
integrated.
Installation
Only trained and qualified personnel should install the P224xx P1 loop-powered isolator.
For SIL applications, the 20 mA signal lines must be galvanically isolated from the mains.
Be sure to observe the national codes and regulations during installation and selection of
cables and lines. Make sure that the connecting cables have an appropriate temperature
rating.
Shut-off
Whenever it is likely that the protection has been impaired, the device shall be made
inoperative and secured against unintended operation.
The protection is likely to be impaired if, for example:
• the device shows visible damage
• the device fails to perform the intended function
• after prolonged storage at temperatures outside the specified temperature range
• after severe transport stresses
Before recommissioning the device, a professional routine test must be performed.
This test should be carried out at our factory.

CAUTION
ESD – Electrostatic Discharge
Be sure to take protective measures against electrostatic discharge (ESD) when handling the
loop-powered isolators!
