Installing the Access Point in Hazardous Locations
Note
This document does not provide specific procedures for installing conduit. You must ensure that your
installation techniques and procedures comply with Class I, Division 2, Zone 2 hazardous location
installation regulations for your geographic location.
Caution
This product is rated only IP66 for hazardous location installations and IP67 for
non-hazardous location installations.
The access point’s hazardous location option complies with safety standards for Class I, Division 2, Zone
2 hazardous locations where ignitable concentrations of flammable gases, vapors, or liquids are not
likely to exist under normal operation conditions).
When you select the hazardous location option as part of the ordering process, Cisco configures the
system to contain the new components. Two conduit adaptors and assembly instructions placed in the
shipping box provide information and assembly procedures. The hazardous location option configures
the access point as follows:
•
The battery pack is removed because battery construction does not meet hazardous location
requirements.
•
The AC power connections are moved to the inside of the access point by installing an AC entry
board containing a terminal block. To comply with hazardous location requirements, AC power must
be installed through rigid metal conduit to the terminal block.
Caution
Do not use any form of sealant or gasket material when joining conduit components.
