BAE SA-XE-052-XR
Order Code: BAE00ZY
Intended use
The Ex-amplifier BAE SA-XE-052-XR is used for conducting electrical signals from the intrin-
sically safe control circuit to the non intrinsically safe contact circuit. The control circuit sup-
plies energy for a sensor which uses the type of protection "intrinsically safe" and which is
mounted inside gas hazardous areas or dust hazardous areas.
The Ex-amplifier BAE SA-XE-052-XR is an associated apparatus and must be mounted
outside hazardous areas (gas or dust).
The function of the contact circuit is determined by means of a programming switch.
The normal open (NO) function is defined for a sensor, which closes when actuated.

Safety instructions

• Only professionals with sufficient knowledge are allowed to install and operate the Ex-amplifier.
• Prior to installation disconnect the system from power supply.
• Comply with the provisions of the instruction manual.
• Comply with the national regulations and installation provisions (e.g. EN 60079-14).
• To the device connected sensors must comply with the given maximum values.
Installation and operation
• Make sure that the Ex-amplifier is used only in the area of application corresponding to its Ex marking.
• Install device in a lockable control cabinet which ensures degree of contamination 2 and provides adequate
mechanical protection.
• Install cables according to the applicable regulations and protect them from damage.
• Snap device from the top onto a top-hat rail (DIN EN 60715). For removal press clamping fixture on the bottom
side of the device.
• Observe connecting diagram for wiring.
• Ensure sufficient air circulation by providing a gap to either side of the device.
• Protect the common contact of the relay (terminal 12) with an external fuse: 5 A (fast reaction) according
to IEC 60127.
• The device meets the EMC requirements for industrial environments. The use in other environments may
require further EMC measures.
• Sensor cable from 30 m may require further EMC measures.
• Datasheet, EU type examination certificate and MTTF values are available on request.
Maintenance, repairs and trouble-shooting
• Do not repair, modify or manipulate the Ex-amplifier.
• In case of non-compliance any approval, warranty and manufacturer responsibility will expire.
• Contact the manufacturer for any problems.
• In case of a defect always replace the device by an original device.
