NEMA
Rating
The MT-8000 Series front bezel is NEMA 4 rated. When installed properly in a
NEMA 4 panel, the NEMA 4 rating of the panel will not be compromised. This means
that fluids will not enter the panel during wash downs.

Environment
The MT-8000 Series has been tested to conform to European CE requirements. This
means that the circuitry is designed to resist the effects of electrical noise. This does
not guarantee noise immunity in severe cases. Proper wire routing and grounding
will insure proper operation.
