For most non-voltage-producin
g devices located in a hazardous area, a single zener barrier that is negative-earth-groun
ded can be used for intrinsic safety.
Instrumentation that produces an output (signal conditioners) usually requires two barriers, one for each "floating" lead. In this case, select one of the 54800 Series dual channel barriers shown here.
Any non-voltage-producin
g sensor or switch is rendered intrinsically safe for hazardous locations when properly connected to the output of these Zener Barriers.
Intrinsic safety with solid-state reliability
Since no explosion-proof enclosures are needed for sensor wiring, these units further provide economical installation
With encapsulated construction, 54800 Series Barriers are impervious to dust and moisture
Optional clip available for rail mounting
