(industrial mains). All I/O signals are overvoltage II compliant.
Equipment Class and Insulation Voltages
Equipment Class
The S800 equipment class is Class 1 according to IEC 60536. Class 1 means
protection of electric shock by protective earth connection (PE). In this case this
means a PE- connection must be made to the DIN-rail.
Insulation Voltage
All accessible ports on S800 modules are galvanically isolated from ground and
system. For actual module isolation configuration, consult module data sheets.
