1) Use in methane atmospheres
Owing to the higher minimum ignition energy of methane, the instruments can also be used where methane causes a
potentially explosive gas atmosphere.
2) Current per IEC 60079-11 table 4
3) The permissible power to the sensor depends on the temperature of the medium T
resistance R
, but shall not be more than 1.5 W.

Electrical data with built-in transmitter in accordance with the FISCO model
■
The transmitters/digital displays used for the application range in accordance with the
FISCO model are considered FISCO field instruments. The requirements in accordance
with IEC/EN 60079-27, and the connection conditions of the approvals in accordance
with FISCO, apply.
