Per ISA Standard 7.0.01
A maximum 40 micrometer particle size in the air
system is acceptable. Further filtration down to 5
micrometer particle size is recommended. Lubricant
content is not to exceed 1 ppm weight (w/w) or
volume (v/v) basis. Condensation in the air supply
should be minimizedPer ISO 8573-1

Electromagnetic Compatibility
Meets EN 61326-1:2021>
Immunity—Industrial locations per Table 2 of
the EN 61326-1 standard. Performance is
shown in table 1‐3 below.Emissions—Class A
ISM equipment rating: Group 1, Class ALightning and Surge Protection—The degree of
immunity to lightning is specified as Surge immunity
in table 1‐3. For additional surge protection
commercially available transient protection devices
can be used.
Vibration Testing Method
Tested per ANSI/ISA-S75.13.01 Section 5.3.5. A
resonant frequency search is performed on all three
axes. The instrument is subjected to the ISA specified
1/2 hour endurance test at each major resonance.
