Flexbus Entity Values for This Module
Any combination of up to eight FLEX Ex I/O modules may be attached on a
flexbus.

The entity concept allows interconnection of intrinsically safe apparatus

with associated apparatus not specifically examined in combination as a
system when the approved values of V

oc

and I

sc

or V

t

and I

t

of the associated

apparatus are less than or equal to V

max

and I

max

of the intrinsically safe

apparatus and the approved values of C

a

and L

a

of the associated apparatus

are greater than C

i

+ C

cable

and L

i

+ L

cable

respectively for the intrinsically safe

apparatus.

Simple apparatus is defined as a device which neither generates nor stores

more than 1.2V, 0.1 A, 20

μ

J, or 25 mW.

Wiring methods must be in accordance with the National Electric Code,

ANSI/NFPA 70, Article 504 and 505. For additional information refer to
ANSI/ISA RP12.6.

This module, 1797-IE8, 1797-IE8H, or 1797-IE8NF must be used with
