Schedule
 
EQUIPMENT:
Equipment and systems covered by this certificate are as follows:
 
 
Description
 
FB Remote I/O Backplane is a carrier for different FB-modules. It provides several plug-in positions, power supply and communication connections for these separately tested and certified FB-modules.
 
For the use in hazardous areas the backplane has to be mounted in a separately tested and certified enclosure. This mounting is not a subject of this test report.
In case of a mounting inside an enclosure in type of protection Increased safety the backplane has to fulfil specific requirements. These requirements are subject of this test report.
 
The backplane is designed in type of protection Increased safety “e” with the following exceptions: The plug-in connectors MC jack type GHG 100 1303 R 001 between the backplane and the FB-modules are designed in type of protection Flameproof enclosure “d”. These connectors are separately tested and certified (IECEx TUN 09.0014 U).
The printed circuit board (only type FB926*BP*****.*) and the associated selector are designed in type of protection Encapsulation “m”.
 
 
CONDITIONS OF CERTIFICATION: YES as shown below:
 
 
The backplane has to be mounted inside an enclosure in type of protection Increased safety which is separately tested and certified. The temperature inside this enclosure shall not exceed the permissible ambient temperature of the backplane. After the mounting of the backplane all clearances and creepage distances inside the enclosure have to fulfil the requirements of the type of protection Increased safety.
 
The backplane shall only be used in a dry environment.
