WARNING
~
To avoid the risk of electric shock and fire, the safety instructions of this guide must be observed
and the guidelines followed. The specifications must not be exceeded, and the device must only be
applied as described in the following. Prior to the commissioning of the device, this installation guide must
be examined carefully. Only qualified personnel (technicians) should install this device. If the equipment
is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment may be
impaired. Until the device is installed, do not connect hazardous voltages to the device.
In applications where hazardous voltage is connected to in /outputs of the device, sufficient spacing
or isolation from wires, terminals and enclosure to surroundings (incl. neighboring devices), must be
ensured to maintain protection against electric shock.
Potential electrostatic charging hazard. To avoid the risk of explosion due to electrostatic charging
of the enclosure, do not handle the units unless the area is known to be safe, or appropriate safety
measures are taken to avoid electrostatic discharge.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Receipt and unpacking
Unpack the device without damaging it. The packing should always follow the device until it has been
permanently mounted. Check at the receipt of the device whether the type corresponds to the one ordered.
Environment
Avoid direct sunlight, dust, high temperatures, mechanical vibrations and shock, as well as rain and heavy
moisture. If necessary, heating in excess of the stated limits for ambient temperatures should be avoided
by way of ventilation. All devices can be used for Measurement / Overvoltage Category II and Pollution
Degree 2. The module is designed to operate safely at an altitude of 2000m or less.
Mounting
Mounting and connection of the device should comply with national legislation for mounting of electric
materials, i.e. wire cross section, protective fuse, and location. Descriptions of input / output and supply
connections are shown in this installation guide and on the side label.
The device is provided with field wiring terminals and shall be supplied from a power supply having
double or reinforced insulation. A power switch should be easily accessible and close to the device. The
power switch shall be marked as the disconnecting unit for the device.
The
SC6 Series
must be mounted on a DIN rail that complies with EN 60715.
UL installation
Use 60/75°C copper conductors only.
Wire size ...................................... AWG 26-12
UL file number............................. E498965
The device is an Open Type Listed Process Control Equipment. To prevent injury resulting from access-
ability to live parts the equipment must be installed in an enclosure.
The Division 2 or Zone 2 power supply unit must comply with NEC Class 2, as described by the National
Electrical Code® (ANSI / NFPA 70).
cFMus installation in Division 2 or Zone 2
FM18US0045X ......................... Cl. I, Div. 2, Group A, B, C, D T4
or Cl. I, Zone 2, AEx nA IIC T4
FM18CA0023X ......................... Cl. I, Div. 2, Group A, B, C, D T4
or Cl. I, Zone 2, Ex nA IIC T4
In class I, Division 2 or Zone 2 installations, the subject equipment shall be mounted within a tool secured
enclosure which is capable of accepting one or more of Class I, Division 2 wiring methods specified in the
National Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA 70) or in Canada in the Canadian Electrical Code (C22.1).
The SC6 Series Isolators and Converters must be connected to limited output NEC Class 2 circuits, as
outlined in the National Electrical Code® (ANSI / NFPA 70), only. If the devices are connected to a
redundant power supply (two separate power supplies), both must meet this requirement.
Where installed in outdoor or potentially wet locations the enclosure shall at a minimum meet the require-
ments of IP54.
Warning:
Substitution of components may impair suitability for zone 2 / division 2.
Warning:
To prevent ignition of explosive atmospheres, disconnect power before servicing and do not
separate connectors when energized and an explosive gas mixture is present.
Warning:
Do not mount or remove devices from the power rail when an explosive gas mixture is present.
Cleaning
When disconnected, the device may be cleaned with a cloth moistened with distilled water.
