Mechanical and Climatic Environmental Conditions

Operating conditions
The fail-safe signal modules are designed for stationary operation in weatherproof locations.
The operating conditions exceed requirements to IEC 61131-2.
The fail-safe signal modules meet conditions of application of class 3C3 according to DIN EN
60721 3-3 (locations with high traffic volume and in the immediate area of industrial plants
with chemical emissions).
Restrictions
A fail-safe signal module must
● At locations with a high level of ionizing radiation
● At locations with severe operating conditions; for example, due to
● In systems that require special monitoring, such as:
Installation of the ET 200M/S7-300 and fail-safe signal modules in control cabinets is
considered a suitable additional measure.
