Danger to life if the general safety instructions and remaining risks are not carefully
observed
If the general safety instructions and remaining risks are not observed, accidents can occur
involving severe injuries or death.
• Observe the general safety instructions.
• When assessing the risk, take into account residual risks.
Protection against the spread of fire
The device may be operated only in closed housings or in control cabinets with protective
covers that are closed, and when all of the protective devices are used. The installation of
the device in a metal control cabinet or the protection with another equivalent measure must
prevent the spread of fire and emissions outside the control cabinet.
Protection against condensation or electrically conductive contamination
Protect the device, e.g. by installing it in a control cabinet with degree of protection IP54
according to IEC 60529 or NEMA 12. Further measures may be necessary for particularly
critical operating conditions.
If condensation or conductive pollution can be excluded at the installation site, a lower
degree of control cabinet protection is permitted.
3.3.1 Requirements on the installation location
The built-in units are designed for installation in closed, electrical operating areas in
compliance with EN 61800-5-1. A closed electrical operating area is a room or area
containing electrical equipment that can be accessed by trained personnel only. Access is
controlled by a door or other form of barrier that can be opened only by means of a key or
other tool. The room or area is also clearly marked with appropriate warning notices.
The operating areas must be dry and free of dust. The air supplied must not contain any
electrically conductive gas, vapors, or dust, which could impair operation. It may be
necessary to filter the air supplied to the room where the equipment is installed.
The permissible values for climatic ambient conditions must be taken into account.
At temperatures > 40 °C (104 °F) or altitudes > 2000 m, derating is required.
Built-in units with frame sizes FX and GX comply with degree of protection IP20; with frame
sizes HX and JX, they comply with degree of protection IP00 to EN 60529.
