HART Multiplexer System KFD*-HM*-16
Mounting and Installation
4.6 Connecting the Termination Board
Danger!
Explosion hazard from using of non-intrinsically safe circuits in intrinsically safe circuits
Using non-intrinsically safe devices in intrinsically safe circuits suspends the type of
protection. This can ignite the surrounding potentially explosive atmosphere.
Do not use HART multiplexer devices and HART termination boards in intrinsically safe
circuits.
Danger!
Explosion hazard from live wiring of circuits
If you connect or disconnect energized circuits in a potentially explosive atmosphere, sparks
can ignite the surrounding atmosphere.
Only connect or disconnect energized circuits in the absence of a potentially explosive
atmosphere.
Danger!
Danger to life from electric shock
Absent or insufficient insulation can result in electric shock.
Only connect supplies that provide protection against electric shock to power feed modules
(e. g. SELV or PELV).
Danger!
Danger to life from electric shock
Absent or insufficient insulation can result in electric shock.
•
Maintain sufficient distance between the connection lines, terminals, housing, and
the environment.
• Insulate connection lines, terminals, and the housing from the environment.
Danger!
Danger to life from incorrect installation
Incorrect installation of cables and connection lines can compromise the function and
the electrical safety of the device.
•
Observe the permissible core cross section of the conductor.
• When using stranded conductors, crimp wire end ferrules on the conductor ends.
• Use only one conductor per terminal.
• When installing the conductors the insulation must reach up to the terminal.
• Observe the tightening torque of the terminal screws.
