Environment and Enclosure
ATTENTION: This equipment is intended for use in a Pollution Degree 2 industrial
environment, in overvoltage Category II applications (as defined in IEC 60664-1), at
altitudes up to 2000 m (6562 ft) without derating.
This equipment is considered Group 1, Class A industrial equipment according to
IEC/CISPR 11. Without appropriate precautions, there may be difficulties with
electromagnetic compatibility in residential and other environments due to
conducted and radiated disturbances.
This equipment is supplied as open-type equipment. It must be mounted within an
enclosure that is suitably designed for those specific environmental conditions that
will be present and appropriately designed to prevent personal injury resulting
from accessibility to live parts. The enclosure must have suitable flame-retardant
properties to prevent or minimize the spread of flame, complying with a flame
spread rating of 5VA, V2, V1, V0 (or equivalent) if non-metallic. The interior of the
enclosure must be accessible only by the use of a tool. Subsequent sections of this
publication may contain additional information regarding specific enclosure type
ratings that are required to comply with certain product safety certifications.
In addition to this publication, see the following:
•
Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, publication
, for additional installation requirements
•
NEMA Standard 250 and IEC 60529, as applicable, for explanations of the
degrees of protection provided by enclosures
ATTENTION: Prevent Electrostatic Discharge
This equipment is sensitive to electrostatic discharge, which can cause internal
damage and affect normal operation. Follow these guidelines when you handle
this equipment:
•
Touch a grounded object to discharge potential static.
•
Wear an approved grounding wriststrap.
•
Do not touch connectors or pins on component boards.
•
Do not touch circuit components inside the equipment.
•
Use a static-safe workstation, if available.
•
Store the equipment in appropriate static-safe packaging when not in use.
