ATTENTION
Consider the following before installing your GuardPLC
1200/1600/1800 controller or distributed I/O.
These products are grounded through the DIN rail. Use
zinc-plated yellow-chromate steel DIN rails to assure proper
grounding. The use of other DIN rail materials (for example,
aluminum and plastic) that can corrode, oxidize, or are poor
conductors, can result in improper or intermittent grounding.
