15.4 Mechanical and climatic ambient conditions
Operating conditions
The S7-1500 automation system is suitable for use in weather-proof, fixed locations. The
operating conditions exceed requirements according to DIN IEC 60721-3-3:
● Class 3M3 (mechanical requirements)
● Class 3K3 (climatic requirements)
Test of mechanical ambient conditions
The table below provides important information with respect to the type and scope of the test
of ambient mechanical conditions.
Table 15- 8 Test of mechanical ambient conditions
Condition tested Test Standard Remark
Vibration Vibration test
according to
IEC 60068-2-6 (Sinus)
Type of oscillation: Frequency sweeps with a rate of change of 1
octave/minute.
5 Hz ≤ f ≤ 8.4 Hz, constant amplitude 7 mm
8.4 Hz ≤ f ≤ 150 Hz, constant acceleration 2 g
Duration of oscillation: 10 frequency sweeps per axis, along each of the
3 mutually perpendicular axes
Shock Shock, tested
according to
IEC 60068-2-27
Type of shock: Half-sine
Shock intensity: 15 g max., duration 11 ms
Direction of shock: 3 shocks each in (+/-) direction, along each of the
3 mutually perpendicular axes
Continuous shock Shock, tested
according to
IEC 60068-2-27
Type of shock: Half-sine
Shock intensity: 250 m/s
2
peak value, 6 ms duration
Direction of shock: 1000 shocks each in (+/-) direction, along each of the
3 mutually perpendicular axes
Reduction of vibrations
If your S7-1500 automation system is exposed to severe shock or vibration, take appropriate
measures to reduce the acceleration or the amplitude.
We recommend the installation of the S7-1500 automation system on damping materials
(for example, rubber-bonded-to-metal mounting).
