Removal and Insertion Under Power

These modules are designed to be installed or removed while chassis
power is applied.

ATTENTION: When you insert or remove a module while backplane
power is applied, an electrical arc may occur. An electrical arc can
cause personal injury or property damage by:

· sending an erroneous signal to your system’s field devices
causing unintended machine motion or loss of process control.

· causing an explosion in a hazardous environment.

Repeated electrical arcing causes excessive wear to contacts on
both the module and its mating connectors. Worn contacts may
create electrical resistance that can affect module operation.
