Operating Instructions for T5009, T5009-6 and XT5009 Interlock Switches

Explosion-Proof Classification
The explosion-proof models of safety interlock switches are specifically designed for potentially explosive atmospheres while retaining the features and operating
characteristics of the conventional models.
A sealed flameproof contact block makes the explosion-proof interlock switches suitable for use in European Zone 1 and Zone 2 environments, which are typical of
those found in the chemical and petrochemical industries. All switches are classified by the European method as EEx d II C T6. For a full explanation of the classifica-
tion method, see “Hazardous Location Rating Systems for Interlock Switches” in The Safety Library Section of this catalog.
These switches are not suitable for use in atmospheres containing Group I gases, e.g., methane (firedamp).

WARNING: These switches DO NOT

meet all conditions of the US classification of T5009, T5009-6 Switch with Plastic Head
Class I, Div 1, due to the differences between 3.78 (96.0)
European and US classification methods. In the 3.46 (88.0)
US and Canada, these products can be used in 1.83 (46.5) .59 (15.0)
areas classified as Class I, Division 2 in Groups A
(acetylene), B (hydrogen), C (ethylene) and D
(propane).
Installation must be in accordance with the

following steps and stated specifications and
should be carried out by suitably competent
personnel. The unit is not to be used as a
mechanical stop.
Guard stops and guides must be fitted. .20 (5.0)
