Hazardous Area Approvals and Special Instructions
for “Safe Use” and Installations in Hazardous Locations
Certain nameplates may carry more than one approval, and each approval may have unique installation/wiring
requirements and/or conditions of “safe use”. These special instructions for “safe use” are in addition to, and may
override, the standard installation procedures. Special instructions are listed by approval type.
Note
This information supplements the nameplate markings affixed to the product and the DVC6200 Series quick start guide
(D103556X012
Always refer to the nameplate itself to identify the appropriate certification.

Special Conditions of Safe Use
D When product is used with natural gas as the pneumatic medium, the maximum working pressure of the natural
gas supply shall be limited to 10 bar (145 psi).
D When product is used with natural gas as the pneumatic medium the product shall not be permitted in a Class I,
Division 2, Group A, B, C, D location without the proper venting installation per the manufacturer's instruction
manual.
D The apparatus enclosure contains aluminum and is considered to constitute a potential risk of ignition by impact
or friction. Care must be taken into account during installation and use to prevent impact or friction.
