Certificates and Approvals
The Intrinsical Safety Specifications of the MST9500 have been defined and approved as
follows:

The MST9500 can be directly connected to an intrinsically safe supply for intrinsically safe
applications. For non-intrinsically safe operations, such as explosion proof, a safety barrier
must be used.
The operation of the MST9500 conforms to the following:
NAMUR recommendation NE 43
This recommendation describes rules with which analogue transmitters transfer their
information to D.C.S. equipment. This information can be divided into the following types:
•
measurement information and failure signalling
As far as measurement information
