Operating Manual
Warning! For Class 1 Division 1 applications the rated ambient temperature range
of the equipment is from -20oC to 55oC/50oC dependent on the cells used
(see Table 1).
Warning! Any connection to the iCAM501U USB port must NOT be made in a
hazardous area.
Warning! If any damage to the iCAM501U is found which may invalidate the
required safety minimum IP rating (IP54 for group I applications), (IP20
for group II and class 1 division 1 applications), the iCAM501U shall be
removed from the hazardous area.
Important Any repairs or replacement of parts MUST be performed by the
manufacturer or its nominated sub contractor or agent.
Important The iCAM501U contains no user serviceable parts. The main part of the

Operating Manual
3 Structure and Function
3.1 Intended Purpose Usage
Important Before setting the unit to work, read the technical documentation
carefully.
Important The latest version of the technical documentation or the corresponding
technical supplements is valid in each case.
The iCAM501U is built using modern components and is extremely reliable in
operation; however it must only be used for its intended purpose. Please note that
the intended purpose also includes compliance with the instructions issued by the
manufacturer for installation, setting up and service.
Any other use is regarded as conflicting with the intended purpose. The manufacturer
is not liable for any subsequent damage resulting from such inadmissible use. The
user bears the sole risk in such cases.
3.2 Transportation and Storage
All iCAM501U devices must be so transported and stored that they are not subjected
to any excessive mechanical stresses.
3.3 Authorized Persons
Only persons trained for the purpose are authorized to handle the iCAM501U; they
must be familiar with the unit and must be aware of the regulation and provisions
required for explosion protection as well as the relevant accident prevention
regulations.
3.4 Cleaning and Maintenance
The iCAM501U and all its components require no maintenance. All work on the
iCAM501U by personnel who are not expressly qualified for such activities will cause
the Ex approval and the guarantee to become void.
3.5 Safety Precautions
Important For the installation, maintenance and cleaning of the units, it is
absolutely necessary to observe the applicable regulations and
provisions concerned with explosion protection (EN 60079-0, EN 60079-
14) as well as the Accident Prevention Regulations.
3.6 Cleaning and Maintenance Intervals
The cleaning intervals depend on the environment where the system is installed.

Operating Manual
3.7 Aggressive substances and environments
The iCAM501U is not designed to come into contact with aggressive substances or
environments, please be aware that additional protection may be required.
3.8 Exposure to external stresses
The iCAM501U is not designed to be subjected to excessive stresses e.g. vibration,
heat, impact. Additional protection is required to protect against these external
stresses. The iCAM501U will require additional protection if it is used in a location
where it may be subjected to damage.
The iCAM501U may be fitted with the optional antistatic rubber boot accessory
supplied by Extronics. However, this does not guarantee any additional impact
resistance, and due care must still be taken to avoid damage to the unit, and to
inspect it before taking into a hazardous area.
