1. The Intrinsic Safety Entity concept allows the interconnection of two intrinsically safe devices with entity parameters not specifically examined in combination as a system when:

Uo or Voc ≤ Vmax, Io or Isc ≤ Imax, Ca or Co ≥ Ci + Ccable, La or Lo ≥ Li + Lcable, Po ≤ Pi.

2. Dust-tight conduit seal must be used when installed in Class II and Class III environments.

3. Control equipment connected to the Associated Apparatus must not use or generate more than 250 Vrms or Vdc.
