Operational Cautions for Intrinsic Safe Equipment
Warnings for Radios Approved as Intrinsically Safe
Radios must ship from the Motorola manufacturing facility with the
hazardous atmosphere capability and the intrinsic safety approval
labelling (FM, UL, CSA, CENELEC). Radios will not be upgraded to
this capability and labeled once they have been shipped to the field.
• DO NOT operate radio communications equipment in a
hazardous atmosphere unless it is a type especially
qualified (for example, FM, UL, CSA, or CENELEC
approved). An explosion or fire may result.
• DO NOT operate a radio unit that has been approved as
intrinsically safe product in a hazardous atmosphere if it
has been physically damaged (for example, cracked
housing). An explosion or fire may result.
• DO NOT replace or charge batteries in a hazardous
atmosphere. Contact sparking may occur while installing
or removing batteries and cause an explosion or fire.
