Hazardous Location Installations - For USA and Canada
General
The Industrial Personal Computer 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 Industrial Personal Computer 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.
This equipment is 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
Industrial Personal Computer, confirm that the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 or
CSA C22.2 N
213 certification appears on the product labeling
NOTE: Some Industrial Personal Computer devices are not yet rated as suitable for
use in hazardous locations. Always use your product in conformance with the
product labeling and this manual.
