Important user information
Solid state equipment has operational characteristics differing from those of electromechanical
equipment. Because of this difference, and also because of the wide variety of uses for solid state
equipment, all persons responsible for applying this equipment must satisfy themselves that each
intended application of this equipment is acceptable.
In no event will ABB be responsible or liable for indirect or consequential damages resulting from the use
or application of this equipment.
The examples and diagrams in this manual are included solely for illustrative purposes. Because of the
many variants and requirements associated with any particular installation, ABB cannot assume
responsibility or liability for actual use based on the examples and diagrams.
No patent liability is assumed by ABB with respect to use of information, circuits, equipment, or software
described in this manual.
Throughout this manual we use notes to make you aware of safety considerations.

Environment and Enclosure Information
ATTENTION
Environment and Enclosure
This equipment is intended for use in a Pollution Degree 2 industrial
environment, in overvoltage Category II applications (as defined in IEC
publication 60664-1), at altitudes up to 2000 meters without derating.
This equipment is considered Group 1, Class A industrial equipment according
to IEC/CISPR Publication 11. Without appropriate precautions, there may be
potential difficulties ensuring electromagnetic compatibility in other
environments due to conducted as well as radiated disturbance.
This equipment is supplied as "open type" equipment. It must be mounted
within an enclosure that is suitably designed for those specific environmental
conditions that will be present and appropriately designed to prevent personal
injury resulting from accessibility to live parts. The interior of the enclosure must
be accessible only by the use of a tool. Subsequent sections of this publication
may contain additional information regarding specific enclosure type ratings
that are required to comply with certain product safety certifications.
See NEMA Standards publication 250 and IEC publication 60529, as
applicable, for explanations of the degrees of protection provided by different
types of enclosure. Also, see the appropriate sections in this publication, as
