The product family AC500 control system is designed according to the EN
61131-2 and IEC 61131-2 standards. Any data that differs from IEC 61131-2,
is due to the higher requirements of Maritime Services. Other differences are
described in the technical data description of the devices.
NOTICE!
Avoidance of electrostatic charging
PLC devices and equipment are sensitive to electrostatic discharge, which can
cause internal damage and affect normal operation. Observe the following rules
when handling the system:
–
Touch a grounded object to discharge potential static.
–
Wear an approved grounding wrist strap.
–
Do not touch connectors or pins on component boards.
–
Do not touch circuit components inside the equipment.
–
If available, use a static-safe workstation.
–
When not in use, store the equipment in appropriate static-safe packaging.
NOTICE!
Use of suitable enclosure
The devices must be mounted in a control cabinet that ensures compliance with
the specified environmental conditions.
Cleaning instructions
Do not use cleaning agent for cleaning the device.
Use a damp cloth instead.
Connection plans and a user program must be created so that no dangerous situations can
occur during normal operation or failure.
The application must be tested to ensure that no dangerous situations can occur during opera-
tion.
Do not operate devices outside of the specified, technical data!
Trouble-free functioning cannot be ensured outside of the specified data.
NOTICE!
PLC damage due to missing grounding
–
Make sure to ground the devices.
–
The grounding (switch cabinet grounding) is supplied both by the mains
connection (or 24 V supply voltage) and via the DIN rail. The DIN rail
must be connected to ground before power is supplied to the device. The
grounding may be removed only if it is certain that no more power is being
supplied to the control system.
–
In case of screw mounting, grounding must be ensured by the screws.
