2.8 Installation of an Explosion-
Protected Instrument
If a customer makes a repair or modification to an
intrinsically safe instrument and the instrument is
not restored to its original condition, its intrinsically
safe construction may be compromised and the
instrument may be hazardous to operate. Please
contact Yokogawa before making any repair or
modification to an instrument.
CAUTION
This instrument has been tested and certified
as being intrinsically safe. Please note that
severe restrictions apply to this instrument’s
construction, installation, external wiring,
maintenance and repair. A failure to abide by
these restrictions could make the instrument a
hazard to operate.
WARNING
The battery pack may be replaced in a
hazardous area. The battery pack has
surface resistivity greater than 1G ohm and
must be properly installed in the enclosure
of the transmitter. Care must be taken during
transportation to and from the point of installation
to prevent electrostatic charge build-up.
