Note
When you plan your project, you should make allowances for:
• Install the device in such a way that it poses no danger, e.g. by falling over.
• Only operate the device in a suitable environment, see information under "Climatic and
mechanical environmental conditions (Page 148)".
– Avoid extreme ambient conditions such as heat.
– Do not expose the device to direct sunlight or powerful light sources.
• Observe the permitted mounting positions of the device.
• This device was designed for use in a normal industrial environment.
• When using the device in locations with difficult operating conditions due to corrosive
vapors or gases, special additional protective measures are necessary, such as the supply
of clean air.
• Ensure adequate ventilation of the device:
– Do not obstruct the venting slots of the device.
– Always maintain a minimum clearance of 50 mm to the area of the ventilation slots.
• The device meets the requirements for fire protection enclosures in accordance with
IEC/EN/UL/CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 61010-2-201. You can therefore install it without an
additional fire protection enclosure.
• The connected or built-in peripherals should not introduce a counter emf in excess of
0.5 V into the device.
High frequency radiation
Immunity to RF interference
The device has increased immunity to high-frequency radiation, see information under
"Electromagnetic compatibility (Page 147)".
High frequency radiation above the specified immunity limits can result in malfunctioning of
the device.
Persons are injured and the plant is damaged.
• Avoid high-frequency radiation.
• Remove radiation sources from the environment of the device.
• Switch off radiating devices.
• Reduce the radio output of radiating devices.
• Read the information on electromagnetic compatibility.
• Read the information in the technical specifications.
