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 IEC publication 60664-1), at altitudes up to 2000 m (6562 ft) without derating.

This equipment is considered Group 1, Class A industrial equipment according to IEC/CISPR Publication 11. Without appropriate precautions, there may be potential difficulties ensuring electromagnetic compatibility in other environments due to conducted as well as radiated disturbance.

This equipment is supplied as open-type equipment. 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 5VA, V2, V1, V0 (or equivalent) if non-metallic. The interior of the enclosure must be accessible only by the use of a tool. Subsequent sections of this publication may contain additional information regarding specific enclosure type ratings that are required to comply with certain product safety certifications.

In addition to this publication, see:

• Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, Rockwell Automation publication 1770-4.1

• NEMA Standard 250 and IEC 60529, as applicable, for explanations of the degrees of protection provided by different types of enclosure.

, for additional installation requirements.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge

ATTENTION: This equipment is sensitive to electrostatic discharge, which can

cause internal damage and affect normal operation. Follow these guidelines when you handle this equipment:

• Touch a grounded object to discharge potential static.

• Wear an approved grounding wriststrap.

• Do not touch connectors or pins on component boards.

• Do not touch circuit components inside the equipment.

• Use a static-safe workstation, if available.

• Store the equipment in appropriate static-safe packaging when not in use.

Each product is supplied with markings on the rating nam eplate indicating the hazardous location temperature code. When comb ining products within a system, the most adverse temp erature code (lowest "T" number) may be used to help determ ine 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.

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 r emoved or the area is known to be nonhazardous. Secure any external connection s 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.

• If this product contains batt eries, they must only be changed in an area known to be nonhazardous.

Informations sur l’utilisation de cet équipement en environnements dangereux:

Les produits marqués "CL I, DIV 2, GP A, B, C, D" ne conviennent qu'à une utilisation en en vironnements de Classe I Division 2 Groupes A, B, C, D dangereux et no n dangereux. Chaque produit est livré avec des marquages sur sa plaque d'identification qui indiquent le code de température pour les environnements dangereu x. Lorsque plusieurs produits sont combinés dans un système, le code de température le plus défavora ble (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.

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.

• S'assurer que l'environnement est classé non dangereux avant de changer les piles.

POINT I/O™ 5V and 24V Encoder/Counter Modules 7

Install the Mounting Base

To install the mounting base on the DIN rail, proceed as follows:

ATTENTION: This product is grounded through the DIN rail to chassis ground. Use zinc-plated, yellow-chromate steel DIN rail to assure proper grounding. The use of other DIN rail materials, for example, aluminum or plastic, that can corrode, oxidize, or are poor conductors, can result in improper or intermittent grounding.

Secure DIN rail to mounting surface approximately every 200 mm (7.8 in.) and use end-anchors appropriately.

1. Position the mounting base vertically above the installed units (adapter, power supply or existing module).

2. Slide the mounting base down allowing the interlocking side pieces to engage the adjacent module or adapter.

3. Press firmly to seat the mounting base on the DIN rail. The mounting base will snap into place.

ATTENTION: Do not discard the end cap supplied with an adapter or communication interface module.

Use this end cap to cover the exposed interconnections on the last mounting base on the DIN rail. Failure to do so could result in equipment damage or injury from electric shock.

Install the Module

WARNING: When you insert or remove the module while backplane power is

on, an electrical arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous location installations.

Be sure that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous before proceeding. Repeated electrical arcing causes excessive wear to contacts on both the module and its mating connector. Worn contacts may create electrical resistance that can affect module operation.

The module can be installed before or after base installation. Make sure that the mounting base is correctly keyed before installing the module into the mounting base. In addition, make sure the mounting base locking screw is positioned horizontal referenced to the base.

1. Using a bladed screwdriver, rotate the keyswitch on the mounting base clockwise until the number required for the type of module being installed aligns with the notch in the base.

2. Make certain the DIN rail locking screw is in the horizontal position. You cannot insert the module if the locking mechanism is unlocked.

3. Insert the module straight down into the mounting base and press to secure. The module locks into place.
