Humidity 15%-90%, noncondensing
For proper ventilation and easy replacement of modules, provide the
following minimum clearance around the control unit:
— 5-slot carrier: 1 foot (0.3 meter) clearance at the top and sides and 2
feet (0.6 meter) at the front and bottom
— 2-slot carrier or Stand-alone ACS processor module: 1 foot (0.3
meter) clearance at the front, top and right side, and 2 feet (0.6
meter) at the bottom and left side
Locate in an area free of excess moisture, corrosive gases, dust, and
chemicals
U.S. and Canada: 90-264 VAC, 47-63 Hz, 3-prong outlet separate
ground, separately fused at 15 Amps
Other countries: 90-264 VAC (220 VAC fused at 10 Amps)
Grounding to comply with Underwriters Laboratories (UL) 1459:
a. An insulated grounding conductor that is not smaller in size and
equivalent in insulation material and thickness to the grounded
and ungrounded branch circuit supply conductors, except that it
is green with or without one or more yellow stripes, is to be
installed as part of the circuit that supplies the product or system
b. The grounding conductor mentioned in item A is to be connected
