Safe Use
Before assembly
• Read and observe the safety notes in this manual.
• Ensure that the contents of this manual are fully understood by the personnel in
charge.
• Use the device in accordance with its intended and approved purpose only.
• Always consult with R. STAHL Schaltgeräte GmbH if using the device under operating
conditions not covered by the technical data.
• Make sure that the device is not damaged.
• We are not liable for damage caused by incorrect or unauthorised use of the device or
by non-compliance with this manual.
For mounting and installation
• Have mounting and installation performed only by qualified and authorised persons
(see "Qualification of the personnel" section).
• The device is only to be installed in zones for which it is suited based on its marking.
• During installation and operation, observe the information (characteristic values and
rated operating conditions) on the rating, data and information plates located on the
device.
• Before installation, make sure that the device is not damaged.
• When the 9182/.0-59-1. type variants are used, the maximum voltages and load
resistances must be considered.
• When used in Zones 2 and 22, the intrinsically safe devices of Zones 1, 0, 21 and
20 can be connected to the intrinsically safe signal circuits.
• The safety characteristic values of the connected field devices must correspond to the
specifications in the data sheet or in the EU Type Examination Certificate.
• Interconnecting several devices in a single intrinsically safe circuit can result in
different safety characteristic values. This may impair intrinsic safety!
• Electrical circuits with the "Ex i" type of protection can no longer be operated as circuits
with this protection type after being operated with circuits with other types of protection.
Commissioning, maintenance, repair
• Only have commissioning and repairs performed by qualified and authorised persons
(see "Personnel qualification" section).
