3.3 Installing a PRO device
3.3.1 Notes on mounting
The device must be mounted securely.
Inadequately dimensioned fasteners may cause the device to fall down. Serious physical
injury may result.
Make sure that fasteners are adequately dimensioned during installation. Make sure to
consider the weight of the device and the forces acting on the device when dimensioning.
This applies in particular to dynamic load of the device. All fasteners including mounting
surfaces, support arm systems, and fastening elements such as screws must be able to carry
at least four times the weight of the device.
Observe any further statutory specifications applying at the location of use of the device and
further applicable regulations with regard to fastening the device.
Pay attention to the torque specifications in the following sections.
Degree of protection for overall device
If you are using a support arm system or a pedestal system that does not have IP65 degree
of protection or Enclosure Type 4X/12 (indoor use only), IP65 degree of protection or
Enclosure Type 4X/12 (indoor use only) are lost for the entire device. Spray and water jets as
well as penetrating substances can then damage the device.
Use a suitable support arm system or pedestal system with IP65 degree of protection or
Enclosure Type 4X/12 (indoor use only) for your application.
The device is mounted to a pedestal or a support arm via the mechanical interface with
screws. Siemens assumes no liability for the consequences of incorrect installation.
If you do not install the HMI device in accordance with the specifications in these operating
instructions, the warranty for the device is voided.
Always install the device according to these operating instructions.
If the seal on the backplane cover is damaged, it can be repaired. For a repair scenario,
following the instructions in the section "Spare parts and repairs (Page 166)".
IP65 degree of protection and Enclosure Type 4X/12 (indoor use only) at risk
If there are no seals on the mechanical interfaces or if they are damaged, IP65 degree of
protection and Enclosure Type 4X/12 (indoor use only) is at risk. Check the condition and
proper seating of the seals.
