Safety Barriers

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document details R. STAHL safety barriers, specifically Series 9001, 9002, and 9004, which connect intrinsically safe circuits with non-intrinsically safe circuits. These barriers are essential for limiting electrical energy in hazardous areas using Zener diodes, resistors, and fuses.
Specifications: Available in single and dual-channel versions, these barriers occupy only 12 mm of space and are designed for installation in Zone 2 and Division 2 areas. They feature a uniform exchangeable fuse, reducing inventory needs.
Functionality: Safety barriers limit power supply to prevent ignition through sparks or hot surfaces. They include Zener diodes for voltage limitation, resistors for current limitation, and fuses for protection. Some models have additional function blocks like electronic current limitations and amplifiers.
Installation and Grounding: The barriers can be mounted on a 35 mm DIN rail for grounding or grounded individually using the PA terminal. Accessories are available for various mounting options.
Selection Criteria: Selection involves functional and safety considerations, including electrical requirements, voltage polarity, and signal type. Safety criteria focus on maximum voltage, current, power, capacitance, and inductance to ensure compatibility with intrinsically safe apparatus.
Interconnection: When interconnecting barriers, consider potential current and voltage additions. The document provides guidelines for safe interconnection, referencing standards like EN 60079-11 and EN 60079-25.
Maintenance: The barriers feature an exchangeable back-up fuse, allowing easy replacement without dismounting, minimizing the need for spare parts.
Applications: Applications include use with transmitters, converters, sensors, and detection systems, compatible with HART and other protocols.
Analog Output Safety Barriers: Used for i/p converters with field circuits grounded or floating. Operating voltage ranges from +20 V to +35 V, with a current of 0 to 22 mA. Safety values include a maximum voltage Uo up to 28 V, current Io up to 121 mA, and power Po up to 770 mW.

Safety Barriers-2

2 Safety Barriers Series 9001, 9002, 9004 Advantages at a Glance: If single or dual channel, the safety barriers offer a low cost and space saving solution on 12 mm foot print. The transparent cover offers sufficient space for labeling. 04102E00 Snapping-on mounts the barrier mechanically, it simultaneously establishes the PE connection. Therefore only one common PE connection is needed per DIN rail. Time and energy-intensive wiring is dispensed with, however, manual wiring is still an installation option. Even if other rails are used, adapters guarantee that the safety barriers possess a high...

Safety Barriers-3

2 Safety Barriers Series 9001, 9002, 9004 Introduction Application Safety barriers are used as economical interfaces without galvanic isolation between intrinsically safe and non-intrinsically safe circuits. They protect circuits (i. e. cable and apparatus) in hazardous locations. Safety barriers are so-called associated apparatus: Since they also contain non-intrinsically circuits they must either be installed in the safe area or if certified in Zone 2 / Division 2. The combination with an further type of explosion protection (e.g. flame proof enclosure) enables the installation in Zone 1. Hazardous...

2 Safety Barriers Series 9001, 9002, 9004 Selection Criteria - Function and Safety Selection of safety barriers is generally carried out in two steps: • Functional consideration • Safety consideration 1. Functional consideration Safety barriers are first selected according to their electrical requirements. It is therefore necessary to know the electrical data of the connected apparatus. Further selection criteria: • Polarity of the voltage at the safety barrier UN (+, -, ~) in reference to ¿/PA • Voltage UN • Max. permissible voltage drop across the barrier, caused by the line resistance RL and...

2 Safety Barriers Series 9001, 9002, 9004 Selection Criteria - Function and Safety 2. Safety consideration The safe maximum values of an individual safety barrier (single- or dual-channel) are determined by the certification: • Maximum voltage Uo • Maximum current Io • Maximum power Po • Maximum permissible capacity Co • Maximum permissible inductance Lo It is to be tested however, if the permissible safe maximum values of the intrinsically safe apparatus (field apparatus in the hazardous area) are maintained by the selected safety barrier. 09938E02 Interconnection of Safety Barriers If several...

Safety Barriers-7

2 Safety Barriers Series 9001, 9002, 9004 Installation and Grounding R. STAHL safety barriers Series 9001, 9002 and 9004 excel due to an especially simple mounting mechanism. They snap on to a 35 mm DIN rail (NS35/15 to EN 50 022) directly without a mounting attachment. At the same time a conducting connection between ¿ / PA of the barrier and the rail, is established. Grounding several barriers is achieved by connecting the rail with the potential equalisation / grounding system (collective ground). The safety barriers can alternatively be grounded individually as well by using the ¿ / PA terminal...

Safety Barriers-8

2 Safety Barriers Series 9001, 9002, 9004 Exchangeable Back-up Fuse All safety barriers Series 9001, 9002 and 9004 have an exchangeable back-up fuse. Dual-channel safety barriers have a back-up fuse per channel. This fuse backs up the internal, non-accessible fuse. A protective circuit prevents tripping of both fuses at the same time. It is thus ensured that the safety barrier is protected against destruction resulting from reverse polarity of the operating voltage or excessively high operation voltages. Two advantages are essential for maintenance and repair: • in case of overload the safety...
