When used in hazardous locations the computer supports peripheral cards rated
4 W maximum, and Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, D, T4. In Europe, use in
ATEX Group IIC Category 3 gas and dust environments is supported. At
maximum product temperature a PCI card dissipating 4 W may experience a
surrounding air temperature up to 90 °C (194 °F). A PCI card dissipating 1 W
may experience a surrounding air temperature up to 85 °C (185 °F) .
ATTENTION:
Do not discard the slot cover. If the add-in card is removed in the
future, the slot cover must be reinstalled to maintain agency access
requirements.
