General information for replacements

IMPORTANT !

The following instructions must be followed carefully, if the IFC 090 / CAP/…-EEx
signal converter housing has to be opened respectively closed again!


Before opening

• Make absolutely sure there is no explosion hazard!
• If necessary provide a ”Gas-free certificate” !
• Make sure that all connecting cables are safely isolated from the power supply !

When the instructions above are strictly followed, the cover (with glass window) of the electronics
compartment may be removed. First unscrew the recessed head screw of the interlocking device by a
hollow-head screw wrench size 3, until the cover can rotate freely. Unscrew the cover with the special
plastic wrench (black) that is supplied with the apparatus.

After opening

• The copper ground strip at the back of the electronics unit must be securely screwed to the housing

(back-end of electronics compartment) by screw SE (see figure below). The electronics unit is
screwed into the electronics compartment by two screws D. Before screws SE and D can be
accessed, the display unit must be removed via screws A.

• Before the cover is screwed back into the housing, the screw-thread must be clean and well-greased

with an acid and resin-free grease, e.g. silicone grease.

• Screw the cover as tight as possible into the housing by hand, until it cannot be opened by hand

anymore. Screw the recessed head screw of the interlocking device tight.
