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 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 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.
Besides this publication, see:
• Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, publication
additional installation requirements.
• NEMA Standards publication 250 and IEC publication 60529, as applicable,
for explanations of the degrees of protection provided by different types of
enclosure.
