Appendix B: MNU IS Barrier Notes
Devices rated Intrinsically Safe for use in hazardous locations require the use of barriers to limit the total
amount of electrical and thermal energy present in the device and circuit within the the hazardous area.
The allowable limits--called entity parameters--for the MNU IS, as determined by CSA, are listed on drawing
9005002.
Barriers for Modbus devices are more difficult to deal with than 4-20 mA devices, as the limits are stated in
total but must account for both the supply voltage and the communication signal. This can be accomplished
with one barrier or two.
Below is an example of using two barriers, and their resultant entity parameters, which together meet CSA’s
requirements for use with the MNU IS.


IMPORTANT : To meet Intrinsically Safe installation requirements, barrier(s) used must
meet “Associated Apparatus with Entity Parameters” shown in drawing 9005002.

IMPORTANT : Case ground of IS barrier(s) must be connected to Equipment Ground
on supply side.
