Environment and Enclosure

MicroLogix 1400 Programmable Controllers 5

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 meters (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.

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.

8 MicroLogix 1400 Programmable Controllers

Overview

MicroLogix 1400 controllers are suitable for use in an industrial environment when installed
in accordance with these instructions. Specifically, this equipment is intended for use in clean,

dry environments (Pollution degree 2

Category II

(2)

(IEC 60664-1)

(3)

an isolating transformer.

Install your controller using these installation instructions.

) and with circuits not exceeding Over Voltage

. AC powered products must be connected to the secondary of

44513

ATTENTION

Do not remove the protective debris strip until after the controller and all other
equipment in the panel near the controller are mounted and wiring is complete.
Once wiring is complete, remove protective debris strip. Failure to remove strip
before operating can cause overheating.

ATTENTION

Electrostatic discharge can damage semiconductor devices inside the controller.
Do not touch the connector pins or other sensitive areas.

(1)

Pollution Degree 2 is an environment where, normally, only non-conductive pollution occurs except that occasionally a
temporary conductivity caused by condensation shall be expected.

(2)

Over Voltage Category II is the load level section of the electrical distribution system. At this level transient voltages are
controlled and do not exceed the impulse voltage capability of the product's insulation.

(3)

Pollution Degree 2 and Over Voltage Category II are International Electrotechnical commissions (IEC) designations.

ATTENTION

UNSUPPORTED CONNECTION

Do not connect the Comm0 port on the MicroLogix 1400 controller to another MicroLogix
family controller such as MicroLogix 1000, MicroLogix 1200, or MicroLogix 1500 using a
1761-CBL-AM00 (8-pin mini-DIN to 8-pin mini-DIN) cable or equivalent.
This type of connection will cause damage to the RS-232/485 communication port
(Channel 0) of the MicroLogix 1400 and/or the controller itself. Communication pins used
for RS-485 communications are alternately used for 24V power on the other MicroLogix
controllers.

MicroLogix 1400 Programmable Controllers 13

Mount the Controller

General Considerations

Most applications require installation in an industrial enclosure to reduce the effects of
electrical interference and environmental exposure. Locate your controller as far as possible
from power lines, load lines, and other sources of electrical noise such as hard-contact
switches, relays, and ac motor drives. For more information on proper grounding guidelines,
see the Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, publication 1770-4.1

ATTENTION

Mount the controller horizontally only. Vertical mounting is not supported due to
thermal considerations.

.

ATTENTION

WARNING

WARNING

Be careful of metal chips when drilling mounting holes for your controller or
other equipment within the enclosure or panel. Drilled fragments that fall into
the controller could cause damage. Do not drill holes above a mounted controller
if the protective debris strips have been removed.

Do not place the MicroLogix 1400 Programmable Controller in direct sunlight.
Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight could degrade the LCD display.

The local programming terminal port is intended for temporary use only and
must not be connected or disconnected unless the area is assured to be
nonhazardous.
