Caution

 

If using in Division 2 or Zone 2 hazardous

locations applications, do not connect the NI 9212 and
TB-9212 to signals or use for measurements within
Measurement Categories II, III, or IV.

Note

 

Measurement Categories CAT I and CAT O are

equivalent. These test and measurement circuits are not
intended for direct connection to the MAINS building
installations of Measurement Categories CAT II,
CAT III, or CAT IV.

Measurement Category II is for measurements performed on
circuits directly connected to the electrical distribution system.
This category refers to local-level electrical distribution, such as
that provided by a standard wall outlet, for example, 115 V for
U.S. or 230 V for Europe.

Caution

 

Do not connect the NI 9212 and TB-9212 to

signals or use for measurements within Measurement
Categories III or IV.

Safety Guidelines for Hazardous Locations

The NI 9212 is suitable for use in Class I, Division 2, Groups A,
B, C, D, T4 hazardous locations; Class I, Zone 2, AEx nA IIC T4
