"Intrinsically safe" means that the device has been designed and tested for operation in specific hazardous areas. The devices are designed to be non-incendiary for that environment while operating and also in all expected failure modes.

An example would be a hand-held instrument for measuring methane concentration in, say, a mine. You would need a device that couldn't ignite the atmosphere of the mine when a flammable mixture was present even if it malfunctioned while in use.

what the different between Intrinsically Safe Zener Barriers and conventional measurement system ??
 
?? What is the difference between an apple and a coat-hanger? Your question doesn't make any sense.

You need to make a little effort here. It appears you haven't bothered to look at the link provided above by Scotty.
