Schedule
EQUIPMENT:
Equipment and sysfems covered by thís certificate are as follows:
to be fìtted to a valve, damper or actuator to give a current
(a-20m4) of its position to a control system - PLC or DCS. A digital signal (HART Protocol) is superimposed on the
current signal to give feedback digitally of the position and health of the assembly as well as the ability to calibrate
the unit via a hand-held device.
There are three enclosure material
DXP - aluminium alloy
DXS - 316 stainless steel
DXR - resin (Valox)
On top of all units, the valve position is given by a visual indicator, enclosed ¡n a transparent plastic cover.

EQUIPMENT(continued):
The DX*-"H.... and DX*-*X.... versions of the Switchbox contain a 4-20 mA board (HART or non-HART respectively),
which has the following safety description:
Ui=28V
li = 100 mA
Pi =0.7W
Ci =14nF
Li = 2.06 mH
ln addition to the 4-20 mA board, the equipment may contain up to two additional devices, which are simple
mechanical switches or NAMUR sensors. The simple switches have a maximum input power (Pi) of 1.3 W from an
intrinsically safe supply. The NAMUR sensors are covered by the following certificate
.-.Y1 .-....../...
IECEx KEM 06.0036X Turck two wire proximity sensor, type .
IECEx PTB 11 0021X P+F Cuboidal lnductive proximity Sensor, type NJ2-V3-N... (input types I, 2 & 3)

Conditions of manufacture
The Manufacturer shall comply with the following:
The manufacturer shall subject 100% of completed units to the dielectric strength test in IEC 6007911:2006 clauses 6.3.12 and 10.3, by applying a voltage of 500Vrms between all inputterminals and the
outer enclosure for a minimum of 60 s. Alternatively, a voltage of 700 Vrms may be applied for 1 s. The
current flowing during the test shall not exceed 5 mA.
The manufacturer shall supply an up{o-date copy of IECEx KEM 06 0036X and/or IECEx PTB 11.0021X
with each DXx-Nx0>o<xx unit or batch of units supplied.
When the equipment incorporates a 4-20 mA Transmitter Module (lECEx SIR 12.0076U), a TO temperature
class is not permitted. The ambient temperature is limited to a maximum range of -400C to +500C, but this
range may be reduced, depending on the enclosure and gasket type, as well as the internal subassemblies fitted. Additionally, the output from the 4-20m4 Transmitter Module shall only be connected to
a Novotechnic WAL305 potentiometer
4
When the equipment incorporates an ASCO Electro-valve Module type 3021 . lA (lECEx INE 10.0002X),
the maximum ambient temperature range is -40oC to +500C. The lower ambient temperature may be
higher depending on the enclosure type, O-ring material and other modules fÌtted. The certification coding
is "Ex ia llC T4 Ga; Ex tb lllC T70oC Db" The manufacturer shall supply an up{o-date copy of
IECEx INE 10 0002X with each unit or batch of units supplied.

Additional information:
The user and installer shall comply with the following Conditions of Certification
The DXP version of the Switchbox has an enclosure that is manufac-tured from aluminium alloy. ln rare
cases, ignition sources due to impact and friction sparks could occur. This shall be considered when the
equipment is installed, especially in zone 0 locations.
The DXR version of the Switchbox has an enclosure that is manufactured from a non-conductive plastic
that may generate an ignition-capable level of electrostatic charge. Therefore the equipment shall not be
installed in a location where the external conditions are conducive to the build-up of electrostatic charge on
such surfaces. This is particularly important if the equipment is installed in a zone 0location. ln addition,
the equipment shall only be cleaned with a damp cloth.
The switchbox may contain simple switches, which shall have a maximum input power (Pi) of 1.3 W for T4
or 0.7 W for T6 from an intrinsically safe supply.
The Switchbox may contain the following IECEx-certified device:
/.... covered by IECEx KEM 06.0036X.
Turcktwowire proximitysensor, type...- .
P+F Cuboidal inductive proximity sensor, type NJ2-V3-N. , covered by IECEx PTB'1 1.0021X
P&F slot-type initiators, types SJ... & SC , covered by IECEx TUN 04 0016X.
4-20 mA Transmitter Module, covered by IECEx SIR 12.0076U
ASCO Electro-valve Module type 3021....I4, covered by IECEx INE 10.0002X
lf fitted, the installer shall confirm which certified sub-assembly is contained within the Switchbox and
ensure compliance with the entity parameters with the appropriate certiflcate.
The supplies to the 4-20 mA board, switches and/or sensors shall be installed as separate intrinsically safe
circuits.
The DXR (resin) enclosure shall only be installed in a location where there is a low risk of mechanical
damage.
For a T6 temperature class, the Turck proximity sensors listed in certificate IECEx KEM 06.0036X shall
have maximum input parameters as follows:
Type AX & GX: Ui = 15V, li = 20m4, Pi = 200mW.
All other sensors: Ui = 15V, li = =60mA, Pi = 130mW.
For a T6 temperature class, the P&F Slot-type initiators SJ... and SC... listed in certificate IECEx TUN
04.0016X shall have maximum input parameters as follows: Ui = 1ôV, li = 25m4, Pi = 64mW.
For a T4 temperature class, the switchbox may contain simple switch and resistor arrangements, which
shall have a maximum input power (Pi) of 0.7 Wfrom an intrinsically safe supply. These are not permitted
for a T6 temperature class.

The minimum ambient temperature marking depends on the enclosure/O-ring materials and the sensor used in the construct¡on
@
of the Switchbox, whichever is the highest; the following temperatures are applicable:
-20oC or -25oC or -30oC or -40"C or -50'C
The maximum ambient temperature marking depends on the enclosure/O-ring materials and the sensor used in the construction
of the Switchbox, whichever ¡s the lowest; the following temperatures are applicable:
+50'C or +55oC
Product Description
The Switchbox is designed to be fitted to a valve, damper or actuator to give a feedback of ¡ts position to a
control system, The position of the valve ¡s monitored by various combinations of internal sub-assemblies,
which are reflected in the model number and have the following entity parameters:
