(SEE NOTE 1)
Note 1. Only shielded twisted pair
cables should be used for
connections. Shields should be
left open at the field end and
connected to chassis ground at
the ground screws on the backplane.
Note 3. Pins marked “N/C” (Not
Connected) are not electronically
connected to the module.
Note 4. Only Quantum
140 XBP 0X 00 backplanes should
be used for mounting this module.
NON-HAZARDOUS LOCATIONNotes related to
CSA certification
for this module.
Note 1. Entity parameters per
channel: Voc = 15.5 V
Isc= 123 mA
Ca = 0.47 μf
La = 1.0 mH
Note 2. Maximum non-
hazardous area voltage must
not exceed 250 V.
Note 4. Install in accordance
with the NEC (ANSI/NFPA 70)
and ANSI/ISA RP 12.6 for
installation in the United States.
Note 5. To maintain intrinsic
safety, shield for each cable
must be grounded and must
extend as close to the terminals
as possible.
Note 6. Intrinsically Safe (I.S)
cables of one module must be
routed separately from I.S.
cables of another module.
Note 7. I.S. devices when
connected to I.S. terminals must
