A corrosive environment exists when corrosion damage becomes apparent.
Derating table for altitudes above 2000m
The derating table (table 8) from the IEC61131-2:2017 standard can be referred to for the use of the
TwinSAFE components above the specified maximum altitude.
Altitude in m Derating factor for the temperature

3000 0.9
4000 0.8
5000 0.7
Note: Linear interpolation is permissible between the altitudes
1)
Ambient temperature of the device at an altitude of 2000m
2)
The air pressure and air density increase as the altitude decreases. Therefore the derating factor for 0 to
2000 m (1.0) is used for altitudes below sea level.
Calculation example
In the following example the calculation is performed for a TwinSAFE component at an operating altitude of
4000m.
Permissible ambient temperature up to 2000 m above sea level = 55°C
Permissible ambient temperature up to 4000m above sea level = 55°C * 0.8 = 44°C
CAUTION
Compliance with the temperature limits
The TwinSAFE component has a maximum internal temperature at which a switch-off takes place. This is
designed for the maximum permissible ambient temperature. If the derating factor for the temperature for
higher altitudes is used, the user is solely responsible for ensuring that the calculated maximum ambient
temperature is complied with.
