OPERATIONAL & SAFETY NOTICES

 

Professional installation required. The radio equipment 
described in this guide emits radio frequency energy. 
Although the power level is low, the concentrated 
energy from a directional antenna may pose a health 
hazard. Do not allow people to come closer than 23 cm 
(9 inches) to the antenna when the transmitter is oper-
ating in indoor or outdoor environments. More informa-
tion on RF exposure is available on the Internet at 
www.fcc.gov/oet/info/documents/bulletins.

 

Installation in Hazardous Locations

 

The transceiver is not acceptable as a stand-alone unit for use in hazardous locations. 
It must either be mounted within another piece of equipment which is certified for 
hazardous locations, or installed within guidelines, or conditions of approval set forth 
below:

1. The transceiver must be mounted within a separate enclosure which is suitable for 

the intended application.

2. The antenna feedline, DC power cable and interface cable must be routed through 

conduit in accordance with applicable electrical codes.

3. Installation, operation and maintenance of the transceiver should be in accordance 

with the transceiver's manual, and applicable electrical codes.

4. Tampering or replacement with non-factory components may adversely affect the 

safe use of the transceiver in hazardous locations, and may void the approval.

5. A power connector with screw-type retaining screws as supplied by the 

manufacturer must be used.

6. Articles 500 through 502 of the National Electrical Code (NFPA 70) provide fur-

ther information on hazardous locations and approved wiring methods.

 

Do not connect or disconnect equipment unless 
power has been switched off or the area is 
known to be non-hazardous.

Refer to Articles 500 through 502 of the National 
Electrical Code (NFPA 70) for further information 
on hazardous locations and approved Division 2 
wiring methods.
