Installation
For Intrinsically Safe (IS) installation, special considerations are
required. The 2000 XTC Therm al Condu ctivity Transmitter has been
designed to be Intrinsically Safe using an integral galvanic isolator module
that limits power to and from the transm itter in a ha zardous location. When
properly installed, this design utilizes redundant safety features to prevent
the transmitter from becom ing an ignition source in the ev ent of a circuit
failure. There are various regulations and specifications relating to
intrinsically safe instrumentat ion and th e user shou ld consult w ith the
proper certifying agency prior to installation. Using the integral galvan ic
isolator reduces the possibility of fires or explosion stemming from power
circuitry associated wi th the transm itter in hazardous lo cations by limiting
the energy available for ignition. This instrument must be installed properly
and all cables, wires, co nnectors and solenoid valves (if equipped) must be
approved by the proper certifying agency. Th e configuration and associated
approval of this unit is based on the user’s application as specified at the
time of purchase. Consult the spare parts list in this manual or the factory
for approved replacem ent parts for this instrument.
