Chapter 8
Hazardous Area Installation
This chapter covers requirements for installing the instrument in hazardous
area applications. Hazardous area certification for North America is
provided by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). Certification for
Europe is provided by Laboratoire Central des Industries Electrique
(LCIE).
General
The area classification determines the type of enclosure to be used and if
barriers are required. If barriers are required, they are installed by the
factory to meet the appropriate agency certification. The standard enclosure
for the instrument is a NEMA 4X (IP65). The instrument is also available
in an optional, factory-installed NEMA 7 explosion proof enclosure. If
transducers are approved for use in hazardous areas, a log of the certifying
agency is affixed to the transducers.
North American
Certification
The transducers are certified by CSA as follows:
●
Intrinsically safe (IS) transducer for Class I and II, Div. 1, Groups
C, D, E, F, G (IS barriers required)
●
Non-incendive for the following areas (IS barriers not required):
- Class I, Div. 2, Groups A, B, C, D
- Class II, Div. 2, Groups E, F, G
The table below lists CSA’s hazardous area installation requirements for
North America.
