This document has been prepared as part of the service of ISAthe Instrumentation, Systems, and Automation Societytoward a goal of uniformity in the field of instrumentation. To be
5、 of real value, this document should not be static but should be subject to periodic review.

The ISA Standards and Practices Department is aware of the growing need for attention to the metric system of units in general, and the International System of Units (SI) in particular, in the preparation of inst
7、rumentation standards. The Department is further aware of the benefits to USA users of ISA standards of incorporating suitable references to the SI (and the metric system) in their business and professional dealings with other countries. Toward this end, this Department will endeavor to introduce SI
8、-acceptable metric units in all new and revised standards, recommended practices, and technical reports to the greatest extent possible.

47、2 Definitions. Associated Apparatus: Apparatus in which the circuits are not necessarily intrinsically safe themselves, but that affect the energy in the intrinsically safe circuits and are relied on to maintain intrinsic safety. Associated apparatus may be either of the following: Intrinsic safety
48、barriers are a common form of associated apparatus. These barriers are connected between the intrinsically safe apparatus and the control equipment. Their primary purpose is to limit the energy to the hazardous location under fault conditions. They may also provide isolation, signal conditioning, or
49、 both. There are also many types of associated apparatus that normally are not referred to as intrinsic safety barriers, but have energy-limiting circuits suitable for connection directly to intrinsically safe apparatus. An example of this type of associated apparatus is a controller that is not itself intrinsically safe, but has connections for intrinsically safe sensors. 504.3 Application of Other Articles.
