III.d  … adjustment 

No Ex-relevant equipment is required for operating the isolating amplifier. 

III.e  … putting into service 

Before putting into service, all devices must be checked of right installation and connection. The electrical 

supply, as well as connected devices, must be checked. 

III.f  … maintenance (servicing and emergency repair) 

The isolating amplifier is generally maintenance-free. In case of a defect, it must be send back to FAFNIR or 

one of its representations. 
There is consistency with the requirements for the dielectric strength (according to EN 60079-11, clause 

6.3.13) between the intrinsically safe sensor circuits and the auxiliary energy as well as the communication 

connection.
