General Considerations

The Compact I/O system is suitable for use in an industrial environment
when installed in accordance with these instructions. Specifically, this
equipment is intended for use in clean, dry environments (Pollution Degree
2

(1)

) and to circuits not exceeding Over Voltage Category II

(2)

(IEC

60664-1).

(3)

Hazardous Location Considerations

This equipment is suitable for use in Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, D or
nonhazardous locations only. The following WARNING statement applies to
use in hazardous locations.

(1)

Pollution Degree 2 is an environment where, normally, only nonconductive pollution occurs except that
occasionally a temporary conductivity caused by condensation shall be expected.

(2)

Over Voltage Category II is the load level section of the electrical distribution system. At this level, transient
voltages are controlled and do not exceed the impulse voltage capability of the product’s insulation.

(3)

Pollution Degree 2 and Over Voltage Category II are International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC)
designations.
