Overview
This document explains how to connect to the NI 9222.
Note Before you begin, complete the soware and hardware installation
procedures in your chassis documentation.
Note The guidelines in this document are specific to the NI 9222. The
other components in the system might not meet the same safety ratings.
Refer to the documentation for each component in the system to
determine the safety and EMC ratings for the entire system.

Safety Voltages
Connect only voltages that are within the following limits:
Isolation
Channel-to-channel
Continuous 60 VDC, Measurement Category I
Withstand 1000 Vrms, verified by a 5 s dielectric withstand
test
Channel-to-earth ground
Continuous 60 VDC, Measurement Category I
Withstand 1000 Vrms, verified by a 5 s dielectric withstand
test
Measurement Category I is for measurements performed on circuits not directly
connected to the electrical distribution system referred to as MAINS voltage. MAINS
is a hazardous live electrical supply system that powers equipment. This category is
for measurements of voltages from specially protected secondary circuits. Such
voltage measurements include signal levels, special equipment, limited-energy
parts of equipment, circuits powered by regulated low-voltage sources, and
electronics.
Caution Do not connect the NI 9222 to signals or use for measurements
within Measurement Categories II, III, or IV.
Note Measurement Categories CAT I and CAT O are equivalent. These test
and measurement circuits are not intended for direct connection to the
MAINS building installations of Measurement Categories CAT II, CAT III, or
CAT IV.
Safety Guidelines for Hazardous Locations
The NI 9222 is suitable for use in Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, D, T4 hazardous
locations; Class I, Zone 2, AEx nA IIC T4 and Ex nA IIC T4 hazardous locations; and
nonhazardous locations only. Follow these guidelines if you are installing the

NI-9222

NI 9222 in a potentially explosive environment. Not following these guidelines may
result in serious injury or death.
Caution Do not disconnect I/O-side wires or connectors unless power
has been switched o or the area is known to be nonhazardous.
Caution Do not remove modules unless power has been switched o or
the area is known to be nonhazardous.
Caution Substitution of components may impair suitability for Class I,
Division 2.
Caution For Division 2 and Zone 2 applications, install the system in an
enclosure rated to at least IP54 as defined by IEC/EN 60079-15.
Special Conditions for Hazardous Locations Use in Europe and
Internationally
The NI 9222 with screw terminal has been evaluated as Ex nA IIC T4 Gc equipment
under DEMKO Certificate No. 07 ATEX 0626664X and is IECEx UL 14.0089X certified.
The NI 9222 with BNC has been evaluated as Ex nA IIC T4 Gc equipment under
DEMKO Certificate No. 12 ATEX 1202658X and is IECEx UL 14.0089X certified. Each
NI 9222 is marked II 3G and is suitable for use in Zone 2 hazardous locations, in
ambient temperatures of -40 °C ≤ Ta ≤ 70 °C. If you are using the NI 9222 in Gas
Group IIC hazardous locations, you must use the device in an NI chassis that has
been evaluated as Ex nC IIC T4, Ex IIC T4, Ex nA IIC T4, or Ex nL IIC T4 equipment.
Caution You must make sure that transient disturbances do not exceed
140% of the rated voltage.
Caution The system shall only be used in an area of not more than
Pollution Degree 2, as defined in IEC 60664-1.

NI-9222

Caution The system shall be mounted in an ATEX/IECEx-certified
enclosure with a minimum ingress protection rating of at least IP54 as
defined in IEC/EN 60079-15.
Caution The enclosure must have a door or cover accessible only by the
use of a tool.
Electromagnetic Compatibility Guidelines
This product was tested and complies with the regulatory requirements and limits
for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) stated in the product specifications. These
requirements and limits provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
when the product is operated in the intended operational electromagnetic
environment.
This product is intended for use in industrial locations. However, harmful
interference may occur in some installations, when the product is connected to a
peripheral device or test object, or if the product is used in residential or
commercial areas. To minimize interference with radio and television reception and
prevent unacceptable performance degradation, install and use this product in strict
accordance with the instructions in the product documentation.
Furthermore, any changes or modifications to the product not expressly approved
by National Instruments could void your authority to operate it under your local
regulatory rules.
Cable Requirements for EMC Compliance
Select and install cables for the NI 9222 with screw terminal in accordance with the
following requirements:
■Connect the cable shield to the chassis ground (grounding screw of the
chassis) using the shortest length of wire possible.
■Use shielded, twisted-pair cables (Belden 9451 or equivalent).

Special Conditions for Marine Applications
Some products are Lloyd’s Register (LR) Type Approved for marine (shipboard)
applications. To verify Lloyd’s Register certification for a product, visit ni.com/
certification and search for the LR certificate, or look for the Lloyd’s Register mark
on the product.
Caution In order to meet the EMC requirements for marine applications,
install the product in a shielded enclosure with shielded and/or filtered
power and input/output ports. In addition, take precautions when
designing, selecting, and installing measurement probes and cables to
ensure that the desired EMC performance is attained.
