To prevent an explosion, switch off the power supply
before connecting or disconnecting Ex-e terminals.

Do not remove the cover from the connection termi-

nals for Ex-e switching circuits until the connected

Ex-e circuits have been disconnected from the power

supply for longer than 4 minutes.
If using the 2-wire version in potentially explosive

areas, do not connect any cable to the Power 24 V

supply terminals!

Danger of explosion if the allowable ambient tem-
perature ranges are exceeded!

Observe the respective ambient temperature range

which is based on the type designation (e.g. 8643-2-

AL-KS-F-I/O), according to the table in the EC-Type

Examination Certificate (see Appendix / Type Examina-

tion Certificate).

Danger of explosion due to unauthorized combi-
nation of the ignition protection types!
Due to unauthorized combination of the ignition pro-
tection types, the device is not suitable for use in the
explosion-risk area. If the device is nevertheless used in
this area, there is a danger of explosion!

If the bus supply of the 4-wire version of the device

was operated once in ignition protection type of

increased safety (e), the bus supply may no longer be

intrinsically safe in the ignition protection type (i)
