Description
## Applications
- Tank truck and railcar loading facilities
- Drum and barrel filling sites
- Loading of stationary tanks
## Features
- Bright red and green indicators communicate A240 ground monitor status
- Convenient user terminal blocks make installation easy
- Environmentally sealed enclosure provides long service life even in outdoor environments
- Integrates easily into process control systems
- Provides and verifies ground bond through a single connection
## Installation
Installation must be completed by a qualified hazardous location technician. A240-Series monitors are suitable for installation in ordinary and specific hazardous locations (listed in technical specifications section) as defined by NEC NFPA70 and IECEx standard 60079. Installation to be performed by a qualified professional.
## Safety Notes
- 1. Verify unit is powered on and idle by the presence of a red indicator light inside of the enclosure.
- 2. Test the unit’s operation by clamping to a known grounded piece of metal. Verify the A240’s indicator changes from RED to GREEN. Remove the clamp from the test point.
- 3. Before any other electrical connections are made, secure clamp to the process connection that is to be loaded.
- 4. Verify the A240 indicator changes from RED to GREEN.
- 5. Complete any other process connections.
- 6. Once all other safety measures are active, begin the loading process.
- 7. Once loading is complete, remove all other process connections, then the A240 last.
- 8. Return the A240 clamp to the isolated storage facility, verifying the indicator remains red.
