Precautions about Connecting the Screw Clamp
Connectors
Connection of a transducer to a Vibration Transducer Interface module is through the
hazardous area screw clamp connector.
1)
Screw Clamp Connector
2)
Vibration Transducer Interface module
WARNING
An explosion may occur if the screw clamp connector touches an
unprotected safe-area component.
If you install or remove the screw clamp connector while power is on, support the
connector so that it cannot touch the backplane or the safe-area circuits. Contact
between the screw clamp connector and the backplane may bypass the essential
segregation between safe-area and hazardous-area circuits.
