Installation environment
Installation location
Do not install the I/O module to the place where:
• Ambient temperature is outside the range of 0 to 55;
• Ambient humidity is outside the range of 5 to 95%RH;
• Condensation occurs due to rapid temperature change;
• Corrosive gas or combustible gas is present;
• Conductive powder such as dust and iron powder, oil mist, salinity, or organic solvent is filled;
• The I/O module is exposed to direct sunlight;
• A strong electric field or strong magnetic field is generated; and
• The I/O module is subject to vibration and shock.
Installation surface
Install the I/O module on the flat surface. When the installation surface is uneven, excessive force is applied to the printed-
circuit board and may cause a defect.
Installation position
When installing the I/O module in a control panel, provide clearance of 60mm or longer (1) between the module and the sides
of control panel or neighboring modules to ensure good ventilation and an easy module change.
