Environmental Specifications
The following table lists the environmental specifications that generally apply to DL06 Micro
PLCs. The ranges that vary for the Handheld Programmer are noted at the bottom of this
chart. Certain output circuit types may have derating curves, depending on the ambient
temperature and the number of outputs ON. Please refer to the appropriate section in this
chapter pertaining to your particular DL06 PLC.
* Operating temperature for the Handheld Programmer and the DV–1000 is 32° to 122°F (0° to 50°C) Storage
temperature for the Handheld Programmer and the DV–1000 is –4° to 158°F (–20° to 70°C).
**Equipment will operate down to 5% relative humidity; however, static electricity problems occur much more frequently
at low humidity levels (below 30%). Make sure you take adequate precautions when you touch the equipment. Consider
using ground straps, anti-static floor coverings, etc. if you use the equipment in low-humidity environments.
Agency Approvals
Some applications require agency approvals for particular components. The DL06 Micro
PLC agency approvals are listed below:
• UL (Underwriters’ Laboratories, Inc.)
• CUL (Canadian Underwriters’ Laboratories, Inc.)
• CE (European Economic Union)
Marine Use
American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) certification requires flame-retarding insulation as per
4-8-3/5.3.6(a). ABS will accept Navy low smoke cables, cable qualified to NEC
Plenum
rated
(fire resistant level 4), or other similar flammability resistant rated cables. Use cable
specifications for your system that meet a recognized flame retardant standard (i.e., UL, IEEE,
etc.), including evidence of cable test certification (i.e., tests certificate, UL file number, etc.).
NOTE: Wiring must be low smoke per the above paragraph. Teflon coated wire is also recommended.
