FLEX I/O DC Input, Output, and Input/Output Analog Modules 3

Environment and Enclosure

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 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 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.

See NEMA Standards publication 250 and IEC publication 60529, as applicable, for explanations of the degrees of protection provided by different types of enclosure. Also, see the appropriate sections in this publication, as well as Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, Allen-Bradley publication 1770-IN041 this equipment.

Prevent Electrostatic Discharge

, for additional installation requirements pertaining to

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.

4 FLEX I/O DC Input, Output, and Input/Output Analog Modules

WARNING: If 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.

WARNING: If you connect or disconnect wiring while the field side 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.

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 (such as aluminum or plastic) that can corrode, oxidize, or are poor conductors, can result in improper or intermittent grounding.

ATTENTION: To comply with the CE Low Voltage Directive (LVD), all connections to this equipment must be powered from a source compliant with the following:

Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) or Protected Extra Low Voltage (PELV).

North American Hazardous Location Approval

The following information applies when operating this equipment in hazardous locations:

Products marked CL I, DIV 2, GP A, B, C, D are suitable for use in Class I Division 2 Groups A, B, C, D, hazardous locations and nonhazardous locati ons only. Each product is supplied with markings on the rating n ameplate indicating the hazardous location temperat ure code. When combining products within a system, the most adverse temperature code (lowest “T ” number) may be used to help determine the overall temperature code of the system. Combinations of equipment in your system are subject to investigation by the local Authority Havin g Jurisdiction at the time of installation.

WARNING: 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 removed or the area is known to be nonhazardous. Secure any external connections 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 batteries, 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 environnements de Classe I Division 2 Groupes A, B, C, D dangereux et non dange reux. Chaque produit est livré avec des marquages sur sa plaque d’identification qu i indiquent le code de température pou r les environnements dangereux. Lorsque plusieurs produits sont co mbinés dans un système, le code de température le plus défavorable (code de température le plus faible) peut être uti lisé pour déterminer le code de température global du système. Les combinaisons d’équipements dans le système sont sujettes à inspect ion par les autorités locales qualifiées au moment de l’installation.

WARNING: 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 inadapt é à une utilisation en environnement de Classe I, Division 2.

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

Install Your Analog Input/Output Module

Description Description

1 Keyswitch 5 Groove

2 Terminal base 6 Alignment bar

3 FLEXBus connector 7 Latching mechanism

4 Module

These modules mount on a 1794-TB3G or 1794-TB3GS terminal base.

1. Rotate the keyswitch (1) on the terminal base (2) clockwise to position 3 (1794-IE12), 4 (1794-OE12), or 5 (1794-IE8XOE4) as required.

2. Make certain the FLEXBus connector (3) is pushed all the way to the left to connect with the neighboring terminal base/adapter. You cannot install the

module unless the connector is fully extended.

3. Make sure the pins on the bottom of the module are straight so they will align

properly with the connector in the terminal base.

4. Position th e module (4) with its alignment bar (5) aligned with the groove (6) on the terminal base.

5. Press firmly and evenly to seat the module in the terminal base unit. The module is seated when the latching mechanism (7) is locked into the module.

ATTENTION: During mounting of all devices, be sure that all debris (such as metal chips, and wire strands) is kept from falling into the module. Debris that falls into the module could cause damage on power up.
