Important Information
Power Connection
The device is intended for service in grounded electricity supply systems
(TN systems to VDE 0100, part 300, or IEC 364–3).
Service in non-grounded or impedance-grounded supply systems (IT systems) is
not intended.
The power cord should meet the respective local safety requirements.
Check whether the device’s set supply voltage is the same as the local supply
voltage.
This device is equipped with a safety-tested power supply cable. You may connect
this device only to a grounding outlet with a grounding contact.
Make certain that the socket outlet on the device or the grounding contact for the
building wiring system is freely accessible and as near to the device as possible.
The mains switch does not separate the device from the power system. To
establish a complete power separation, you must disconnect the power plug (inlet
connector on the back of the device). This location must be accessible. A central
isolating switch must be present for cabinet mounting.
Install the cables so that no one can step on them or trip over them. When you
connect the device, adhere to the relevant instructions in chapter 2 of this manual.
Do not connect or disconnect power supply cables and data transmission lines
during thunderstorms.
In emergency situations (for example, damaged housing, damaged operator
elements, a damaged power supply cable, ingress of liquids or foreign particles),
switch off the device. Disconnect the power plug and inform the responsible
service personnel.
The SIMATIC Box PC 620 must be switched off when you connect or disconnect
I/O devices (keyboard, mouse, printer, etc.). You can damage the PC if you do not
adhere to these instructions.

2.2Installing the SIMATIC Box PC 620
The SIMATIC Box PC 620 can be operated in all the usual fitting positions. It is
particularly suitable for fitting in consoles, switch boards and control panels.
The SIMATIC Box PC 620 with AC power supply meets the requirements for a
fire enclosure to EN60950. it can therefore be fitted without an additional fire
enclosure.
The SIMATIC Box PC 620 with DC power supply is an open device (right device
side); therefore the mounting must meet the requirements of a fire enclosure.
Please note the following points when installing the PC:
• Avoid extreme ambient conditions as far as possible. Protect your PC from
dust, moisture, and heat.
• Keep the PC out of direct sunlight.
• Mount the PC as safely as possible to prevent any danger (for example, by
falling over).
• The clearance around the housing must be at least 100 mm at the front and
rear, so that the PC is sufficiently ventilated.
• Make certain that the ventilation slots for the housing are not covered.
• Observe the permissible fitting positions without fail when installing the
systems.
Warning
!
If the systems are installed in a non-permissible fitting position, the approvals
pursuant to UL 1950, UL 508 and EN60950 are no longer valid!

2.3Preparing for Operation
Connection to the Power Supply Unit
Note
The SIMATIC Box PC 620 is equipped with a safety-tested mains cable and may
only be connected to a grounded grounding outlet.
Make sure that the socket on the device or the grounding outlet of the building
installation is easily accessible and as near as possible to the device.
The SIMATIC Box PC 620 has no mains switch. The mains plug must be pulled
out for complete mains separation. This point must be easily accessible.
If the PC is installed in a cabinet, there must be a central mains disconnector.
The standard power supply unit of the SIMATIC Box PC 620 is designed for
115/230 V systems.
The power supply unit has automatic mains voltage changeover. It is not
necessary to adjust the voltage span.
Equipotential Measures
Low-impedance ground connections ensure that faults arising from external power
supply cables, signalling cables or cables to peripheral units are diverted.
Therefore connect the equipotential grounding connection on the system housing
to the central earth terminal of the cabinet or the unit, into which the computer is
fitted, in such a way that it has low impedance (large surface area, large contacts).
The minimum cross section should not be less than 5 mm2.
The connection is on the side of the device and is identified.by the symbol:
