Frequently Asked Questions
Is the HM222H UL rated?
No. The Icom HM222H is not UL listed. It carries an IP68 ingress protection rating for waterproofing and dustproofing, but it does not hold a UL certification. If your application or facility requires UL-listed accessories, please verify compliance requirements with your safety officer before purchasing.
Is the HM222H intrinsically safe for use in hazardous locations?
No. The HM222H is not intrinsically safe (IS) and is not approved for use in hazardous locations classified under NEC Article 500 or ATEX/IECEx standards — such as environments with flammable gases, vapors, or combustible dusts. For hazardous location use, consider the Icom HM184HUL, which is designed for intrinsically safe applications. Consult your safety officer or a certified hazardous location specialist to confirm the correct accessory for your environment.
What is the difference between IP68 and intrinsic safety?
IP68 is an ingress protection rating that indicates the device is sealed against dust and can withstand submersion in water — it does not address ignition risk in explosive atmospheres. Intrinsic safety (IS) is a separate certification that ensures the device cannot produce sufficient electrical or thermal energy to ignite a flammable atmosphere under normal or fault conditions. The HM222H meets IP68 but is not IS-rated.
