 Make sure that the device has the following label:
for RS20/22/30/32 types.
for RS40 types.
Ambient rating and temperature code for RS20 and RS30 types:
T4: 0 °C ≤ Ta ≤ +60 °C for "S" types
(item 14 of nomenclature breakdown) or
T4: −40 °C ≤ Ta ≤ +70 °C for "T" or "E" types
(item 14 of nomenclature breakdown).
Ambient rating and temperature code for RS22 and RS32 types:
T4: −40 °C ≤ Ta ≤ +50 °C for "T" or "E" types
(item 14 of nomenclature breakdown) or
T4: 0 °C ≤ Ta ≤ +50 °C for "S" types
(item 14 of nomenclature breakdown)
Ambient rating and temperature code for RS40 types:
T3: −40 °C ≤ Ta ≤ +70 °C for "T" or "E" types
(item 14 of nomenclature breakdown).
T4: −40 °C ≤ Ta ≤ +60 °Cfor "T" or "E" types
(item 14 of nomenclature breakdown).
T4: 0 °C ≤ Ta ≤ +60 °C for "S" types
(item 14 of nomenclature breakdown).
 The modules shall be installed in a suitable enclosure in accordance
with EN 60079-15 providing a degree of protection of at least IP54
according to EN 60529, taking into account the environmental
conditions under which the equipment will be used.
 When the temperature under rated conditions exceeds 70 °C at the
cable or conduit entry point, or 80 °C at the branching point of the
conductors, the temperature specification of the selected cable and
cable entries shall be in compliance with the actual measured
temperature values.
