Environmental Considerations

Mount the 6181 Computer in a panel or enclosure to protect the internal
circuitry. Versions with a gasketed bezel meet NEMA Type 1, 12, 13 and 4
(Indoor use) and IEC IP54, IP65 only when mounted in a panel or
enclosure having an equivalent rating. The non-display version does not
have a gasket and has a NEMA Type 1 and IEC IP2X rating.

Allow enough room within the enclosure for adequate ventilation. Also
consider heat produced by other devices in the enclosure. The ambient
temperature around the 6181 Computer must be maintained between 5°
and 50 °C (41° to 122 °F). The 6181 Computer is intended for use in
Pollution Degree 2 environments.

Make sure you provide provisions for accessing the back and side panels
of the 6181 Computer to install/remove components and to access the
floppy disk drive.

ATTENTION: The 6181 Industrial Computer is designed
for vertical panel-mount installation. Do not mount the
6181 Computer with DVD-ROM or CD-R/W option with
an angle more than 5 degrees from vertical. This may
cause operational problems with the DVD-ROM or CD-
R/W drive, and may result in damage to your media.
