Hazardous Locations Installation
Pro-face
designed the KPM(T) monitors to meet the requirements of
Class I and II, Division 2 Hazardous Locations applications. Division 2 locations are
those locations that are normally non-hazardous, but could become hazardous due to
accidents that may expose the area to flammable vapors, gases or combustible dusts.
These systems have been designed as non-incendiary devices. They are not
intrinsically safe and should never be operated within a Division 1 (normally
hazardous) location when installed as described here. Nor should any peripheral
interface device attached to these systems be located within Division 1 locations
unless approved and/or certified diode barriers are placed in series with each
individual signal and DC power line. Any such installations are beyond the bounds of
Pro-face
design intent.
Pro-face
accepts no responsibility for installations
of this equipment or any devices attached to this equipment in Division 1 locations.
Note
When additional cards are added, it is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that the
cards chosen meet operating conditions for Class I and II, Division 2 Hazardous
Locations
.
Additions and/or modifications without express consent from UL and/or
Pro-face
will void Hazardous Locations compliance.
It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that the product is properly rated for
the location. If the intended location does not presently have a Class, Division, and
Group rating, then users should consult the appropriate authorities having jurisdiction
in order to determine the correct rating for that hazardous location.
In accordance with Federal, State/Provincial, and local regulations, all Hazardous
Locations installations should be inspected by the appropriate authority having
jurisdiction prior to use. Only technically qualified personnel should install, service,
and inspect these systems.
Warning
In order to maintain a safe condition, do not use an external keyboard or mouse when
the unit is operating in a hazardous environment.
