DANGER!
Risk of explosion by connection to non-intrinsically-safe and associated
equipment.
When operating the EK205 in an area at risk of explosion (zones 0, 1 or 2) and
connecting devices without certification as an "associated piece of equipment",
there is a risk of explosion.
Therefore:
–
When used in an area at risk of explosion, connect the EK205 to certified,
associated pieces of equipment only in accordance with the valid rules of the
art stated in the design test certificates.
– Connect the EK205 only to intrinsically safe pieces of equipment whose
electric data correspond to the requirements stated in the design test
certificates of the EK205 (see chapter 9.3).
DANGER!
Risk of explosion from use of wrong batteries.
Use only batteries stated in the design test certificates of the EK205 (see
chapter 9.3). Order number, see section 9.1.4.
During connection and operation of the EK205 in areas at risk of gas explosion,
observe the associated norms:
DIN EN 60079-0
The device may only be used in an area at risk of gas explosion if the
installation is carried out in accordance with the general requirements of DIN EB
60079-0 and the operating conditions (see chapter Technical data) and
connection conditions (see chapter Installation, connection and commissioning)
are observed.
The device can be hazardous if it is used by staff not trained correctly in an improper or
