FLEX I/O EtherNet/IP Adapters Installation Instructions
Environment and Enclosure
ATTENTION:
This equipment is intended for use in a Pollution Degree 2 industrial environment, in overvoltage Category II applications (as defined in EN/
IEC 60664-1), at altitudes up to 2000 m (6562 ft) without derating.
This equipment is not intended for use in residential environments and may not provide adequate protection to radio communication services in such
environments.
This equipment is supplied as open-type equipment for indoor use. It must be mounted within an enclosure that is suitably designed for those specific
environmental conditions that will be present and appropriately designed to prevent personal injury resulting from accessibility to live parts. The
enclosure must have suitable flame-retardant properties to prevent or minimize the spread of flame, complying with a flame spread rating of
5V A or be approved for the application if nonmetallic. The interior of the enclosure must be accessible only by the use of a tool. Subsequent sections of
this publication may contain more information regarding specific enclosure type ratings that are required to comply with certain product safety
certifications.
In addition to this publication, see the following:
• Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, publication
, for additional installation requirements.
• NEMA Standard 250 and EN/IEC 60529, as applicable, for explanations of the degrees of protection provided by enclosures.
ATTENTION:
Read this document and the documents listed in the Additional Resources section about installation, configuration, and operation of this
equipment before you install, configure, operate, or maintain this product. Users are required to familiarize themselves with installation and wiring
instructions in addition to requirements of all applicable codes, laws, and standards.
Installation, adjustments, putting into service, use, assembly, disassembly, and maintenance are required to be carried out by suitably trained personnel in
accordance with applicable code of practice. In case of malfunction or damage, no attempts at repair should be made. The module should be returned to
the manufacturer for repair. Do not dismantle the module.
North American Hazardous Location Approval
The Following Information Applies When Operating This Equipment In
Hazardous Locations.
Informations sur l’utilisation de cet équipement en environnements dangereux.
Products marked "CL I, DIV 2, GP A, B, C, D" are suitable for use in Class I Division 2
Groups A, B, C, D, Hazardous Locations and nonhazardous locations only. Each
product is supplied with markings on the rating nameplate indicating the
hazardous location temperature code. When combining products within a system,
the most adverse temperature code (lowest "T" number) may be used to help
determine the overall temperature code of the system. Combinations of equipment
in your system are subject to investigation by the local Authority Having
Jurisdiction at the time of installation.
Les produits marqués "CL I, DIV 2, GP A, B, C, D" ne conviennent qu'à une utilisation en
environnements de Classe I Division 2 Groupes A, B, C, D dangereux et non dangereux.
Chaque produit est livré avec des marquages sur sa plaque d'identification qui indiquent le
code de température pour les environnements dangereux. Lorsque plusieurs produits sont
combinés dans un système, le code de température le plus défavorable (code de
température le plus faible) peut être utilisé pour déterminer le code de température global
du système. Les combinaisons d'équipements dans le système sont sujettes à inspection
par les autorités locales qualifiées au moment de l'installation.
WARNING:
Explosion Hazard –
• Do not disconnect equipment unless power has been
removed or the area is known to be nonhazardous.
• Do not disconnect connections to this equipment unless
power has been removed or the area is known to be
nonhazardous. Secure any external connections that
mate to this equipment by using screws, sliding latches,
threaded connectors, or other means provided with this
product.
• Substitution of components may impair suitability for
Class I, Division 2.
AVERTISSEMENT:
Risque d’Explosion –
• Couper le courant ou s'assurer que l'environnement est classé
non dangereux avant de débrancher l'équipement.
• Couper le courant ou s'assurer que l'environnement est classé
non dangereux avant de débrancher les connecteurs. Fixer tous
les connecteurs externes reliés à cet équipement à l'aide de vis,
loquets coulissants, connecteurs filetés ou autres moyens
fournis avec ce produit.
• La substitution de composants peut rendre cet équipement
inadapté à une utilisation en environnement de Classe I, Division
2.
