Operating Conditions - Siemens SIMATIC KP400 Comfort Operating Instructions Manual

8.4.3.2

Operating conditions

Mechanical and climatic conditions of use
The HMI device is designed for use in a location protected from the effects of the weather.
The conditions of use meet the requirements for DIN IEC 60721-3-3:
● Class 3M3 (mechanical requirements)
● Class 3K3 (climatic requirements)
Use with additional measures
The HMI device should not be used at the following locations unless additional measures are
taken:
● In locations with a high degree of ionizing radiation
● In locations with severe operating conditions, for example, due to:
● In plants that require special monitoring - for example:
Mechanical ambient conditions
The mechanical ambient conditions for the HMI device are specified in the following table in
terms of sinusoidal vibration.
Frequency range f

Reducing vibrations
If the HMI device is subjected to greater shocks or vibrations, you must take appropriate
measures to reduce acceleration or amplitudes.
We recommend mounting the HMI device on damping materials (on rubber-metal vibration
dampers, for example).
