2 Safety guidelines
2.1 Intended use
General information • Safety guidelines
Programmable logic controllers (PLCs), operating/monitoring devices (industrial PCs, Power Panels, Mobile Panels, etc.) and uninterruptible power supplies from B&R have been designed, developed and manufactured for
conventional use in industrial environments. They were not designed, developed and manufactured for any use
involving serious risks or hazards that could lead to death, injury, serious physical impairment or loss of any kind
without the implementation of exceptionally stringent safety precautions. In particular, this includes the use of these
devices to monitor nuclear reactions in nuclear power plants, in flight control or flight safety systems as well as in
the control of mass transportation systems, medical life support systems or weapons systems.
2.2 Protection against electrostatic discharge
Electrical components that can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD) must be handled accordingly.
2.2.1 Packaging
•
Electrical components with a housing
...do not require special ESD packaging but must be handled properly (see "Electrical components with
a housing").
•
Electrical components without a housing
...are protected by ESD-suitable packaging.
2.2.2 Guidelines for proper ESD handling
Electrical components with a housing
•
Do not touch the connector contacts on connected cables.
•
Do not touch the contact tips on circuit boards.
Chapter 1
General information
Electrical components without a housing
The following points apply in addition to the points listed under "Electrical components with a housing":
•
Any persons handling electrical components or devices with installed electrical components must be
grounded.
•
Components are only permitted to be touched on their narrow sides or front plate.
•
Components must always be placed on or stored in a suitable medium (ESD packaging, conductive foam,
etc.). Metallic surfaces are not suitable storage surfaces!
•
Components must not be subjected to electrostatic discharge (e.g. caused by charged plastics).
•
Observe a minimum distance of 10 cm from monitors and television sets.
•
Measuring instruments and equipment must be grounded.
•
Probe tips of galvanically isolated measuring instruments must be temporarily discharged on suitably
grounded surfaces before taking measurements.
Individual components
•
ESD protective measures for individual components are thoroughly implemented at B&R (conductive floors,
footwear, arm bands, etc.).
•
Increased ESD protective measures for individual components are not required for handling B&R products
at customer locations.
2.3 Policies and procedures
Electronic devices are never completely failsafe. If the programmable logic controller, operating/monitoring device
or uninterruptible power supply fails, the user is responsible for ensuring that other connected devices such as
motors are brought to a safe state.
Automation PC 910 user's manual V1.5117
General information • Safety guidelines
When using programmable logic controllers or operating/monitoring devices as control systems in connection with
a Soft PLC (e.g. B&R Automation Runtime or comparable product) or Slot PLC (e.g. B&R LS251 or comparable
product), safety precautions relevant to industrial control systems (e.g. the provision of safety devices such as
emergency stop, etc.) must be observed in accordance with applicable national and international regulations. This
also applies to all other devices connected to the system, such as drives.
All tasks such as the installation, commissioning and servicing of devices are only permitted to be carried out by
qualified personnel. Qualified personnel are those familiar with the transport, mounting, installation, commissioning
and operation of devices who also have the appropriate qualifications to perform these tasks (e.g. IEC 60364).
National accident prevention regulations must be observed.
The safety notices, information about connection conditions (nameplate and documentation) and limit values specified in the technical data must be read carefully before installation and commissioning and are to be observed
in all cases.
2.4 Transport and storage
During transport and storage, devices must be protected against undue stress (mechanical loads, temperature,
moisture, corrosive atmospheres, etc.).
2.5 Installation
•
Devices are not ready for use immediately upon delivery. They must be installed and wired according to
the requirements of this documentation in order for EMC limit values to be observed.
•
Installation must be performed according to this documentation using suitable equipment and tools.
•
Devices are only permitted to be installed by qualified personnel and when the power is switched off. Before
installation, voltage to the control cabinet must be switched off and prevented from being switched on again.
•
General safety guidelines and national accident prevention regulations must be observed.
•
Electrical installation must be carried out in accordance with applicable guidelines (e.g. wire cross sections,
fuses, protective ground connections).
2.6 Operation
2.6.1 Protection against touching electrical parts
To operate programmable logic controllers, operating/monitoring devices and uninterruptible power supplies, certain components must carry dangerous voltage levels over 42 VDC. Touching one of these components can result
in a life-threatening electric shock. This could lead to death, severe injury or damage to property.
Before switching on programmable logic controllers, operating/monitoring devices or the uninterruptible power
supply, it must be ensured that the housing is properly connected to ground (PE rail). Ground connections must
also be established when the operating/monitoring device or uninterruptible power supply is connected for test
purposes or only being operated for a short period of time!
Before switching on the device, all voltage-carrying components must be securely covered. During operation, all
covers must remain closed.
The use of operating/monitoring devices (e.g. industrial PCs, Power Panels, Mobile Panels) and uninterruptible
power supplies in very dusty environments must be avoided. The collection of dust on devices can affect function-
ality and may prevent sufficient cooling, especially in systems with active cooling (fans).
The presence of corrosive gases can also result in impaired functionality. In combination with high temperature and
humidity, corrosive gases – e.g. with sulfur, nitrogen and chlorine components – can induce chemical reactions
that can damage electronic components very quickly. The presence of corrosive gases is indicated by blackened
copper surfaces and cable ends on existing installations.
When operated in dusty or moist environments that could potentially impair functionality, operating/monitoring
devices such as the Automation Panel and Power Panel are protected on the front against the ingress of dust
or moisture when installed properly (e.g. cutout installation). The back of all devices must be protected from the
ingress of dust and moisture, however; any collected dust must be removed at suitable intervals.

General information • Safety guidelines
2.6.3 Viruses and dangerous programs
This system is subject to potential risk each time data is exchanged or software is installed from a data storage
device (e.g. diskette, CD-ROM, USB flash drive, etc.), network connection or the Internet. The user is responsible
for assessing these risks, implementing preventive measures such as virus protection programs, firewalls, etc. and
making sure that software is obtained only from trusted sources.
2.7 Environmentally friendly disposal
All programmable controllers, operating/monitoring devices and uninterruptible power supplies from B&R are designed to minimize harm to the environment as far as possible.
2.7.1 Separation of materials
It is necessary to separate out the different materials so that devices can undergo an environmentally friendly
recycling process.
ComponentDisposal
Programmable logic controllers
Operating/Monitoring devices
Uninterruptible power supply
Batteries and rechargeable batteries
Cables
Disposal must take place in accordance with applicable legal regulations.
2.8 Security concept
To protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is necessary to implement (and continuously maintain) an integrated security concept that is state of the art. B&R products and solutions form only
one part of such a concept.
The user is responsible for preventing unauthorized access to his plants, systems, machines and networks. Systems, machines and components should only be connected to the corporate network or Internet if and to the extent
necessary and appropriate protective measures (e.g. use of firewalls and network segmentation) have been taken.
B&R products and solutions are constantly being developed further to make them even more secure. B&R strongly
recommends that updates be performed as soon as the corresponding updates are available and that only the
latest product versions are used. Using outdated or unsupported versions can increase the risk of cyber threats.
2.9 Third-party software updates
This product contains third-party software (e.g. drivers, etc.). B&R only assumes warranty for updates/patches to
the third-party software if they have been officially released by B&R. Otherwise, updates/patches are undertaken
at your own risk.
2.10 Administrator accounts
A user with administrator rights has extensive access and manipulation options available on the system.
Therefore, make sure that your administrator accounts are adequately secured to prevent unauthorized changes.
Use secure passwords and a standard user account for regular operation. Further measures such as the use of
security guidelines are to be applied as needed.

1 Introduction
1.1 Intel Core i-series processors for the most demanding tasks
Technical data • Introduction
The APC910 is based on the latest Intel Core i-series technology and offers maximum performance for demanding
tasks such as those that involve vision systems. The proven standard design of the Automation PCs has been
retained while adding many new details to keep up with the advancements being made on the PC market. Robust
design for use in industrial applications around the world and long-term series availability continue to define the
Automation PC series, a trend now being continued by the APC910.
Chapter 2
Technical data
1.2 Maximum performance
The APC910 has the latest Intel Core i-series technology at its heart. By further reducing the structural size of the
chip and implementing a new microprocessor architecture that now integrates graphics directly into the CPU, Intel
has been able to improve performance by leaps and bounds over their first Core i-series generation and Core 2
Duo systems. The rest of the PC infrastructure has also been streamlined for maximum computing performance
and optimal data throughput. The APC910 now has a serial ATA-based CFast card to replace the previously used
CompactFlash. And just like the APC810, hard disks and solid-state drives are connected to the PC system via
the high-speed SATA interface. These devices are also well-equipped when it comes to interface options. Two
Gigabit Ethernet ports, USB interfaces and onboard as well as modular serial interfaces round off the extensive
capabilities of the APC910.
1.3 Availability and reliability for many productive years
Automation PCs are built for continuous operation over a period of many years. This starts with the robust welded
housing that shields the electronics from the external environment, easily withstanding rough conditions. The industrial-grade coating can endure even the most aggressive environments so that even a well-seasoned Automa-
tion PC might be mistaken for new. Components have also been selected to provide many years of reliable service.
These components have been designed specifically for use in industrial environments, can withstand high ambient
temperatures and enjoy guaranteed long-term availability. In addition, Automation PC generations are produced
in excess of 10 years – quite the exception in the otherwise fast-paced PC sector and a significant advantage for

the user. The third generation of Automation PCs, represented by the APC910, proves once again that innovation
and product continuity are not incompatible goals. From the ease of connecting cables to the interfaces on top
of the device to the location of mounting holes, many details have stayed the same. For the many thousands of
panels in the field – whether customized or in the standard design – there is always the proven SDL interface for
easily connecting the PC to its display.
