Environment and Enclosure
ATTENTION: This equipment is intended for use in a Pollution 
Degree 2 industrial environment, in overvoltage Category II 
applications (as defined in IEC publication 60664-1), at altitudes up 
to 2000 m (6562 ft) without derating.
This equipment is considered Group 1, Class A industrial equipment 
according to IEC/CISPR Publication 11. Without appropriate 
precautions, there may be difficulties with electromagnetic 
compatibility in residential and other environments due to conducted 
and radiated disturbances.
This equipment is supplied as open-type equipment. It must be 
mounted within an enclosure that is suitably designed for those 
specific environmental conditions that will be present and 
appropriately designed to prevent personal injury resulting from 
accessibility to live parts. The enclosure must have suitable 
flame-retardant properties to prevent or minimize the spread of flame, 
complying with a flame spread rating of 5VA, V2, V1, V0 (or 
equivalent) if non-metallic. The interior of the enclosure must be 
accessible only by the use of a tool. Subsequent sections of this 
publication may contain additional information regarding specific 
enclosure type ratings that are required to comply with certain 
product safety certifications.
In addition to this publication, see:
• Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, Rockwell
Automation publication
for additional installation
requirements.
• NEMA Standard 250 and IEC 60529, as applicable, for explanations
of the degrees of protection provided by different types of enclosure.
ATTENTION: This equipment is not resistant to sunlight or other 
sources of UV radiation.
