hazard, and recognize the consequence
SHOCK HAZARD
Labels may be on or inside the equipment (for
example, drive or motor) to alert people that
dangerous voltage may be present.
BURN HAZARD
Labels may be on or inside the equipment (for
example, drive or motor) to alert people that
surfaces may reach dangerous temperatures.
ATTENTION
Environment and Enclosure
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.
Besides this publication, see:
• Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding
Guidelines, for additional installation
requirements, Allen-Bradley publication
1770-4.1.
• NEMA Standards publication 250 and IEC
publication 60529, as applicable, for explanations
of the degrees of protection provided by different
types of enclosure.
