Apparatus
Parameters
The Intrinsically Safe Apparatus Parameters are defined as follows.
Parameter Description
Vmax
Maximum safe voltage which can be applied to the apparatus
terminals.
Imax
Maximum safe current which can be applied to the apparatus
terminals.
Ci
Unprotected capacitance in the apparatus which can be
considered present at the terminals.
Li
Unprotected inductance in the apparatus which can be
considered present at the terminals.
The Associated Apparatus Parameters are defined as follows.
Parameter Description
Voc
Maximum output voltage which can be delivered to the
hazardous (classified) location. This voltage is the maximum
from a single channel.
Isc
Maximum output current which can be delivered to the
hazardous (classified) location. This current is the maximum
from a single channel.
*Vt
Maximum output voltage which can be delivered to the
hazardous (classified) location. This voltage is the maximum
across any combination of terminals of a multiple channel
configuration.
*It
Maximum output current which can be delivered to the
hazardous (classified) location. This current is the maximum
through any combination of terminals of a multiple channel
configuration.
Ca
Maximum capacitance which can be connected to the
apparatus.
La
Maximum inductance which can be connected to the
apparatus.
*
CSA does not recognize these parameters at this time.
