2.1Overview
The VisuNet IXD RM-IXD2100-19U* and PC-IXD-2100- 19U* are ATEX/IECEx certified
devices intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres, such as Zones 1/21.
The VisuNet IXD serves as a thin client- or PC-based operator workstation that uses standard
Ethernet technology to transmit process information from a process control or manufacturing
execution system into hazardous areas.
The assembly consists of several core devices that can be replaced by customers:
•The display unit DPU2100-* is a display panel with optional 10-finger multi-touch sensors.
The display and touch sensors are optically bonded with the hardened front glass.
•The thin client unit TCU1100-* is a computing unit that runs the latest Pepperl+Fuchs RM
Shell 5x or RM Shell 4x firmware. TCUs allow connectivity to various host systems in the
safe area using standard Ethernet technology. For more information on RM Shell, visit
www.pepperl-fuchs.com/RM-SHELL.
•The computing unit PCU1100-* runs an open Microsoft® Windows® operating system,
allowing installation of any software, such as SCADA packages.
•The power supply unit PSU1100-* provides the above-listed devices with 24 V DC power.
It is available in DC and AC versions.

3.1Conditions of Safe Use
•The display does not pose an electrostatic discharge hazard under normal use condi-
tions. Use only water damp cloth and allow to air dry for cleaning device. Do not use or
install in high charge areas. See IEC 60079-32-1 for further information.
•In hazardous dust environment, regularly remove dust from the display unit to prevent
excessive temperature rise. See certificate for full information.
•The device shall be installed such that risk of high impact energy on display glass is con-
sidered to be low.
•The intrinsically safe circuits are connected to earth. Along the intrinsically safe circuits
potential equalization must exist.
3.2General Installation Information
Observe the following requirements when installing the system components.
•The equipment must be installed by competent personnel in accordance with the instruc-
tions. National laws and regulations must be observed.
•The building installation must provide a 20 A overcurrent protection.
•The installer must make a readily accessible disconnect device available.
•The safety of any system incorporating the power supply unit is the responsibility of the
assembler of the system.
Warning!
Risk of injury
Lifting the device on your own may lead to injury.
Warning!
Strength of installation location and hardware
The installation location and hardware used to permanently secure the completed system to a
floor, wall, or ceiling shall be capable of supporting 4 times the total weight of the completed
system. It is the installer's responsibility to properly select the hardware and fasteners that are
appropriate for the installation location.
Note
Installation steps vary depending on the options and accessories selected. The below
instructions cover the following installation scenarios:
•Yoke mount with pedestal (including assembly of the optional sunshield and keyboard tray
accessories)

and optional sunshield.
3.3Installation Environment
Caution!
Exposure to direct sunlight and wind
Exposure to direct sunlight may heat the device beyond the maximum permitted operating temperature. Wind may cool down the device and thus impact the minimum operating temperature.
Protect the device from direct sunlight. Consider the impact of wind exposure on the specified
operating temperature range.
The VisuNet IXD product line is designed for outdoor applications. Ensure that the application
is within the specified operating temperature. Any environmental conditions that go along with
the operating temperature range and IP class 66 are suitable for the rugged workstation.
Follow the below steps to protect the device from potential failure:
•Install the device in a location that does not receive extended exposure to saltwater or
associated vapor and mist.
•To maintain the specified operating temperature, install the device in a shaded environ-
ment. Avoid direct sunlight on the IXD display, components, and housing.
•If the available shade is insufficient, the optional sunshield can provide protection. If the
sunshield is insufficient, contact Pepperl+Fuchs to find an engineered solution that provides enough mechanical protection against sunlight.

3.4Preparing the IXD
The VisuNet IXD comes pre-assembled and consists of the core components display unit,
power supply unit, and thin client unit / power supply unit.
Warning!
Risk of injury
Handling the devices with bare hands may cut fingers, hands, or wrists.
Wear gloves at all times during the installation process.
Warning!
Risk of injury
Lifting the IXD housing on your own may cause injury.
Warning!
Danger resulting from scratched display unit screen
Scratches on a display unit front screen weaken the glass structure and may result in broken
glass. Explosion protection is no longer ensured if a display unit with a scratched screen is
used.
NEVER use a display unit with a scratched front screen in a hazardous area. If the surface is
damaged in any way, return the display unit to Pepperl+Fuchs at once and replace it with a new
one.

3.5.2Preparing the Pedestal
For floor mounting with a yoke bracket, the preferred pedestal option is PEDESTAL-XX00-1243-304-TRN-N0. The pedestal is shipped with a pre-installed rotating coupling and a ground
cable, which is attached to the pedestal tube.
Note
The pedestal comes with bolts attached to the coupling. Remove and discard these bolts prior
to installation.

Preparing the Pedestal for Connection
1.
Bend the grounding cable and place it within the pedestal tube.
2.
Remove the cable glands at the bottom of the pedestal.
3.
Put the gland nut and ferrule of the cable gland on the cable and slide them down the cable
away from the pedestal. Keep the nut and ferrule on the cable to tighten them in a later
installation step.
