WHAT IS INTRINSICALLY SAFE?
Intrinsically safe means means "Inherently Safe". Intrinsically safe equipment is defined as: "equipment as wiring which is incapable of releasing sufficient thermal or electrical energy under normal or abnormal conditions. To cause ignition of a specific hazardous atmospheric mixture in it's most easily ignited concentration". This is achieved by limiting power available to (and generated by) the electrical equipment in the hazardous area to a level below that which will not ignite the hazardous materials.

The Intrinsically Safe Barrier provides intrinsically safe outputs for connection to non-inductive resistive devices, switches, RTD's, input of PLC and thermocouples or a variety of sensors in Class 1, Group D locations.
