Intrinsically Safe Barrier / ION7650

Any recommended models for an Intrinsically Safe Barrier (Zener Barrier) for an ION 7650 (pulse inputs) that is being connected to a gas meter?

Re: Intrinsically Safe Barrier / ION7650

Here in Huntington Indiana, NIPSCO specified their own intrinsically safe barrier. It was a Peppler Fuchs from Newark, part #81C8243, PF Catalog # KFD2-SR2-EX2.W. Wired contacts from Nipsco meter to intrinsically safe relay in Nema-4X box 10' away from meter. See link to barrier below and reference EX 0,1,2, Div 1,2 environment.

Not an expert defining customer's classifications, but we are using this for pulse counting natural gas consumption from providers meter.

IEC 60079-10.1 Classification of areas - Explosive gas atmospheres

ZoneNature and Probability of Hazard Material
Zone 0Ignitable concentrations of flammable gases or vapors which are present continuously or for long periods of time.
Zone 1Ignitable concentrations of flammable gases or vapors which are likely to occur under normal operating conditions.
Zone 2Ignitable concentrations of flammable gases or vapors which are not likely to occur under normal operating conditions and do so only for a short period of time.

Dusts

IEC 60079-10.2 Classification of areas - Combustible dust atmospheres

ZoneNature and Probability of Hazard Material
Zone 20An area where combustible dusts or ignitable fibers and flyings are present continuously or for long periods of time.
Zone 21An area where combustible dusts or ignitable fibers and flyings are likely to occur under normal operating conditions.
Zone 22An area where combustible dusts or ignitable fibers and flyings are not likely to occur under normal operating conditions and do so only for a short period of time.

Zones compares to classes and divisions in the North American Class/Division system.

Group

Group define the type of hazardous material and (partly) the location of the surrounding atmosphere. Group is divided in three groups where group I is reserved for mining locations.

GroupType of Hazardous Material and Location of Atmosphere
Group IMines
susceptible to firedamp (flammable mixture of gases naturally occurring in a mine).
Group IIExplosive gas
atmosphere other than mines susceptible to firedamp. Group II equipment is subdivided into three subgroups.

Re: Intrinsically Safe Barrier / ION7650

Phoenix Contact makes a low cost option 24Vdc powered with opto isolation. We use it all the time.
