Safety notices when using the device according to Hazardous Locations (HazLoc) and FM.
If you use the device under HazLoc or FM conditions you must also keep to the following safety
notices in addition to the general safety notices for protection against explosion:
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD
You may only connect or disconnect cables carrying electricity when the power supply is
switched off or when the device is in an area without inflammable gas concentrations.
WARNING

Do not disconnect equipment when a flammable or combustible atmosphere is present.
Safety notices for use according to ATEX and IECEx
If you use the device under ATEX or IECEx conditions you must also keep to the following safety
notices in addition to the general safety notices for protection against explosion:
WARNING
Take measures to prevent transient voltage surges of more than 40% of the rated voltage. This
is the case if you only operate devices with SELV (safety extra-low voltage).
WARNING
Provisions shall be made to prevent the rated voltage from being exceeded by transient
disturbances of more than 119 V.
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD
Do not press the RESET button if there is a potentially explosive atmosphere.
WARNING
Safety notice for connecting with a LAN ID (Local Area Network)
A LAN or LAN segment with all the interconnected devices should be contained completely in
a single low voltage power distribution in a building. The LAN is designed either for
“Environment A” according to IEEE802.3 or "Environment 0" according to IEC TR 62102.
Do not connect any electrical connectors directly to the telephone network (telephone network
voltage) or a WAN (Wide Area Network).
