WARNING
POTENTIAL ELECTROSTATIC CHARGING HAZARD
The integrally mounted antenna shroud is made of Teflon® and has a surface
resistance greater than 1Gohm per square. When the XYR 6000 transmitter
is installed in potentially hazardous locations care should be taken not to
electrostatically charge the surface of the antenna shroud by rubbing the
surface with a cloth, or cleaning the surface with a solvent. If electrostatically
charged, discharge of the antenna shroud to a person or a tool could possibly
ignite a surrounding hazardous atmosphere.
