2.2 Product specific safety notes
Approved for use in zone 2 hazardous areas
The AC adapter PSX2 supplies the power to the XS-X Ex2 precision balances for their intended
use in the Ex hazardous area classified as zone 2. In this zone, ignitable concentrations of
flammable gases, vapors or liquids are not likely to occur in normal operation, and if they do
occur, will exist for only a short period. The AC adapter can be installed inside or outside the Ex
hazardous area.
Use in zone 1 and 0 is not permitted.
General safety information
Your instrument corresponds to the state of the art technology and complies with all recognized safety rules,
however, certain hazards may arise in extraneous circumstances. Do not open the housing of the instrument: It
does not contain any parts which can be maintained, repaired or replaced by the user. If you ever have problems
with your instrument, contact your authorized METTLER TOLEDO dealer or service representative.
Always operate and use your instrument only in accordance with the instructions contained in this manual. The
instructions for setting up your new instrument must be strictly observed.

the same as your local power supply voltage.
Safety Information6 Precision Balances
WARNING
Heavy object
– Single person lift could cause injury.
– Do not move or lift this equipment without assistance.
CAUTION
Damage of device
– For use only in dry interior rooms.
– Do not use sharply pointed objects to operate the keyboard! Although your balance is very
ruggedly constructed, it is nevertheless a precision instrument. Treat it with corresponding care.
Safety instructions regarding installation and operation in the Ex hazardous area, zone 2
CAUTION
Safety instructions
– The installation may be performed only by a qualified electrician as described in this installation
information.
– Check whether special clothing or special tools are needed for work in the hazardous area of the
end-user and then wear or use these if required.
– Find out whether the use of certain electronic devices (cell phones, computers, etc.) is prohibited
in the hazardous area of the end-user, and then follow these regulations.
– Establishing and separating the connections to the power supply are exclusively the task of the
electrician(s) of the end user.
– Any modifications to the balance and AC adapter, as well as repairs to the assemblies, are
prohibited. These actions endanger the safety of the system, result in loss of the Ex Approval, and
nullify any warranty and product liability claims.
– Service work and repairs may be performed only by personnel authorized by METTLER TOLEDO.
– The classification as zone 2 must be confirmed by the regulatory body of your profession.
– Check that the balance and AC adapter are in perfect condition before putting into operation for the
first time and at least every 3 years.
– It is important to observe the European Directive on Equipment Intended for Use in Potentially
Explosive Atmospheres (94/9/CE)!
– Only accessories which are explicitly mentioned in this document may be used, and they must be
installed and operated as described here.
– Installation work on the balance must be carried out outside the hazardous area.
Safety Information 7Precision Balances
Safety measures during operation in the Ex hazardous area, zone 2
CAUTION
Damage of device
– AC adapter and balance may be operated only when the housing is closed.
– The instrument must only be cleaned with a damp cloth.
Note
– According to Directive 94/9/EU (ATEX 95), XS-X Ex2 precision balances and the AC adapter PSX2
are Group II, Category 3G devices that, according to Directive 99/92/EU (ATEX 137), can be used in
zone 2, as well as in Gas Groups IIA, IIB and IIC, which are potentially ignitable by combustible
substances in the range of Temperature Classes T1 to T5.
– For use/installation, the requirements of EN 60079-14 must be observed.
Special conditions X for the AC adapter PSX2
CAUTION
Damage of device
– The power supply cable of the METTLER TOLEDO Type AC adapter PSX2 must be installed with
protection against mechanical damage.
– Only the special plug-connector of the output circuit may be plugged into, or unplugged from, a
power-consuming device such as a balance while it is under voltage.
– The internal inductance (including the connecting cable) of any power-consuming device
connected to the AC adapter must not exceed ≤ 30 µH, and its internal capacity must not exceed ≤
4.9 µF.
Special condition X for the balance
CAUTION
Damage of device
– XS-X Ex2 precision balances can only be used in closed and clean interior spaces.
– The instrument must only be cleaned using a damp cloth.
