Since the intrinsically safe circuits are direct-connected to earth, equipotential bonding must be maintained during complete installation ofthe intrinsically safe circuits.■ All current safety and accident prevention regulations must be observed.■ Units must only be operated after proper installation.■ It must be possible to de-energise the products at any time (in fixed installations by means ofan mains switch or fuse which isolates each of the supply cables). The PE terminals on theback of the unit must be connected to the protective earth conductor.■ It must be ensured that supply voltage is the same as that stated in this manual and that thetolerances are adhered to.■ Malfunctions may occur if the stated tolerances are either exceeded or are insufficient.■ Steps must be taken to ensure that the system is not put into hazardous, undefined states inthe event of power failures.■ EMERGENCY STOP switches must remain effective in all operating modes and conditions.■ Connection cables (especially data transmission cables) must be selected and installed so asto preclude impairment of the system’s functionality by capacitive or inductive interference.Appropriate measures must be taken to deal with open circuit states in such a way that thesystem cannot enter undefined states■ Wherever malfunctions are liable to cause injury to persons or damage to propertyadditional external safety circuits must be installed (e.g. limit switches, mechanicalinterlocks, etc.)
