• The device is a built-in device.
5.1 Safety regulations for installation in potentially
explosive areas (only FL-PP-RJ45-SCC, FL-PP-
RJ45-SC, and FL-PP-RJ45/RJ45)
The following devices have ATEX approval:
• The category 3 device is designed for installation in
zone 2 potentially explosive areas. It meets the require-
ments of EN 60079-0:2012 and EN 60079-15:2010.
• Observe the specified conditions for use in potentially
explosive areas! Install the device in suitable approved
housing (with IP54 protection, minimum) that meets the
requirements of EN 60079-15. Also observe the re-
quirements of EN 60079-14.
• Only devices which are designed for operation in Ex
zone 2 and are suitable for the conditions at the instal-
lation location may be connected to the circuits in
zone 2.
• In potentially explosive areas, always disconnect the
power before snapping the device onto the DIN rail or
removing it from the DIN rail, or connecting or discon-
necting the cables or the jumper.
• For reliable operation, the RJ45 connector needs to
have a fully functioning locking clip. Repair any dam-
aged connectors immediately.
• The device must be stopped and immediately removed
from the hazardous area if it is damaged, was subjected
to an impermissible load, stored incorrectly, or if it mal-
functions.
• The DIN rail must be connected to protective ground.
• Due to self-heating during operation, the Ethernet patch
panels may be used with the current value specified in
the technical data and at operating temperatures of
−25°C... +70°C at the installation location of operating
equipment, primarily control cabinets, for temperature
class T4. When using the components in equipment of
temperature classes T3 through T1, ensure that the
highest temperature on the components does not ex-
ceed the operating temperature range.
