examination certificate must be obeyed.
•
Beside the instructions for electrical installations in non-hazardous locations according to
the applicable national standard (equivalent to HD 384 or IEC 60364, e.g. VDE 0100),
especially the regulations in EN/IEC 60079-14 "Electrical installations in hazardous
locations", equivalent national standard (e.g. DIN VDE 0165 Part 1) or dust hazardous areas
such as EN 61241-14 must be complied with!
•
Installation, establishment, utilisation and maintenance are only allowed to be executed by
personnel with an education in explosion safety!
These additional instructions are an extension to the handbook. All technical information as
described in the handbook is applicable, when not specifically excluded, completed or replaced
by the instructions in these additional instructions.

1.5 IFC 300 F / PF
The IFC 300 F/PF is certified as group II, category 2G equipment, if fitted without Ex ia signal
in/outputs or as a group II, category 2(1)G equipment, if fitted with Ex ia signal inputs/outputs.
It is therefore suitable for installation in gas hazardous areas zone 1 or 2, gas group IIC,
temperature class T6.
Additionally, The Ex ia signal in/outputs of the converter may run or originate from a zone 0 gas
hazardous area.
In the IFC 300 F / PF signal converter the following types of protections are used:
Converter housing, terminal compartment:
• Power supply (terminals L, N, PE or L+, L-), in type of protection Increased safety (Ex e):
Un = 100...230 VAC or 24 VAC/DC or 12...24 VDC.
• Signal I/O (terminals A, A+, A-, B, B-, C, C-, D and D- ), in type of protection Increased safety
(Ex e) or - optional - Intrinsic safety (Ex ia).
For certain versions of the signal converter the terminals A, A+, A-, B, B-, C, C-, D and D- are
additionally in type of protection Intrinsic safety. Consult the table with CG numbers in the
handbook of the IFC 300 for details.
