DC-UPS 

 

Notes for use in hazardous location areas: 

The DC-UPS is suitable for use in Class I Division 2 Groups A, B, C, D locations and for use in Group II Category 3 (Zone 
2) environments and are evaluated according to EN 60079-0 and EN 60079-15. 

WARNING EXPLOSION HAZARDS!  

Substitution of components may impair suitability for this environment. Do not disconnect the unit or change unit 
settings unless power has been switched off or the area is known to be non-hazardous.  

A suitable enclosure must be provided for the end product which has a minimum protection of IP54 and fulfils the 
requirements of the EN 60079-15.
