charged battery, particularly when placing it inside 

a pocket, purse, or other container with metal 

objects.

The Intrinsically safe approval unit refers to a 

product that has been approved as intrinsically 

safe by an approval agency (for example FM 

Approvals, CSA, UL, CENELEC or ATEX) and 

certifies that a particular product meets the 

Agency's applicable intrinsic safety standards for 

specific types of hazardous classified locations. A 

portable radio that has been approved for intrinsic 

safety will have Approval label attached to the radio 

to identify the unit as being Approved for specified 

hazardous atmospheres. This label specifies the 

hazardous Class/Division/Group along with the 

part number of the battery that must be used. The 

Intrinsically Safe Approval Label will be located on 

the portable radio unit.

Do not operate radio communications equipment 
in a hazardous atmosphere unless it is a type 
especially qualified (for example, FM, UL, CSA, or 
CENELEC or ATEX approved). An explosion or 
fire may result. 

•

Do not operate a radio unit that has been 
approved as intrinsically safe product in a hazard-

ous atmosphere if it has been physically damaged 
(for example, cracked housing). An explosion or 
fire may result.

Do not replace or charge batteries in a hazardous 
atmosphere. Contact sparking may occur while 
installing or removing batteries and cause an 
explosion or fire.

Radios must ship from the Motorola 

manufacturing facility with the 

hazardous atmosphere capability 

and the intrinsic safety approval labelling (FM, UL, 

CSA, CENELEC or ATEX). Radios will not be 

upgraded to this capability and labeled once they 

have been shipped to the field. A modification 

changes the unit’s hardware from it’s  original 

design made by the original product.
