energize power source (turn off power supply voltage) before plug or unplug the terminal blocks when installed in Hazardous Area or unless area is known to be nonhazardous.
Warning: substitution of components may impair Intrinsic Safety and suitability for Zone 2.
Explosion Hazard: to prevent ignition of flammable or combustible atmospheres, disconnect power before servicing or unless area is known to be nonhazardous.
Failure to properly installation or use of the equipment may risk to damage the unit or severe personal injury.
The unit cannot be repaired by the end user and must be returned to the manufacturer or his authorized representative. Any unauthorized modification must be avoided.
Warning
Operation
D5038 series can accept on input connections switches or proximity detectors (EN60947-5-6, NAMUR). The output port can assume two different impedance values (RL or RH) or it can
open completely. The module output repeats the input state according to the following correspondence: low input state -> RL, high input state -> RH. Alternatively, the output can be
configured to invert the input state. In both cases, the output opens and the fault LED turns on if any fault (open or short circuit) occurs at the corresponding input.
Presence of supply power and status of output (energized or de-energized), as well as integrity or fault condition of sensor and connecting line are displayed by signaling LEDs (green for
power, yellow for status and red for fault condition).
Note: use of voltage free electrical contacts with fault detection enabled (control equipment) requires, near the switch at the end of the line a R1=1 k

resistor in series and a R2=10 k

close/open and a line open/short circuit fault.
Installation
D5038 series is switch/proximity repeater housed in a plastic enclosure suitable for installation on EN/IEC60715 TH 35 DIN-Rail, with or without Power Bus or on customized Termination
Board. D5038 series can be mounted with any orientation over the entire ambient temperature range.
Electrical connections are accommodated by polarized plug-in removable screw terminal blocks which can be plugged in/out into a powered unit without suffering or causing any damage
(for Zone 2 installations check the area to be nonhazardous before servicing)
. Connect only one individual conductor per each clamping point, use conductors up to 2.5 mm²
(13 AWG) and a torque value of 0.5
‑
0.6 Nm. Use only cables that are suitable for a temperature of at least 85°C.The wiring cables have to be proportionate in base to the current and
the length of the cable.
On the section “Function Diagram” and enclosure side a block diagram identifies all connections.
Intrinsically Safe conductors must be identified and segregated from non I.S. and wired in accordance to the relevant national/international installation standards (e.g. EN/IEC60079

The enclosure provides, according to EN60529, an IP20 minimum degree of protection (or similar to NEMA Standard 250 type 1). The equipment shall only be used in an area of at least
pollution degree 2, as defined in IEC 60664-1. When installed in EU Zone 2, the unit shall be installed in an enclosure that provides a minimum ingress protection of IP54 in accordance
with IEC 60079-0. When installed in a Class I, Zone 2 Hazardous Location, the unit shall be mounted in a supplemental AEx or Ex enclosure that provides a degree of protection not less
than IP54 in accordance with UL/CSA 60079-0. When installed in a Class I, Division 2 Hazardous Location, the unit shall be mounted in a supplemental enclosure that provides a degree
of protection not less than IP54. The enclosure must have a door or cover accessible only by the use of a tool. The end user is responsible to ensure that the operating temperature of
the module is not exceeded in the end use application.
Units must be protected against dirt, dust, extreme mechanical (e.g. vibration, impact and shock) and thermal stress, and casual contacts. If enclosure needs to be cleaned use only a
cloth lightly moistened by a mixture of detergent in water.
Electrostatic Hazard: to avoid electrostatic hazard, the enclosure of D5038 series must be cleaned only with a damp or antistatic cloth.
Any penetration of cleaning liquid must be avoided to prevent damage to the unit.
Any unauthorized modification must be avoided.
D5038 series must be connected to SELV or PELV supplies.
All circuits connected to D5038 series must comply with the overvoltage category II (or better) according to EN/IEC60664

Start-up
Before powering the unit check that all wires are properly connected, particularly supply conductors and their polarity, input and output wires, also check that Intrinsically Safe conductors
and cable trays are segregated (no direct contacts with other non I.S. conductors) and identified either by color coding, preferably blue, or by marking. Check conductors for exposed
wires that could touch each other causing dangerous unwanted shorts. Turn on power, the “power on” green led must be lit, status and fault led on each channel must be in accordance
with condition of the corresponding input line. If possible close and open input lines one at time checking the corresponding status and fault leds condition as well as output to be correct.
