Certificates and Approvals
The Intrinsic Safety Specifications of the SITRANS LC 500 have been defined and
approved as follows:
approved as follows:
The SITRANS LC 500 can be directly connected to an intrinsically safe supply for
intrinsically safe applications. For non-intrinsically safe operations, such as explosion
proof, a safety barrier must be used.
intrinsically safe applications. For non-intrinsically safe operations, such as explosion
proof, a safety barrier must be used.
The operation of the SITRANS LC 500 conforms to the following:
NAMUR recommendation NE 43
This recommendation describes rules by which analog transmitters transfer their
information to DCS equipment. This information can be divided into two types:
information to DCS equipment. This information can be divided into two types:
• measurement information
For measurement information the current signal should be within the range of
3.8 to 20.5 mA.
3.8 to 20.5 mA.
• failure signalling
For failure information which indicates a failure in the measuring system

the
current signal should be in the range of either 0 to 3.6 mA, or 21 mA or greater.
The application will determine which of these two ranges is more desirable. The
SITRANS LC 500 can be set for 3.6 mA, or 22 mA, as required
