Enclosure and Environmental Requirements Specific To This Product
This product must be mounted within a suitable system enclosure to
prevent personal injury resulting from accessibility to live parts. The
interior of this enclosure must be accessible only by the use of a tool.
This industrial control equipment is intended to operate in a Pollution
Degree 2 environment, in overvoltage category II applications, (as
defined in IEC publication 664A) at altitudes up to 2000 meters
without derating.
Preventing Electrostatic Discharge
The 1756-CNB and 1756-CNBR modules are sensitive to electrostatic
discharge.
For additional information refer to publication 1770-4.1, Industrial
Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines.
ATTENTION
!
Electrostatic discharge can damage integrated
circuits or semiconductors if you touch
backplane connector pins. Follow these
guidelines when you handle the module:
• Touch a grounded object to discharge static
potential
• Wear an approved wrist-strap grounding
device
• Do not touch the backplane connector or
connector pins
• Do not touch circuit components inside the
module
• If available, use a static-safe work station
• When not in use, keep the module in its
static-shield bag
