This equipment is considered Group 1, Class A industrial equipment
according to IEC/CISPR Publication 11. Without appropriate
precautions, there may be potential difficulties ensuring
electromagnetic compatibility in other environments due to
conducted as well as radiated disturbance.
This equipment is supplied as enclosed equipment. It should not
require additional system enclosure when used in locations
consistent with the enclosure type ratings stated in the
Specifications section of this publication. Subsequent sections of
this publication may contain additional information regarding
specific enclosure type ratings, beyond what this product provides,
that are required to comply with certain product safety certifications.
About the Power Supplies
The power supply is an essential component in the operation of an
intrinsically safe system. It must isolate the unsafe incoming power from the
control system and limit the available energy to IS-safe levels.
No other power sources are needed to operate any components attached to
EX Ex system in the hazardous area. Power for valves, actuators, or
the FL
transmitters come from the FLEX Ex modules.
ou
The 1797-PS1N is a 85…250V ac in/quad-Ex dc
t power supply in an
explosion-proof enclosure with 1 in. conduit pipe-thread input/output
terminations.

Features include the following:
• 85…250V ac supply source
• Four channels, 8.5 W output each channel
• Outputs are IS galvanically isolated from the source
• All channels are independently IS limited
Understand System Planning
Part of system planning is determining what modules are needed for the
application, how many power supplies are needed, how to best partition the
system, and where to locate the system cabinets.
A key task in the development cycle is determining the number of power
pply
outputs (thus power supplies) you will need. In the following example,
su
you will need eleven power outputs if you are using the fiber hub, which
requires 8.5 W as shown below.
ModulesRequiresModulesRequires
Fiber hub8.5 WTwo thermocouple inputs1.6 W each
Two ControlNet adapters8.5 W eachTwo digital outputs7.5 W each
Two analog inputs7.5 W eachThree NAMUR digital inputs2.8 W each
Two analog outputs6.3 W eachTwo counter inputs4.25 W each
Each power supply has four independent IS power outputs capable of 8.5 W
h. In the above example, we required 11 IS power outputs so 3 power
eac
supplies were sufficient.
The total number of power supplies needed depends on the modules used
and the total
system configuration. The following illustration shows how this
example may be configured.

Even though modules may be supplied with power from the same
power supply output channel, galvanic isolation in the module
provides module-to-module galvanic isolation. Depending upon the
module type, galvanic isolation (channel-to-channel within the
module) may or may not be provided. See the module’s
specifications for more information.
Make certain that you only connect intrinsically-safe power supplies to other
intrinsically-safe system modules or adapters to maintain the integrity of the
intrinsically-safe backplane.

Mount the 1797-PS1N Power Supply
The 1797-PS1N power supply provides pre-tapped 1 in. NPT (National Pipe
Thread) conduit entrance and exit holes. Depending on your local
requirements, the hazardous conduit entrance could be through hard conduit
or semi-flexible continuous conduit with poured seals from the safe area.
• Conduit seals must be installed at the entry of the enclosure
(FM) or within 150 mm (6 in.) of the enclosure (UL).
• Use star washers and nuts to make sure you have a good
electrical connection. Scrape the paint off the back panel in
those areas where grounding bolts will be located.
