8. Information on mounting and operation in
hazardous areas (Europe)
In hazardous areas, only use temperature transmitters that are
approved for those hazardous areas. The approval is marked on the
product label.

8.2 Specific conditions for safe use
T24.10.xx2
: Transmitters in a hazardous area should only be powered
by associated intrinsically safe apparatus that are approved for the
relevant hazardous area. The temperature transmitter must be mounted
in an enclosure that meets a minimum ingress protection of IP 20 per
EN 60529/IEC 529.
T24.10.xx2 for category II 1G/IIC in addition
: The surface of
the casing is not conductive. The temperature transmitter must be
mounted in such a way that no electrostatic charging can occur. This is
ensured, for example, by mounting the transmitter into an electrically-
conductive connection head.
