COMPACT 5000 Analog 8-channel Current/Voltage Input Module
IEC Hazardous Location Approval
The following applies to products with IECEx certification: Such modules:
• Are intended for use in areas in which explosive atmospheres caused by gases, vapors, mists, or air are unlikely to occur, or are likely to occur only infrequently and for short periods. Such locations
correspond to Zone 2 classification to IEC 60079-0.
• The type of protection is "Ex nA IIC T4 Gc" according to IEC 60079-15.
• The 5069-IF8 module complies to standards IEC 60079-0:6th Edition, IEC-60079-15:4th Edition, reference IECEx certificate number IECEx UL 15.0055X.
Special Conditions for Safe Use
WARNING:
• This equipment is not resistant to sunlight or other sources of UV radiation.
• This equipment shall be mounted in an ATEX/IECEx Zone 2 certified enclosure with a minimum ingress protection rating of at least IP54 (as defined in
EN/IEC 60529) and used in an environment of not more than Pollution Degree 2 (as defined in EN/IEC 60664-1) when applied in Zone 2 environments. The
enclosure must be accessible only by the use of a tool.
• This equipment shall be used within its specified ratings defined by Rockwell Automation.
• Provision shall be made to prevent the rated voltage from being exceeded by transient disturbances of more than 140% of the rated voltage when applied in
Zone 2 environments.
• The instructions in the user manual shall be observed.
• This equipment must be used only with ATEX/IECEx certified Rockwell Automation backplanes.
• Secure any external connections that mate to this equipment by using screws, sliding latches, threaded connectors, or other means provided with this
product.
• Do not disconnect equipment unless power has been removed or the area is known to be nonhazardous.
• Earthing is accomplished through mounting of modules on rail.
• Devices shall be used in an environment of not more than Pollution Degree 2.
Prevent Electrostatic Discharge
ATTENTION:
This equipment is sensitive to electrostatic discharge, which can cause internal damage and affect normal operation. Follow these guidelines when
you handle this equipment:
• Touch a grounded object to discharge potential static.
• Wear an approved grounding wriststrap.
• Do not touch connectors or pins on component boards.
• Do not touch circuit components inside the equipment.
• Use a static-safe workstation, if available.
• Store the equipment in appropriate static-safe packaging when not in use.
Electrical Safety Considerations
ATTENTION:
• Do not wire more than 1 conductor on any single RTB terminal.
• In case of malfunction or damage, no attempts at repair should be made. The module should be returned to the manufacturer for repair. Do not dismantle
the module.
• This equipment is certified for use only within the surrounding air temperature range of 0…60 °C (32…140 °F) The equipment must not be used outside of
this range.
• Use only a soft dry anti-static cloth to wipe down equipment. Do not use any cleaning agents.
