6.1 Storage, transport and operating conditions
CAUTION!
Improper storage, transport or operating conditions can result in destruction of the
system and danger to persons.

Storage and transport conditions
Ambient temperature: -20 °C to 70 °C,
relative humidity up to max. 90% (non-condensing)
 Operating conditions
Ambient temperature: 0 °C to 60 °C,
relative humidity up to max. 90% (non-condensing),
Height up to 2,000 m
 The ambient temperature of the control cabinet must be between 0 °C and 40 °C.
If the operating temperature is below 5 °C, disturbance of visible characters on
the LCD is expected. In case of higher ambient temperatures, the cabinet must
be force-cooled (up to 60 °C using fans, using cooling units above that). Existing
inlets and outlets for air conditioning must be kept free.
 Aggressive mediums, dust, fog, water or humidity must not reach the
assemblies. The control cabinet should hence fulfil at least protection class IP
