NEMA Rating
The HMI5000 Series is rated for NEMA 4/12 (indoor) or IP65
installations. This means that when the HMI is properly mounted to a
NEMA 4 panel or other NEMA 4 rated enclosure, the front enclosure of
the HMI will provide protection to the inside of the panel from splashing
water, wind-blown dust, rain, or hose-directed water. The HMI must be
installed according to the instructions in this manual to be properly
sealed.
Environmental Considerations
The HMI5000 Series is designed to operate in temperatures from 0° to
50°C (32° to 122°F). NOTE: The HMI5070ETH has an operating
temperature range of -20° to 55°C (-4° to 131°F) It is intended for
indoor installations and may not be suitable for use in certain outdoor
applications. Avoid installing the HMI5000 Series touchscreens in
environments with severe mechanical vibration or shocks. Do not install
the HMI in enclosures with rapid temperature variations or high
humidity. Either will cause condensation of water inside the device and
eventual damage to the HMI.
Safety Precautions
Please observe the following precautions when installing the HMI.
Failure to comply with these restrictions could result in loss of life,
serious personal injury, or equipment damage.
Warning: Do not operate the HMI in areas subject to explosion due to
flammable gases, vapors, or dusts.
Warning: Do not connect the HMI to an AC power source. You will
cause permanent damage to the HMI.
Warning: Do not attempt to use a DC power supply that does not meet
HMI power requirements. You may cause malfunction or permanent
damage to the HMI.
Warning: Do not power the HMI with a DC power supply used for
inductive loads or for input circuitry to the programmable logic
controller. Severe voltage spikes caused by these devices may damage
the HMI.
