Largest external capacitance (Co) and inductance (Lo) numerical attention in
following conditions:
(1). For circuits containing distributed inductance and capacitance (as in a
cable), Co and Lo are largest permitted values of external capacitance and
inductance;
(2). For circuits combined with cables, when intrinsically safe circuit contains
less than 1% more permitted inductance and capacitance, Co and Lo are
largest permitted values of capacitance and inductance;
(3). For circuits combined with inductors and capacitors, when intrinsically
safe circuit contains more than 1% more permitted inductance and
capacitance (cables excluded), permitted values of capacitance and
inductance should be 50% of mentioned Co and Lo.

Summarize Operation Conditions
Specification
Isolated barriers transfer two-way RS-485 digital signal between
hazardous area and safe area, and provide isolated DC power for field
instruments. The product needs independent power supply, input, output
and power supply isolated galvanically.
(1). Any medium corrupting the cladding made up with chrome, nickel and
silver should not exist in atmosphere. Moreover, turbulence, impact or any
cause of electromagnetic induction (such as big current or spark, etc.) must
be avoided during use.
(2). Operating temperature: -20℃~+60℃
(3). Storage temperature: -40℃~+80℃
(4). Relative humidity: 10%~90%
Intrinsic safety explosion protection loop system
Special requirements have to be confirmed before using the intrinsically
safe explosion protection loop system (intrinsically safe circuit), which is
connected by isolated barrier and intrinsically safe apparatus in field:
(1). The explosion protection level of intrinsically safe apparatus should
meet requirements of operating conditions. The apparatus should pass
explosion protection test and get certificates from state-authorized
explosion protection product certification organizations;
(2). The intrinsic safety parameters of isolated barrier and intrinsically safe
apparatus are both ensured, and comply with 12.2.5 of GB 3836.15-2000;
(3). If any parameter is unclear, the system has to be confirmed by state-
authorized explosion protection product certification organizations.
