for RSPE types
Ambient rating and temperature code for RSPE types:
T4: 0 °C ≤ Ta ≤ +60 °C for “S” types or
T4: − 40 °C ≤ Ta ≤ +70 °C for “T” or “E” types

The modules shall be installed in a suitable enclosure in accordance
with IEC 60079-15 providing a degree of protection of at least IP54
according to IEC 60529, taking into account the environmental
conditions under which the equipment will be used.

When the temperature under rated conditions exceeds 158 °F (70 °C)
at the cable or conduit entry point, or 176 °F (80 °C) at the branching
point of the conductors, the temperature specification of the selected
cable and cable entries shall be in compliance with the actual
measured temperature values.

Provisions shall be made to prevent the rated voltage from being
exceeded by transient disturbances of more than 119 V.

