ding excessive dust deposits and temperatu-
re must be considered by the user. The indi-
cated surface temperatures are not related to
a layer above 5mm thickness
Before opening, electrical power to the lumi-
naire must be turn off during at least 10mi-
nutes!
The temperature class and explosion group
stated on the luminaire shall be observed. To
ensure adherence to the temperature class
or surface temperature stated on the type la-
bel of the luminaire, the permissible ambient
temperature shall be observed.
Light fitting shall be used for their intended
purpose and shall be undamaged and in a
perfect and clean conditions.
Keep tightly closed when in operation.
The technical data indicated in point 3 as well
as those indicated in light fitting, must be ob-
served.

4. Field of application
This light fitting is intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres in zones 1, 2 and 21, 22 in
accordance with EN/IEC 60079-10. The enclosure materials used, including any external metal parts,
are high quality materials that ensure a corrosion resistance and resistance to chemical substances
according to the requirements for use in a "normal industrial atmosphere":
- Copper free aluminium alloy casting
- Plastic powder coating finish
- Stainless steel
-Borosilicate glass
In case of use in an extremely aggressive atmosphere, please consult to the manufacturer.
5. Use/Properties
This light fitting can be use inside or outside to illuminate areas with potentially explosive atmosphe-
res, may be used only in places with low mechanical impact risk, due to the normal operation in the
industrial process. The temperature class, explosion group and permissible ambient temperature can
be found in the tables and technical data.
The data according to sections 2 and 4 shall be taken into account during use. Applications other than
those described are not permissible without a written declaration of consent from
Crouse-Hinds.
During operation the instructions stated in section 7 of the operating instructions shall be observed.
