Keep Temperature and Approval Documentation Separate when Specifying Hirschmann BRS40-00089999-TTCX99HHSESXX.X.XX Eight-Port EEC-HL BOBCAT Ethernet Switch
Hirschmann BRS40-00089999-TTCX99HHSESXX.X.XX identifies Type BRS40-8TX-EEC-HL, part number 942170042, in the Hirschmann BOBCAT range. This eight-port Gigabit-capable copper switch combines the EEC temperature selection with the HL ordering option. The manufacturer record specifies -40 to +70 °C operation and lists ISA12.12.01 under hazardous locations. These details should remain distinct in the purchase specification: the temperature range does not itself establish whether the delivered device is acceptable for a particular classified installation.

Ask for documents appropriate to the actual site
Obtain the applicable certificate, equipment marking and installation conditions for the exact supplied configuration. Engineering should compare them with the location and enclosure requirements. Do not interpret the HL suffix as a blanket permission for any zone, gas group or installation method, and do not extend the listed standard into an unverified ATEX claim.

Retain the eight-port hardware boundaries
The network interfaces are eight 10/100/1000BASE-TX RJ45 connections, not an eight-copper-plus-fiber layout. Include the upstream connection in the port schedule and check the cable specification for the intended link speeds. The source lists a PC-ABS IP30 housing, two 12–24 V DC inputs and 8 W consumption; those properties must be assessed within the complete cabinet design.
Build a traceable maintenance specification
Photograph the existing device label and retain the approved configuration before preparing a replacement request. Keep the EEC-HL reference, documentation requirements and environmental conditions together in the parts record. A switch with the same number of ports may differ in temperature or approval options, so any alternative should be identified and reviewed before the order is accepted.
Configuration-specific quotation
Provide HKXY with the complete EEC-HL code, quantity, destination and certificate documents required for review. State mounting or environmental constraints and confirm the exact delivered version and accessory scope in the quotation.
