3-1 Installation Notes
For improved reliability and maximized functionality, take the following factors into consideration when 
installing a CP1L system. 
 Installation Location
Do not install in the following locations: 
• Locations subject to ambient temperature lower than 0°
C or higher than 
55
°C. 
• Locations subject to dramatic temperature changes, causing possible 
condensation. 
• Locations subject to relative humidity lower than 10%RH or higher than 
90%RH. 
• Locations subject to corrosive or flammable gases. 
• Locations subject to excessive dust, salt, or metal powder. 
• Locations subject to shock or vibration. 
• Locations exposed to direct sunlight. 
• Locations subject to water, oil, or chemical reagent splashes. 
Shield the system sufficiently when installing in the following locations: 
• Locations subject to static electricity and other forms of noise. 
• Locations subject to strong electromagnetic fields. 
• Locations subject to possible radioactive exposure. 
• Locations in close proximity to close to power lines. 
 Installation into Cabinets and Control Panels 
When installing CP1L into a cabinet or control panel, ensure adequate 
environment resistance, as well as sufficient accessibility for operation and 
maintenance.
zTemperature Control
The ambient operating temperature for CP1L is 0 to 55°C. The following 
precautions apply. 
• Provide adequate space for air flow. 
• Do not install above equipment, which generates significant heat (i.e. heaters, 
transformers, high-capacity resistors). 
• If the ambient temperature is to exceed 55
°C, install a cooling fan or air 
conditioner.
