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 publication
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 Publication 11. Without appropriate precautions, there may be potential
difficulties ensuring electromagnetic compatibility in other environments due to
conducted as well as radiated disturbance.
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 publications:
• Publication
, Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding
Guidelines, for additional installation requirements
• NEMA 250 and IEC 60529, as applicable, for explanations of the degrees of
protection provided by different types of enclosures
