5. CERTIFICATIONS AND COMPLIANCES:

SAFETY

IEC 1010-1, EN 61010-1: Safety requirements for electrical equipment for
measurement, control, and laboratory use, Part 1.

ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY

Emissions and Immunity to EN 61326: Electrical Equipment for Measurement,
Control and Laboratory use.

Notes:
1. Criterion A: Normal operation within specified limits.
2. Criterion B: Temporary loss of performance from which the unit self-

recovers.

3. This device was designed for installation in an enclosure. To avoid

electrostatic discharge to the unit in environments with static levels above
4 kV precautions should be taken when the device is mounted outside an
enclosure. When working in an enclosure (ex. making adjustments, setting
switches etc.) typical anti-static precautions should be observed before
touching the unit.

6. ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS:

Operating Temperature Range: 0 to 50°C
Storage Temperature Range: -30 to +70°C
Operating and Storage Humidity: 80% max relative humidity,

non-condensing, from 0 to 50°C

Altitude: Up to 2000 meters

7. CONSTRUCTION: Case body is black high impact plastic and stainless

steel. Installation Category I, Pollution Degree 2.

8. POWER CONNECTION: Removable wire clamp screw terminal block.

Wire Gage Capacity: 24 AWG to 12 AWG
Torque: 4.45 to 5.34 in/lb (0.5 to 0.6 N-m)

9. MOUNTING: Snaps onto standard DIN style top hat (T) profile mounting

rails according to EN50022 -35 x 7.5 and -35 x 15.

10. WEIGHT: 12.3 oz (348g)

POWER SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS

It is very important that the power supply is mounted correctly if the unit is

to operate reliably. Please take care to observe the following points:

– The power supply must be mounted close to the unit, with usually not more

than 6 feet (1.8 m) of cable between the supply and the ICM8. Ideally, the
shortest length possible should be used.

– The wire used to connect the ICM8’s power supply should be at least

22-gage wire. If a longer cable run is used, a heavier gage wire should be
used. The routing of the cable should be kept away from large contactors,
inverters, and other devices which may generate significant electrical
noise.

– A power supply with a Class 2 or SELV rating is to be used. A Class 2 or

SELV power supply provides isolation to accessible circuits from
hazardous voltage levels generated by a mains power supply due to single
faults. SELV is an acronym for “safety extra-low voltage.” Safety extra-
low voltage circuits shall exhibit voltages safe to touch both under normal
operating conditions and after a single fault, such as a breakdown of a layer
of basic insulation or after the failure of a single component has occurred.
