Informations sur l’utilisation de cet 

équipement en environnements dangereux:

Products marked ‘CL I, DIV 2, GP A, B, C, D’ are 

suitable for use in Class I Division 2 Groups A, B, 

C, D, Hazardous Locations and nonhazardous 

locations only. Each product is supplied with 

markings on the rating nameplate indicating the 

hazardous location temperature code. When 

combining products within a system, the most 

adverse temperature code (lowest ‘T’ number) 

may be used to help determine the overall 

temperature code of the system. Combinations of 

equipment in your system are subject to 

investigation by the local Authority Having 

Jurisdiction at the time of installation.

Les produits marqués ‘CL I, DIV 2, GP A, B, C, D’ ne

marquages sur sa plaque d'identification qui 

indiquent le code de température pour les 

environnements dangereux. Lorsque plusieurs 

produits sont combinés dans un système, le code de 

température le plus défavorable (code de 

température le plus faible) peut être utilisé pour 

déterminer le code de température global du 

système. Les combinaisons d'équipements dans le 

système sont sujettes à inspection par les autorités 

locales qualifiées au moment de l'installation.
