ImPORTANT SAFETy NOTES

Warning

Do not apply power to the system with the
enclosure cover removed unless the area has
been de-classified. Do not open the enclosure in a
hazardous area when power is applied.

CaUTiOn

The wiring procedures in this manual are intended
to ensure proper functioning of the device under
normal conditions. However, because of the
many variations in wiring codes and regulations,
total compliance to these ordinances cannot be
guaranteed. Be certain that all wiring complies
with applicable regulations that relate to the
installation of electrical equipment in a hazardous
area. If in doubt, consult a qualified official before
wiring the system.

The Infiniti contains semiconductor devices
that are susceptible to damage by electrostatic
discharge. An electrostatic charge can build
up on the skin and discharge when an object is
touched. Therefore, use caution when handling
the device, taking care not to touch the terminals
or electronic components. Observe the normal
precautions for handling electrostatic sensitive
devices.

To minimize the risk of damage, handle the
transmitter module by the edges only. Do not
touch the circuit board, or electronic components.

The fault detection circuitry does not monitor the
operation of external response equipment or the
external wiring to these devices. It is important
that these devices be checked periodically to
ensure that they are operational.

Exercise caution if an over-range reading is
indicated, since a dangerous condition could exist.

INSTALLATION

WIRING REQUIREMENTS
• Install per local installation practices and in

accordance with local authority having jurisdiction.

• See Figures 2 and 3 for wiring size and maximum

distance from the power supply to the transmitter.

iMPOrTanT

Proper installation practices must be followed
to ensure that condensation does not enter the
junction box and interfere with the electronic
circuitry. Refer to local installation codes.
