Damaging the seal when opening
If the device has not been opened for a long time, the backplane cover or terminal
compartment cover may stick to the seal of the enclosure. Opening the device with
excessive force or with tools will destroy the seal. Spray and water jets as well as
penetrating substances can then damage the device.
Open the terminal compartment cover gently, without too much pressure.

(extendable, flange bottom)
Mounting with and without a base adapter
The SIMATIC PRO devices are designed for mounting with the base adapter. If you install the
device without a base adapter, you must adjust the mechanical interface between the
support arm or pedestal and the unit accordingly, including placement of an appr
opriate seal
on the mechanical interface.

• All packaging components and protective films have been removed.
• Siemens base adapter with screws, included in the product package of a PRO device for
support arm (not extendable, flange top) or for pedestal (extendable, flange bottom).
• One of the following support arms or pedestal systems:
– Support arm or pedestal with mechanical VESA interface and the corresponding
Siemens adapter set
– Support arm or pedestal with mechanical interface for the Siemens base adapter
The type of mechanical interface differs depending on the type of support arm or
pedestal.
See also section "System components for PRO devices (Page 25)".
• The following cables are fed through the pedestal or the support arm to which the device
is mounted:
– Cables for the power supply
– Equipotential bonding cable
