CSA Certification
In many cases Rockwell Automation pursues applicable CSA
certifications for its products. CSA certifies products for general
use as well as for use in hazardous locations. Products in this
catalog might be certified in one of these two ways:
y CSA Certification (CSA): The product is certified by the
Canadian Standards Association for use in Non-hazardous
Locations.
y CSA Class I, Division 2 Hazardous Location Certification: The
product is listed by the Canadian Standards Association as
certified for use in Class I, Division 2, Group A, B, C, D, or
non-hazardous locations.
Although Rockwell Automation is only using the Class I Division
2 Group A, B, C, D designation on its products, it should be noted
that this hazardous location classification is equivalent to the
internationally defined Class I Zone 2 Group IIC area
classification (see IEC publication 60079-10). Therefore, products
labeled Class I Division 2 Group A, B, C, D may be used in Class
I Zone 2 Group IIC environments.
Actual CSA certification is indicated by the marking on the
product, and not by statements in this catalog or any product
literature.
FM Approval
A limited number of Allen-Bradley branded products have Factory
Mutual Approval. FM approves products for use in general as well
as hazardous locations.
y FM Class I Division 2 Hazardous Location Approval: The
product is approved by Factory Mutual Research Corporation for
use in Class I, Division 2, Group A, B, C, and D, or non-
hazardous locations only.
Although Rockwell Automation is only using the Class I Division
2 Group A, B, C, D designation on its products, it should be noted
that this hazardous location classification is equivalent to the
internationally defined Class I Zone 2 Group IIC area
classification (see IEC publication 60079-10). Therefore, products
labeled Class I Division 2 Group A, B, C, D may be used in Class
I Zone 2 Group IIC environments.
Actual FM Approval is indicated by the marking on the
product, and not by statements in this catalog or any product
literature.
