b. This equipment has been designed to provide protection against all the relevant additional

hazards referred to in Annex II of the directive, such as those in clause 1.2.7.

c. This equipment has been designed to meet the requirements of intrinsically safe electrical

apparatus in accordance with EN 60079-0. EN 60079-11 and EN 60079-26.

Installation

a. reference to the IEC code of practice IEC 60079-14. In addition, particular industries or end

against:

i) mechanical and thermal stresses in excess of those noted in the certification documentation

and the product specification.

ii) aggressive substances, excessive dust, moisture and other contaminants.

c. This equipment is intrinsically safe electrical apparatus and is normally mounted in a hazardous

1. When used with Group I gases, the Modules shall each be mounted within an enclosure

providing a degree of protection of at least IP54. in accordance with EN 60529. and in a

manner that does not impair the existing creepage and clearance distances. The enclosure

shall also comply with the requirements of Clauses 7 and 8 of EN 60079-0:2006.

2. The connectors do not meet the ingress protection rating of IP20. therefore, this shall be

taken into consideration during the installation of the 9400 Series Ethernet Modules when

used with Group II gases, and each module shall be provided with an enclosure that is

commensurate with the environment into which it is installed.

3. The supply to the modules must be derived from a suitably certified, intrinsically safe
