Switch Explosion-Protection Specifications (Japan only)
Simple apparatuses in accordance with relevant standards of each country can be installed in the hazardous area and connected to the
EB3C located in the safe area. In Japan, any switches, though regarded as simple apparatuses, must be certified for explosion-proof
devices. EB9Z-A and EB9Z-A1 are IDEC’s generic Part No. of any single apparatuses certified by TIIS for use with the EB3C, therefore
simple apparatuses with specifications shown below can be used as those approved by the Japanese explosion-proof certification.

Notes
• As shown in the diagram on the left, a required number of “contacts
in one switch” (3 contacts in the example at left) can be added to the
“contacts in one switch” connected to one input channel.
• Similarly, a required number of “contacts in one switch” can be added
to a common line connected to multiple input channels.
• The capacitance and inductance of the added “contacts in one
switch” must be included in the calculation of the wiring capacitance
and inductance in “Precautions for Operation, 5. Wiring for Intrinsic
Safety, (7)” on page 11.
• In addition, a required number of contacts can be added in the
enclosure of “contacts in one switch.” In this case, however, do not
include the capacitance and inductance in the calculation of the
wiring capacitance and inductance on page 11. Instead, make sure
that the internal capacitance (Ci) and internal inductance (Li) are
within the values shown in the table “Switch Explosion-Protection
Specifications (Japan only)” on page 6.

EB3C Relay Barriers
Precautions for Operation
1. Installation of EB3C Relay Barriers
(1) The EB3C can be installed in any direction.
3. Switches in the Hazardous Area
(For Japan application only)
(2) Install the EB3C relay barrier in a safe area (non-hazardous
area) in accordance with intrinsic safety ratings and param
eters. To avoid mechanical shocks, install the EB3C in an
enclosure which suppresses shocks.
(1) A switch contains the switch contact, enclosure, and
internal wiring. A switch contact refers to an ordinary
switching device which consists of contacts only, such as a
pushbutton switch. See below.
(3) When installing or wiring the EB3C, prevent
electromagnetic and electrostatic inductions in the
intrinsically safe circuit. Also prevent the intrinsically safe
circuits from contacting with another intrinsically safe circuit
and any other circuits.
Maintain at least 50 mm clearance, or provide a metallic
separating board between the intrinsically safe circuit and
non-intrinsically safety circuit. When providing a metallic
separating board, make sure that the board fits closely
to the enclosure (top, bottom, and both sides). Allowable
clearance between the enclosure and board is 1.5 mm at
the maximum.
The clearance of 50 mm between the intrinsically safe cir
cuit and non-intrinsically safe circuit may not be sufficient
when a motor circuit or high-voltage circuit is installed
nearby. In this case, provide a wider clearance between
the circuits referring to 5 (3) “Minimum Parallel Distance
between the Intrinsically Safe Circuit and Other Circuits.”
(4) In order to prevent contact between intrinsically safe
circuits and non-intrinsically safe circuits, mount EB3C
units with terminals arranged in the same direction.

Note: For installation in hazardous areas and connection to the EB3C, use
switches which are certified, approved, or considered to be simple
apparatus in relevant standards in each country.
(2) When the switch has internal wiring or lead wire, make sure
that the values of internal inductance (Li) and capacitance
(Ci) are within the certified values.
(3) Enclose the switch contact’s bare live part in an enclosure
of IP20 or higher protection.
(4) Depending on the explosion-protection specifications
according to TIIS, the exposed area of plastic switch opera
tor is limited as follows:
• Exia II CT6 (EB9Z-A): 20 cm2 maximum
• Exia II BT6 (EB9Z-A1): 100 cm2 maximum
(5) Attach the certification mark supplied with the EB3C on the
EB9Z-A or EB9Z-A1 switch (for Japan application).
(6) When the switch operator of plastic enclosure has a wider
exposed area than the following limits, attach a caution
label as shown below.
Caution

(5) Maintain at least 6 mm (or 3 mm according to IEC60079-11:
1999) clearance between the terminal of intrinsically safe
circuit and the grounded metal part of a metal enclosure,
and between the relay terminal block of an intrinsically safe
circuit and the grounded metal part of a metal enclosure.
(6) For installing the EB3C, mount on a 35-mm-wide DIN rail
or directly on a panel using screws. Make sure to install
securely to withstand vibration. When mounting on a DIN
rail, push in the clamp completely. Use the BNL6 end
clips on both sides of the EB3C to prevent from moving
sideways.
(7) Excessive extraneous noise may cause malfunction and
damage to the EB3C. When extraneous noise activates the
voltage limiting circuit (thyristor), remove the noise source
and restore the power.
Caution Label Example
(7) For the 1-circuit separate wiring, a resistor to prevent reed
switch contact welding and an LED miniature pilot lights
can be connected in series with the contact. See below.
Use the terminal screw of M3 or larger.

(1) Using a ø5.5 mm or smaller screw driver, tighten the termi
nal screws (including unused terminal screws) to a torque
of 0.6 to 1.0 N·m (recommended value).
Terminal Block
(2) Make sure that IP20 is achieved when wiring. Use
insulation tubes on bare crimping terminals.
(3) To prevent disengaged wires from contacting with other
intrinsically safe circuits, bind together the wires of one
intrinsically safe circuit.
(4) When the adjacent terminal is connected to another intrinsi
cally safe circuit, provide an insulation distance of at least 6
mm.

To prevent electrostatic
charges, do not rub the switch
surface during operation.
Use a soft cloth dipped with
water for cleaning.

EB3C Relay Barriers
Precautions for Operation
4. Output Specifications
(1) When wiring the output from the EB3C, connect the nonintrinsically safe circuit to terminals A and C. The EB3C
output circuit is not equipped with short-circuit protection.
If required, provide a protection in the external circuit.
(2) Relay Output
Some types of loads generate reverse emf (such as sole
noids) or cause a large inrush current (incandescent
lamps), resulting in a shorter operation life of output relay
contacts. The operation life of contacts can be extended by
preventing the reverse emf using a diode, RC, or varistor, or
by suppressing the inrush current using a resistor or RL.
Contacts are made of gold-clad silver. When using at a
small current and a low voltage (reference value: 0.1 mA,
0.1V), test the contact on the actual circuit in advance.
(3) Transistor Output
When connecting a small load, the load may not turn off
because of a leakage current, even though the transistor
output is turned off. If this is the case, connect a resistor in
parallel with the load to bypass the leakage current.
When an excessively high voltage (clamps at 33V, 1W) or
a reverse voltage is applied to the output terminals, the
clamping circuit or output transistor may be damaged.
When driving an inductive load, be sure to connect a diode
across the load to absorb reverse emf.

Cn
∗: Surge Absorber
Example of Overvoltage Absorption Circuit
(4) In the common wiring only models, the output terminals are
not isolated from each other.
(5) When connecting the connector model EB3C’s in parallel,
use one power supply to power the EB3C’s. Do not
connect any wiring to the C1 and C2 terminals.
5. Wiring for Intrinsic Safety
(1) The voltage applied on the general circuit connected to
the non-intrinsically safe circuit terminals of the EB3C relay
barrier must be 250V AC, 50/60Hz, or 250V DC at the maxi
mum under any conditions, including the voltage of the
input power and the internal circuit.
(2) When wiring, take into consideration the prevention of
electromagnetic and electrostatic charges on intrinsically
safe circuits. Also, prevent intrinsically safe circuits from
contacting with other circuits.
(3) The intrinsically safe circuits must be separated from nonintrinsically safe circuits. Contain intrinsically safe circuits
in a metallic tube or duct, or separate the intrinsically safe
circuits referring to the table below.
Note: Cables with a magnetic shield, such as a metallic sheath,
prevent electromagnetic induction and electrostatic induction,
however, a non-magnetic shield prevents electrostatic induction
only. For non-magnetic shields, take a preventive measure
against electromagnetic induction.

(4) When identifying intrinsically safe circuits by color, use light
blue terminal blocks and cables.
(5) When using two or more EB3C’s to set up one intrinsically
safe circuit in the common wiring configuration,
interconnect two neutral terminals (N1 through N10) on
each EB3C between adjacent EB3C’s in parallel.
(6) Make sure that the power of the EB3C and contact are
turned off before starting inspection or replacement.
(7) When wiring the intrinsically safe circuit, determine the dis
tance to satisfy the wiring parameters shown below. Note
that parameters are different between separate wiring and
common wiring.
a) Wiring capacitance Cw ≤ Co – (Ci + N × 2 nF)
Co: Maximum external capacitance of the EB3C
Ci: Internal capacitance of the switch
N: The number of switches connected in series or
parallel (the number is infinite)
b) Wiring inductance Lw ≤ Lo – (Li + N × 5 µH)
Lo: Maximum external inductance of the EB3C
Li: Internal inductance of the switch
N: The number of switches connected in series or
parallel (the number is infinite)
c) Wiring resistance ≤ Rw
Rw: Allowable wiring resistance
d) Allowable wiring distance D (km) is the smallest value of
those calculated from the capacitance, inductance, and
resistance.

Lamp Test
When checking the lamp lighting without using the EB3L
lamp barrier, first make sure that the atmosphere is free from
explosive gases. Connect a 12V DC power supply and a
protection resistor of 1 kΩ in series to turn on the pilot light.

Note: The wiring in dashed line does not affect the operation of the EB3L.
Applicable connector is IDEC’s JE1S-201.
Output power for PLC outputs is supplied by the EB3L, therefore the
PLC output does not need an external power supply.

EB3L Lamp Barriers
Precautions for Operation
1. Installation of EB3L Lamp Barriers
2. Terminal Wiring
(1) The EB3L can be installed in any direction.
(2) Install the EB3L lamp barrier in a safe area (non-hazard
ous area) in accordance with intrinsic safety ratings and
parameters. To avoid mechanical shocks, install the
EB3L in an enclosure which suppresses shocks.
(3) When installing or wiring the EB3L, prevent electromag
netic and electrostatic inductions in the intrinsically safe
circuit. Also prevent the intrinsically safe circuits from
contacting with another intrinsically safe circuit and any
other circuits.
Maintain at least 50 mm clearance, or provide a metallic
separating board between the intrinsically safe circuit
and non-intrinsically safety circuit. When providing a
metallic separating board, make sure that the board fits
closely to the enclosure (top, bottom, and both sides).
Allowable clearance between the enclosure and board
is 1.5 mm at the maximum.
The clearance of 50 mm between the intrinsically safe
circuit and non-intrinsically safe circuit may not be
sufficient when a motor circuit or high-voltage circuit is
installed nearby. In this case, provide a wider clearance
between the circuits referring to 6. (3) “Minimum Parallel
Distance between the Intrinsically Safe Circuit and
Other Circuits.”
(4) In order to prevent contact between intrinsically safe
circuits and non-intrinsically safe circuits, mount EB3L
units with terminals arranged in the same direction.
(1) Using a ø5.5 mm or smaller screw driver, tighten the
terminal screws (including unused terminal screws) to a
torque of 0.6 to 1.0 N·m (recommended value).
(2) Make sure that IP20 is achieved when wiring. Use insu
lation tubes on bare crimping terminals.
(3) To prevent disengaged wires from contacting with other
intrinsically safe circuits, bind together the wires of one
intrinsically safe circuit.
(4) When the adjacent terminal is connected to another
intrinsically safe circuit, provide an insulation distance
of at least 6 mm.

(5) Maintain at least 6 mm (or 3 mm according to
IEC60079-11: 1999) clearance between the terminal of
intrinsically safe circuit and the grounded metal part of
a metal enclosure, and between the relay terminal block
of an intrinsically safe circuit and the grounded metal
part of a metal enclosure.
(6) For installing the EB3L, mount on a 35-mm-wide DIN
rail or directly on a panel using screws. The EB3L
can be installed in any direction. Make sure to install
securely to withstand vibration. When mounting on a
DIN rail, push in the clamp completely. Use the BNL6
end clips on both sides of the EB3L to prevent from
moving sideways.
(7) Excessive extraneous noise may cause malfunction and
damage to the EB3L. When extraneous noise activates
the voltage limiting circuit (thyristor), remove the noise
source and restore the power.
22
3. Signal Input
(1) Connect the EB3L to the switches or output equipment
which have a low leakage current (0.1 mA maximum).
(2) The EB3L is equipped with power supply. Do not apply
external power to the EB3L.
(3) When connecting the EB3L’s of connector model in
parallel, make sure that the same power supply is used.
When using C1 and C2 terminals to supply power to
outside equipment, maintain the current at 50 mA maxi
mum.
4. Power Voltage
(1) Do not apply an excessive power voltage, otherwise the
EB3L may be damaged.
(2) The EB3L of AC power type may operate at a low volt
age (approx. 20V).
5. Pilot Lights, Illuminated Switches, and Buzzers
in the Hazardous Area
(1) EB3P and IPL1 units shown on page 14 can be used
with the EB3L. Buzzers cannot be connected in
common wiring.
(2) Install the EB3P and IPL1 units on enclosures of IP20 or
higher protection. Use a metallic enclosure with magne
sium content of 7.5% or less (steel and aluminum are
acceptable).
(3) When wiring, make sure of correct polarities of the
EB3P and IPL1.
(4) Certification mark is supplied with the units. Attach it on
the visible area of the EB3P or IPL1 (for Japan applica
tion).
(5) When connecting illuminated switches to the EB3L
lamp barrier and the EB3C relay barrier, a maximum of
16 channels can be connected in common wiring.
EB3L Lamp Barriers
Precautions for Operation
6. Wiring for Intrinsic Safety
(1) The voltage applied on the general circuit connected to
the non-intrinsically safe circuit terminals of the EB3L
lamp barrier must be 250V AC, 50/60Hz, or 250V DC
at the maximum under any conditions, including the
voltage of the power line and the internal circuit.
(2) When wiring, take into consideration the prevention
of electromagnetic and electrostatic charges on
intrinsically safe circuits. Also, prevent intrinsically safe
circuits from contacting with other circuits.
(3) The intrinsically safe circuits must be separated from
non-intrinsically safe circuits. Contain intrinsically
safe circuits in a metallic tube or duct, or separate the
intrinsically safe circuits referring to the table at right.
Note: Cables with a magnetic shield, such as a metallic sheath, prevent
electromagnetic induction and electrostatic induction, however, a
non-magnetic shield prevents electrostatic induction only. For nonmagnetic shields, take a preventive measure against electromagnetic
induction.
Finely twisted pair cables prevent electromagnetic
induction. Adding shields to the twisted pair cables
provides protection against electrostatic induction.

(7) When wiring the intrinsically safe circuit, determine
the distance to satisfy the wiring parameters shown
below. Note that parameters are different between
separate wiring and common wiring and depend on
the connected units, such as pilot lights, illuminated
pushbuttons, and buzzers.
a) Wiring capacitance Cw ≤ Co – Ci
Co: Maximum external capacitance of the EB3L
Ci: Internal capacitance of the connected unit
b) Wiring inductance Lw ≤ Lo – Li
Lo: Maximum external inductance of the EB3L
Li: Internal inductance of the connected unit
c) Wiring resistance ≤ Rw
Rw: Allowable wiring resistance
d) Allowable wiring distance D (km) is the smallest
value of those calculated from the capacitance,
inductance, and resistance.
D ≤ Cw/C C (nF/km): Capacitance of cable per km
D ≤ Lw/L L (mH/km): Inductance of cable per km
D ≤ Rw/2R R (Ω/km): Resistance of cable per km
Note: For the details of wiring the intrinsically safe circuits, refer
to a relevant test guideline for explosion-proof electric
equipment in each country.

(4) When identifying intrinsically safe circuits by color, use
light blue terminal blocks and cables.
(5) When using two or more EB3L’s to set up one intrinsi
cally safe circuit in the common wiring configuration,
interconnect two neutral terminals (N1 through N10) on
each EB3L between adjacent EB3L’s in parallel.
(6) Make sure that the power of the EB3L, pilot lights, and
other connected units are turned off before starting
inspection or replacement.
Safety Precautions
• Do not use the EB3C Relay Barrier and EB3L Lamp Barrier for other than explosion protection purposes.
• Read the user’s manual to make sure of correct operation before starting installation, wiring, operation, maintenance, and
inspection of the EB3C Relay Barrier and EB3L Lamp Barrier.

Instructions
Notes for Operation
1. Do not disassemble, repair, or modify the EB3N safety relay barrier,
otherwise the safety characteristics may be impaired.
2. Use the EB3N within its specification values.
3. The EB3N can be mounted in any direction.
4. Mount the EB3N on a 35-mm-wide DIN rail or directly on a panel surface
using screws. When mounting on a DIN rail, push in the clamp and
use end clips to secure the EB3N. When mounting on a panel surface,
tighten the screws firmly.
5. Excessive noise may cause malfunction or damage to the EB3N. When
the internal voltage limiting circuit (thyristor) has shut down the power
due to noise, remove the cause of the noise before powering up again.
6. The internal power circuit contains an electronic fuse to suppress overcurrents. When the electronic fuse has tripped, shut down the power,
remove the cause of the overcurrent before powering up again.
7. Use crimping terminals with insulation sheath for wiring. Tighten the terminal screws, including unused terminal screws, to a recommended tightening torque of 0.6 to N·m using a screwdriver of ø5.5 mm in diameter.
8. Before inspecting or replacing the EB3N, turn off the power.
Notes for Machine Safety
1. Operate the safety input device to check the EB3N functionality everyday.
2. For safety input devices, such as safety switches or emergency stop
switches, connected to the EB3N, use safety standard-compliant devices
with direct opening action and 2NC contacts.
3. Do not use the auxiliary input as a safety input.
4. For safety control devices connected with the EB3N, use machine safety
standard-compliant devices with a disparity detection function.
5. Use safety inputs and safety outputs in a circuit configuration compliant
with safety requirements.
6. To calculate the safety distance, take into consideration the response
time of all devices comprising the system, such as the EB3N and safety
devices connected to the EB3N.
2. Install and wire the EB3N so that the EB3N is not subject to electromagnetic and electrostatic induction and does not contact with other circuits.
For example, keep a minimum spacing of 50 mm between intrinsically
safe and non-intrinsically safe circuits, or provide a metallic separating
board between the intrinsically safe circuit and non-intrinsically safe
circuit. When providing a metallic separating board, make sure that the
board fits closely to the enclosure (top, bottom, and both sides). Allowable clearance between the board and the enclosure is 1.5 mm at the
maximum.
When a motor circuit or high-voltage circuit is installed nearby, keep a
wider spacing than 50 mm between intrinsically safe and non-intrinsically
safe circuits.
3. Keep a minimum spacing of 3 mm between the terminal or relay terminal
block of the intrinsically safe circuit and the grounded metal parts of the
metal enclosure.
4. Connect the terminals so that IP20 is ensured.
5. To prevent disengaged wires from contacting with other intrinsically safe
circuits, bind together the end of wires.
6. Make sure that the voltage of the power supply for the devices connected to the non-intrinsically safe circuit or the internal voltage of such
devices does not exceed 250V AC/DC 50/60 Hz or 250V DC under any
normal and abnormal conditions.
7. Make sure that the wiring of intrinsically safe circuits does not contact
with other circuits or is not subject to electromagnetic and electrostatic
inductions, otherwise explosion protection is not ensured.
8. When identifying intrinsically safe circuits by color, use light blue terminal
blocks and cables.
9. When wiring the intrinsically safe circuit, determine the distance to satisfy
the wiring parameters shown below.
a) Wiring capacitance Cw ≤ Co – Ci
Co: Intrinsically safe circuit allowable capacitance
Ci: Internal capacitance of switches
b) Wiring inductance Lw ≤ Lo – Li
Lo: Intrinsically safe circuit allowable inductance
Li: Internal inductance of switches
c) Wiring resistance ≤ Rw
Rw: Allowable wiring resistance
7. Separate the input and output wiring from power lines and motor lines.
Switches in the Hazardous Area
8. When using multiple EB3N safety relay barriers, do not connect one
switch to more than one EB3N. Use separate switches for each EB3N.
1. A switch contains the switch contact, enclosure, and internal wiring. A
switch contact refers to an ordinary switching device which consists of
contacts only.
9. To ensure EMC, use shielded cables for safety inputs and auxiliary
inputs. Connect the shield to the FG of the control panel on which the
EB3N is mounted.
10. For protection against overcurrents, connect an IEC60127-2-compliant
2A fast-blow fuse (5 × 20 mm).
11. Evaluate the ISO 13849-1 category and performance level in consideration of the entire system.
Notes for Explosion Protection Safety
1. Install the EB3N in an enclosure capable of protecting against mechanical shocks at a hazardous location in accordance with intrinsic safety
ratings and parameters.
26
2. When the switch has internal wiring or lead wire, make sure that the
values of internal capacitance (Ci) and inductance (Li) are within the
certified values.
3. Enclose the bare live part of the switch contact in an enclosure of IP20
or higher protection.
4. Depending on the explosion-protection specifications of TIIS, the exposed area of plastic switch operator, when installed in Japan, is limited
as follows:
