safety instructions

8.1.

Danger!

Hazardous if used in explosion-risk area
Risk of explosion from electrical voltage!
The Power I/O Box Type 8643 is designed as ignition
protection type Ex-e (increased safety).

Before working on non-intrinsically safe circuits of the

Power I/O Box Type 8643, always switch off the

operating voltage of the system!

Danger of explosion due to internal charging of the
Power I/O Box Type 8643!
When the power supply to the Power I/O Box Type 8643
is switched off, the internally stored charge will not
be completely dissipated for 4 minutes. To prevent an
explosion, switch off the power supply before connecting
or disconnecting Ex-e terminals.

Do not remove the cover from the connection terminals

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 Examination 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-protected 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)

Warning!

Risk of injury from improper installation!

Installation may be carried out by authorized techni-

cians only and with the appropriate tools!
Observe the national regulations which apply to the

installation/operation of electrical equipment in areas

where there is a risk of explosions!

Risk of injury from unintentional activation of the
system and an uncontrolled restart!

Secure system from unintentional activation.

Following assembly, ensure a controlled restart.

note!

Electrostatic sensitive components / modules.
The Power I/O Box Type 8643 contains electronic com-
ponents which respond sensitively to electrostatic dis-
charge (ESD).
Contact with electrostatically charged persons or objects
is hazardous to these components. In the worst case
scenario, they will be destroyed immediately or will fail
after start-up.

Observe the requirements in accordance with EN 100

015 – 1 to minimize or avoid the possibility of damage
caused by sudden electrostatic discharge!
Do not touch the electronic components while the

power supply voltage is on!

Function restriction
The function of the device may be restricted without
potential equalisation.

Connect the earth terminal point on the housing to the

potential equalisation (PA).
