1 Introduction
The Sensor IQ Easy 2.0 EX is designed for monitoring electrostatic charge. It consists of 2
parts, the Sensor IQ Easy 2.0 EX bar and a Barrier Box. The Sensor IQ Easy 2.0 EX bar itself is
constructed to be used in specific explosion hazardous areas, see chapter 3, Safety.
Note:
The Barrier Box should be placed outside the hazardous area!
Up to 8 sensor segments can be placed in a Sensor IQ Easy 2.0 EX. And up to 4 sensor
segments can be connected to 1 Barrier Box. The Sensor IQ Easy 2.0 EX will function optimally
at a distance of between 10 and 300 mm to the material and is available in lengths of 267 mm
to 6017 mm (with max. 8 sensors and max. 2 Barrier Boxes connected). Segments positions
are available in increments of 250 mm. And segments could be rotated 180 degrees in there
bay, so increments of 125 mm between the measuring elements of 2 segments could be
accomplished.
Each sensor segment can be placed at a strategic position above the material web for
measuring/monitoring the electrostatic charge. All data from each sensor segments is
communicated to the Barrier Box and then communicated to the Manager IQ Easy. In the
Manager IQ Easy data can be stored for process monitoring.
Data received from the sensor segments can also be used for quality and process control.
The log data can be retrieved from the Manager IQ Easy via the standard Ethernet port or an
attached USB flash drive.
The Sensor IQ Easy 2.0 EX gets it power from the Barrier Box and the Barrier Box is supplied
with 24 V DC supply voltage from the Manager IQ Easy through a standard 5-pin M12
connector. Also, the Barrier Box is provided with 1 LED for (status, warning and alarm).

2 Description and operation
The Sensor IQ Easy 2.0 EX consists of a bar-shaped aluminium profile. On one or two sides of
this profile there are outlets for cables. These cables run to a Barrier Box.
The configuration of max. 4 bay’s and max. 4 segments connected to 1 Barrier Box could be
placed a second time mirrored in the profile to get up to max. 8 bay’s and max. 8 segments in
one profile. Between the bay’s there are dummy’s placed that cover up the empty spaces on top
of the profile.

Configuring the Sensor IQ Easy 2.0 EX is done through the Manager IQ Easy.
All data from each sensor is communicated to the Manager IQ Easy and is stored for process
control.
The background colour of the sensor icon displays the status of the Sensor.

3 Safety
The following safety guidelines must be observed in order to prevent physical injury and
damage to objects or to the Sensor IQ Easy 2.0 EX itself.
Warning:
- The Sensor IQ Easy 2.0 EX is designed solely for measuring electrostatic charge.
- The electrical installation and repair must be carried out by an electrical engineer with the
relevant training and qualifications and in accordance with the applicable national and
local regulations.
- The Sensor IQ Easy 2.0 EX can only be supplied and connected to the Barrier Box.
- Before using the Sensor IQ Easy 2.0 EX in an explosive hazardous area, check whether
it is permitted to be used in the zone classification of the hazardous area.
- The Sensor IQ Easy 2.0 EX is suitable for ATEX II 2G.
- The Sensor IQ Easy 2.0 EX should only be used in non-mining applications.
- The Sensor IQ Easy 2.0 EX may be used in gas zones 1 and 2 and is suitable for gas
groups IIA and IIB.
- To ensure the safe operation, the working temperature should be kept below 40ºC.
- Only the Sensor IQ Easy 2.0 EX should be installed in Ex-zone environments.
- The Barrier Box should NOT be installed in Ex-zone environments.
- Do not clean or open the Sensor IQ Easy 2.0 EX bar or the Barrier Box when an
explosive atmosphere is present.
- Do not place or remove segments when an explosive atmosphere is present.
- Do not power up the Sensor IQ Easy 2.0 EX when not all the bay positions have been
fitted with a segment or a blanking cover.
- There are no serviceable parts inside the Sensor IQ Easy 2.0 EX or in the Barrier Box.
- Do not expose the Sensor IQ Easy 2.0 EX bar and Barrier Box to mechanic shocks and
vibrations.
- Fit all the connecting cables in such a way there is no chance on mechanical damage of
the cables.
Note:
Making changes, adjustments etc. without prior written consent or carrying out repairs using
non-original parts will invalidate the device’s guarantee and could invalidate approvals.
