2.7.4 TIISCertication
a)  TIIS Flameproof Type
The model YTA /JF3 temperature transmitter, which 
has obtained certication according to technical 
criteria for explosion-protected construction of 
electric machinery and equipment (Standards 
Notication No.556 from the Japanese Ministry of 
Labor) conforming to IEC standards, is designed 
for hazardous areas where explosive gases and/or 
inammable vapors may be present. (This allows 
installation in Division 1 and 2 areas) To preserve 
the safety of ameproof equipment requires 
great care during mounting, wiring, and piping. 
Safety requirements also place restrictions on 
maintenance and repair activities. Users absolutely 
must read “Installation and Operating Precautions 
for TIIS Flameproof Equipment” at the end of this 
manual.
WARNING
The terminal cover should not be opened at least 
for three minutes after the power is turned off. 
The terminal section of the ameproof YTA 
series is made of resin-lled, explosion-
protected construction. The technical standards 
for this ameproof construction require that 
the possibility of explosion resulting from a 
prospective short-circuit current*
1
 of up to 4000 
A be prevented even for cases when external 
power supply circuits are short-circuited 
accidentally.
Install a fuse or a circuit breaker having a 
breaking capacity of at least 4000 A in the higher-
order power line connected to the YTA series. 
The breaking capacity refers to the upper limit 
of current that can be cut off. Normally, a fuse 
or a circuit breaker having a breaking capacity 
of greater than 5000 A is used in power supply 
circuits. Conrm that this is true with your factory. 
No extra measures need be taken after the 
conrmation.
Note that the rated current of the YTA series in 
terms of explosion protection is 4 to 20 mA; keep 
the input current of the YTA series within the 
appropriate range.
*1:  Refers to a current that ows when a fuse in a circuit is 
substituted with a connecting metal piece having virtually 
no impedance and the circuit is then shorted. For AC 
circuits, this current is represented by a root-mean-square 
value (JIS C6575).
2.7.5 IECExCertication
a)  IECEx Intrinsic safety “ia”
Caution for IECEx Intrinsic safety “ia”.
Note 1. Model YTA110/SU2, YTA310/SU2, and 
YTA320/SU2 temperature transmitters are 
applicable for use in hazardous locations:
•  No
. Certicate: IECEx KEM 09.0032X
•  Applicable standard: IEC60079-11:2011, 
IEC60079-0:2011, IEC60079-26:2006
•  Type of Protection and Marking Code: 
Ex ia IIC T4...T5 Ga
•  Ambient Temperature:  
-40 to 70°C for T4, -40 to 50°C for T5
•  Enclosure: IP67
Note 2. Electrical Data
•  [Supply circuit (Terminals: + and –)]
  Ui = 30 V, Ii = 165 mA, Pi = 900 mW
  Effective internal capacitance, Ci = 20 nF
  Effective internal inductance, Li = 730 μH
•  [Sensor circuit (Terminals: 1 to 5)]
  Uo = 9 V Io = 40 mA Po = 90 mW
  Max. allowed external capacitance, Co = 0.7 μF
  Max. allowed external inductance, Lo = 10 mH
Note 3. Installation
•  All wiring shall comply with local installation 
requirements. (Refer to the installation diagram)
Note 4. Operation
•  Keep strictly the “WARNING” on the label on 
the transmitter.
WARNING: POTENTIAL ELECTROSTATIC 
CHARGING HAZARD. SEE 
USER’S MANUAL BEFORE USE.
Note 5. Maintenance and Repair
•  The instrument modication or parts 
replacement by other than authorized 
representative of Yokogawa Electric 
Corporation is prohibited and will void IECEx 
Certication.
Note 6. Conditions of Certication
•  Because the enclosure of the Temperature 
Transmitter is made of aluminium, if it is mounted 
in zone 0, it must be installed such, that, even in 
the event of rare incidents, ignition sources due 
to impact and friction sparks are excluded.
•  Avoid any actions that cause the generation of 
electrostatic charge on the non-metallic parts, 
such as rubbing with a dry cloth on coating face 
of product.
