Hazardous Location Installations - For USA and Canada
General
The PS-B unit has been designed with the intention of meeting the requirements of
Class I, Division 2 hazardous location applications. Division 2 locations are those
locations where ignitable concentrations of flammable substances are normally
confined, prevented by ventilation, or present in an adjacent Class I, Division 1
location, but where an abnormal situation might result in intermittent exposure to
such ignitable concentrations.
While the PS-B unit is a non-incendive device under ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 and CSA
C22.2 N
°213, it is not designed for, and should never be used within a Division 1
(normally hazardous) location.
PS-B units are suitable for use in Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, and D
hazardous locations or in non-hazardous locations. Before installing or using your
PS-B unit, confirm that the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 or CSA C22.2 N
°213 certification
appears on the product labeling
NOTE: Some PS-B units are not yet rated as suitable for use in hazardous locations.
Always use your product in conformance with the product labeling and this manual.
