General Information
The GAI-Tronics Model 262-001 Indoor and Model 272-001 Outdoor Intrinsically-Safe (I.S.) Telephones
are designed to be installed in hazardous areas.
The Model 263-000 Isolation Barrier Unit
(IBU) or rack-mount card unit is placed in a
non-hazardous area up to one mile from the
telephone. This limits the energy levels going
to the hazardous area.
For convenience, an I.S. telephone and the
IBU can be purchased together under a single
model number—Model 261-001 for indoor
use and Model 271-001 for outdoors.
However, for rack-mount configurations or
special applications, the telephones and IBU
can be purchased separately.
These telephones are constructed of durable
glass-reinforced polyester, which is highly
resistant to chemicals and weather. The
Model 272-001 Outdoor I.S. Telephone is
rated Type 3R (rainproof).
