Power repeaters KLD2-PR-Ex1.IEC and KLD2-PR-Ex1.IEC1 are related apparatus
as defined by EN 50020 and may only be installed outside the area subject to the risk
of explosion.
Power repeaters KLD2-PR2-Ex1.IEC and KLD2-PR2-Ex1.IEC1 are approved for in-
stallation in Zone 2.
The KLD2-PR-NI1.IEC power repeater and KLD2-STR-NI1.13.225.IEC
power supply are approved for installation in Class 1 Division 2.
The intrinsically safe PROFIBUS PA or FOUNDATION Fieldbus cannot be taken into
the area subject to the risk of explosion. The connection of the intrinsically safe bus
is made exclusively with the blue removable connection terminals of power repeaters
KLD2-PR-Ex1.IEC or KLD2-PR-Ex1.IEC1.
Protection of operating personnel and the system is only ensured if the
sub-assembly is used in accordance with the usage for which it is pro-
perly intended.
The device can only be operated by trained professionals in accor-
dance with the available instruction manual.
Any other type of operation than what is described in this manual places
the safety and functionality of the device and systems connected to it in
question.
Only professionals trained in electronics are permitted to connect the
device and to perform maintenance tasks with the power on.
If malfunctions cannot be corrected, the device must be taken out of
operation and protected from being placed back in operation acciden-
tally.
Repairs may only be performed directly at the manufacturer's facility.
No changes and operations made to the device are permitted and will
render any warrantee claim void.
Responsibility for adhering to local safety regulations and directives is
held by the operator.
The K
LD2-PR-NI1.IEC and KLD2-STR-NI1.13.225.IEC are listed in the
"Non incendive“ ignition protection class and may only be used where
FM or CSA authorization is permitted. If this is the case, devices in
Class 1 Division 2 can be used.
