Caution for Mounting
This instrument is intended to be used under the following environmental conditions (IEC61010-1): Overvoltage category, Pollution degree 2. Ensure the mounting location corresponds to the following conditions:
- A minimum of dust, and an absence of corrosive gases
- No flammable, explosive gases
- No mechanical vibrations or shocks
- No exposure to direct sunlight, an ambient temperature of -10 to 55 131 (No icing)
- An ambient non-condensing humidity of 35 to 85%RH (Non-condensing)
- No large capacity electromagnetic switches or cables through which a large current is flowing
- No water, oil, or chemicals, or where the vapors of these substances can come into direct contact with the unit
- Take note that the ambient temperature of this unit, not the ambient temperature of the control panel, must not exceed 55 (131 ) if mounted through the face of a control panel; otherwise, the life of electronic components (especially electrolytic capacitors) may be shortened.
Caution concerning Export Trade Control Ordinance
- To avoid this instrument from being used as a component in, or as being utilized in the manufacture of weapons of mass destruction (i.e. military applications, military equipment, etc.), please investigate the end users and the final use of this instrument. In the case of resale, ensure that this instrument is not illegally exported.
Compliance with Safety Standards
