Environmental Considerations

Mount the RAC6182 Computer in a panel or enclosure to protect the internal
circuitry. Versions with a gasketed bezel meet NEMA Type 1, 12, 13 and 4X
(Indoor use) and IEC 1P54, 1P65 only when properly mounted in a panel or
enclosure having an equivalent rating. The non-display version does not have a
gasket and has a NEMA Type 1 and IEC 1P2X rating.

Allow enough room within the enclosure for adequate ventilation. Also consider
heat produced by other devices in the enclosure. The ambient temperature around
the RAC6182 Computer must be maintained between 0

o

and 50

o

C (32

o

to 122

o

F). The RAC6182 Computer is intended for use in Pollution Degree 2
environments.

Make sure you provide provisions for accessing the top, bottom, and side panels
of the RAC6182 Computer to install/remove components and to access the
connectors.
