For	combined	approval	types
Once	a	device	of	multiple	approval	type	is	installed,	
it	should	not	be	re-installed	using	any	other	approval	
types.	Apply	a	permanent	mark	in	the	check	box	of	
the	selected	approval	type	on	the	certification	label	on	
the	transmitter	to	distinguish	it	from	unused	approval	
types.

Note 3. Installation
• Barrier must be installed in an enclosure that
meets the requirements of ANSI/ISA S82.01.
• Control equipment connected to barrier must not
use or generate more than 250 V rms or V dc.
• Installation should be in accordance with ANSI/ISA
RP12.6	“Installation	of	Intrinsically	Safe	Systems	
for	Hazardous	(Classified)	Locations”	and	the	
National	Electric	Code	(ANSI/NFPA	70).
• The configuration of associated apparatus must be
FMRC Approved.
• Dust-tight conduit seal must be used when
installed	in	a	Class	II,	III,	Group	E,	F	and	G	
environments.
• Associated apparatus manufacturer’s installation
drawing	must	be	followed	when	installing	this	
apparatus.
• The maximum power delivered from the barrier
must not exceed 1 W.
• Note a warning label worded “SUBSTITUTION
OF	COMPONENTS	MAY	IMPAIR	INTRINSIC	
SAFETY,”	and	“INSTALL	IN	ACCORDANCE	WITH	
DOC.	No.	IFM022-A12”
Note 4. Maintenance and Repair
• The instrument modification or parts replacement
