Ambient and environmental conditions
Ambient conditions and chemical resistance
Unsuitable environmental conditions can cause faults or damage the device.
Failure to comply nullifies the warranty in accordance with IEC/EN/UL 61010-2-201.
• Operate the device only in closed rooms.
• Only operate the device in the ambient conditions specified in the technical
specifications.
• Observe the permitted mounting positions of the device.
• Do not obstruct the venting slots of the device.
• Please note that when the device is operated in severe environments which are subject
to caustic vapors or gases, the provision of clean air is ensured.
• Clean the enclosure surface with a damp cloth and make sure that no water enters the
device.
When you plan your project, you should make allowances for:
● The climatic and mechanical environmental conditions specified in the operating
instructions.
● Do not operate the device in severe operating conditions which are subject to caustic
vapors or gases.
● For installation in a cabinet, observe the SIMATIC setup guidelines as well as the relevant
DIN/VDE requirements or the applicable country-specific regulations.
● When the device is used in the programmable controller area in accordance with
IEC/EN/UL61010-2-201, note that the device is classified as "Open Equipment". The
installation of the device in a housing in accordance with UL 61010-2-201 is therefore a
requirement for approval or operation.
● Always maintain a minimum clearance of 100 mm to the area of the ventilation slots and
do not cover the ventilation slots of the enclosure.
