Planning the configuration of an ET 200SP HA distributed I/O
In accordance with the standards for electrical devices, all components of the distributed IO
system are classified as open equipment.
Note
To operate the components of the distributed I/O system, you must ensure the following:
• Only authorized, trained or approved personnel have access to the distributed IO system (e.g.
protection by enclosure, control cabinet or control room).
• The ambient conditions for the distributed I/O have been taken into account in the plant (see
section "Mechanical and climatic environmental conditions (Page 106)").
