EXPLOSION-PROOF CONDUIT SEAL
When installed as explosion proof in a Division 1 Hazardous Location, keep
covers tight while the Transmitter is energized. Disconnect power to the
Transmitter in the non-hazardous area prior to removing end caps for service.
When installed as non-incendive equipment in a Division 2 hazardous location,
disconnect power to the Transmitter in the non-hazardous area, or determine
that the location is non-hazardous before disconnecting or connecting the
Transmitter wires.
Transmitters installed as explosion proof in Class I, Division 1, Group A Hazardous
(classified) locations in accordance with ANSI/NFPA 70, the US National Electrical
Code, require a LISTED explosion proof seal to be installed in the conduit, within 18
inches (457.2mm) of the Transmitter. Crouse-Hinds type EYS/EYD or EYSX/EYDX
are examples of LISTED explosion proof seals that meet this requirement.
Transmitters installed as explosion proof in Class I, Division 1, Group B, C or D
hazardous (classified) locations do not require that explosion proof seal be installed
in the conduit.
