tionality, observe the following precautions.
Do not install the Profinet IO Device Terminal in the following locations.
• Locations subject to ambient temperatures outside the range of 0 to 55°C
• Locations subject to condensation as the result of severe changes in temperature
• Locations subject to a relative humidity outside the range of 10% to 95%
• Locations subject to corrosive or flammable gases
• Locations subject to excessive dust, salt, and metal powder
• Locations subject to shock or vibration
• Locations subject to direct sunlight

following locations.
• Locations subject to static electricity or other forms of noise
• Locations subject to strong electromagnetic fields
• Locations subject to possible exposure to radioactivity
• Locations close to power lines
Consider the ambient temperature, accessibility for operation, accessibility for maintenance, noise
immunity, and installation orientation when you install the Profinet IO Device Terminal in a cabinet or
control panel.
