The multipoint connector can be provided with
coded pins to avoid interchanging of the different instruments in the carrier. Coded pins are
attached to each module. Equip the multipoint
connector with these coded pins acc. to the
table and figure on this page. The multiple
plug of VEGA-instruments has appropriate
holes (mechanical coding).
Module for Ex-instruments:
The multipoint connector must be provided
with three coded pins. The coded pin for the
Ex coding (position c23) avoids that not-Exinstruments are plugged into an Ex-module.

Connection instructions for
Ex-applications
Mounting in carriers and housings
When a VEGA-instrument with Ex-approval is
mounted in a carrier or a single housing, a
module Ex-33 of VEGA must be used. Keep a
distance of at least 2 TE (10,16 mm) to module
cards of foreign manufacturers. The modules
or instruments must be generally installed
outside the hazardous area or further Exprotective measures must be taken.
Loop the lines of the intrinsically safe circuit
through the separating chamber and connect
to the appropriate position of the multipoint
connector.
Ex-separating chamber
An Ex-separating chamber (with modules for
the installation of VEGATRENN 547 VEx and
548 VEx) the wide separating chamber must
be used) must be mounted to the connections
of the Ex-module to guarantee sufficient air
and creeping distances. Proceed as follows:
Separating chamber
wide separating
chamber
When using a multipoint connector with screw
connection, the upper marked section on the
separating chamber of module Ex-33 E must
be broken off first.
Shift the separating chamber up to the
multipoint connector and fasten with the integral nut to the protruding fixing screw of the
multipoint connector.
