European Union Directive Compliance

If this product is installed within the European Union or EEA regions and the product has a CE mark, the following regulations apply.

EMC Directive

This apparatus is tested to meet Council Directive 89/336 Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC):

EN 50081-2 EMC – Generic Emission Standard, Part 2 – Industrial Environment EN 50082-2 EMC – Generic Immunity Standard, Part 2 – Industrial Environment

According to these Standards, the factor which determines, for EMC purposes, whether an apparatus is deemed to be “Industrial” or “Residential, commercial and light industrial“, is given in Clause 1 of EN50081-2 as follows:

Apparatus covered by this standard is not intended for connection to a public mains network but is intended to be connected to a power network supplied from a high- or medium-voltage transformer dedicated for the supply of an installation feeding a manufacturing or similar plant.

The product described in this manual is intended for use solely in an industrial environment as defined above. When installed in Europe, any other application is in contravention of European Union Directives, and a breach of those laws.

Low Voltage Directive

This apparatus is also designed to meet Council Directive 73/23 Low Voltage, by applying the safety requirements of EN 61131–2 Programmable Controllers, Part 2 – Equipment Requirements and Tests.

For specific information that the above norm requires, see the appropriate sections in this manual, as well as the following Allen-Bradley publications:

Handling the Memory Module

The memory module is shipped in a static-shielded bag to guard against electrostatic damage.

ATTENTION: Under some conditions, electrostatic discharge can degrade performance or damage the memory module. Observe the following precautions to guard against electrostatic damage:

Touch a grounded object to rid yourself of static charge before handling the module.

When not in use, keep the module in its static-shielded bag.
