1 For your safety
Read this user manual carefully and keep it to hand for future reference.
1.1 Labeling of warning notes
1.2 Qualification of users
The use of products described in this user manual is oriented exclusively to:
– Qualified electricians or persons instructed by them. The users must be familiar with the
relevant safety concepts of automation technology as well as applicable standards and
other regulations.
– Qualified application programmers and software engineers. The users must be familiar
with the relevant safety concepts of automation technology as well as applicable
standards and other regulations.
This symbol indicates hazards that could lead to personal injury.
There are three signal words indicating the severity of a potential injury.
DANGER
Indicates a hazard with a high risk level. If this hazardous situation is not
avoided, it will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Indicates a hazard with a medium risk level. If this hazardous situation is not
avoided, it could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
Indicates a hazard with a low risk level. If this hazardous situation is not avoided,
it could result in minor or moderate injury.
This symbol together with the NOTE signal word alerts the reader to a situation
which may cause damage or malfunction to the device, hardware/software, or
surrounding property.
Here you will find additional information or detailed sources of information.

1.3 Safety notes
The use of antennas with a gain greater than 6 dBi may require that the transmit power be
reduced from the default setting of 30 dBm. Regulations limit the equivalent isotropically-
radiated power (EIRP) to 36 dBm. The EIRP may be calculated as the transmit power (Pt)
minus any cable loss (Lc) plus the antenna gain (Ga).
For example, in the case of a 12 dBi antenna used with a cable run with a 4 dB loss, the
transmit power must be reduced to 28 dBm or less such that the EIRP does not exceed 36
dBm.
1.4 Installation and operation
Follow the installation instructions.
Error-free operation of this device can only be ensured if transport, storage, and assembly
are carried out correctly and operation and maintenance are carried out with care.
When installing and operating the device, the applicable safety directives (including
national safety directives), accident prevention regulations, as well as general technical
regulations, must be observed.
Provide a switch/circuit breaker close to the device that is labeled as the disconnect device
for this device.
Provide overcurrent protection (I < 6A).
Please note that, in combination with antennas, the maximum permissible transmission
power may be exceeded. Please set the transmission power via the software.
EIRP = Pt - Lc + Ga
The PSI-CONF configuration and diagnostic software can be used to configure the
transmit power.
Operation of the wireless system is only permitted if accessories available from
Phoenix Contact are used. The use of other accessory components may invalidate the
device approval status
NOTE:
Installation, operation, and maintenance may only be carried out by qualified specialist
personnel.
WARNING: Risk of electrical shock
During operation, certain parts of this device may carry hazardous voltages. Disregarding
this warning may result in damage to equipment and/or serious personal injury.
NOTE:
Access to circuits within the device is not permitted.
During maintenance work, disconnect the device from all effective power sources.

For your safety
3827_en_B PHOENIX CONTACT 7/138
The radio should not be operated without an antenna or terminating load on the antenna
connector.
1.5 Safety regulations for installation in potentially ex-
plosive areas
Installation in areas with a danger of dust explosions
Installation in Class I, Div. 2 or Zone 2
NOTE:
The IP20 degree of protection (IEC 60529/EN 60529) of the RAD-900-IFS is intended for
a clean and dry environment. Do not subject the device to mechanical and/or thermal
loads that exceed the specified limits.
The RAD-900-DAIO6 provides an IP65 degree of protection.
NOTE:
Prolonged operation without an antenna or terminator may result in damage to the radio.
WARNING:
The device has not been designed for use in potentially dust-explosive atmospheres.
WARNING:
The device is designed for installation in Class I, Division 2/Zone 2 (UL/cUL) potentially
explosive areas. Observe the specified conditions for use in potentially explosive areas.
Install the RAD-900-IFS into a housing (control or distributor box) with at least IP54
protection (EN 60529) and is certified for use in Class I, Div. 2 or Zone 2.
The RAD-900-DAIO6 meets the IP65 degree of protection does not require an additional
housing.
When installing and connecting the supply and signal circuits observe the requirements of
EN 60079-14. Only devices suitable for operation in Ex zone 2 and the conditions at the
application site may be connected to the circuits in zone 2.
In potentially explosive areas, only connect and disconnect cables when the power is
disconnected.
Installation/removal of the devices on/from the TBUS DIN rail connector may only be
performed when no voltage is applied.

1.6 Conformance
FCC
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
This equipment complies with the FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with a
minimum distance of 20 cm between the radiator and your body.
– FCC certificate: SGV-SHR-900
Industry Canada (IC)
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that
may cause undesired operation of the device.
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should
be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) is not more than that
permitted for successful communication.
This device has been designed to operate with the antennas listed in this document and
having a maximum gain of 12 dB. Antennas not included in this list or having a gain greater
than 12 dB are strictly prohibited for use with this device. The required antenna impedance
is 50 .
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an
antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry
Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain
should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) is not more than
that necessary for successful communication.
– IC certificate: IC4720C-SHR900
NOTE:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital
device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a
commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in
a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case, the user will be
required to correct the interference at his own expense.
