User Manual

Introduction 1-7
The 8000-FHK/FST-IM Monitor Assembly common line is
connected to the metal enclosure. Therefore, when it is
powered by the “External Power and Communications Unit”
(ExPAC), the Monitor Assembly shall be bonded to the ExPAC
ear t h with a conduc tor havi ng a minimum cro ss-sectional area
of 4 mm
2
, to achieve a resistance ≤1 Ω.
Other Conditions f or Sa fe Use
The ADS Model 8000-FST-IM shall use o nly the 12-volt IS
Battery Pack (ADS p/n 8000-0043) for internal power.
Only ADS-approved sensors shall be connected to the ADS
Model 8000-FST-IM: ADS sensor t ypes 8K-CS4 and 8K-CS5.
The only communication devices that may be connected to the
COMM + EXT PWR connector on the TRITON+ ar e the
USB Seria l Interface (ADS p/n 8000-0337), the
ExPAC/XBUS/XIO power cable (ADS p/n 8000-378-10/25),
the Direct Connect Interface ( ADS p/n 8000-0054), and the
Sampler Cable (ADS p/n 8000-0348).
Note: The Triton-Telog Comm Cable (ADS p/n 8000-
0054-01) also may be connected to the COMM + EXT
PWR co nnector on the TRITON+ to provide
communication between the Telog Ru-33 and the monitor.
However, b ecause the Ru-33 is not certified for IS
operation, an installation involving a connection between
these units will not b e c onsidered intrinsically safe, unless
the Telog unit is installed outside the hazardous area.
