Thank you for purchasing automation equipment from Automationdirect.com®, doing business as 

AutomationDirect.  We want your new automation equipment to operate safely.  Anyone who installs or uses 

this equipment should read this publication (and any other relevant publications) before installing or operating

At a minimum, you should follow all applicable sections of the National Fire Code, National Electrical Code, 

and the codes of the National Electrical Manufacturer’s Association (NEMA).  There may be local regulatory or 

government offices that can also help determine which codes and standards are necessary for safe installation 

and operation.

standards.  We do not guarantee the products described in this publication are suitable for your particular 

application, nor do we assume any responsibility for your product design, installation, or operation.

control equipment in hazardous environments requiring fail-safe performance, such as in the operation of 

nuclear facilities, aircraft navigation or communication systems, air traffic control, direct life support machines, 

or weapons systems, in which the failure of the product could lead directly to death, personal injury, or severe 

physical or environmental damage (“High Risk Activities”).  AutomationDirect specifically disclaims any 

expressed or implied warranty of fitness for High Risk Activities.
