Safety Guidelines

This manual contains notices you have to observe in order to ensure your personal safety, as well as to prevent damage to property. The notices referring to your personal safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert symbol, notices referring only to property damage have no safety alert symbol. These notices shown below are graded according to the degree of danger.

Danger

indicates that death or severe personal injury will result if proper precautions are not taken.

Warning

indicates that death or severe personal injury may result if proper precautions are not taken.

Caution

with a safety alert symbol, indicates that minor personal injury can result if proper precautions are not taken.

Caution

without a safety alert symbol, indicates that property damage can result if proper precautions are not taken.

Notice

indicates that an unintended result or situation can occur if the corresponding information is not taken into account.

If more than one degree of danger is present, the warning notice representing the highest degree of danger will be used. A notice warning of injury to persons with a safety alert symbol may also include a warning relating to property damage.

body, do not short-circuit or reverse polarity, do not heat up above 100° C, dispose as regulated and protected against direct exposure to sunlight, humidity and dewing.

ESD guidelines

Modules containing electrostatically sensitive devices (ESDs) can be identified by the following label:

Strictly follow the guidelines mentioned below when handling modules which are sensitive to ESD:

• Always discharge your body´s static electricity before handling modules which are sensitive to ESD (for example, by touching a grounded object).

• All devices and tools must be free of static charge.

• Always pull the power plug and disconnect the battery before you install or remove

modules which are sensitive to ESD.

• Handle modules fitted with ESDs by their edges only.

Deployment planning

4.1 4.1 Transport

Although the Rack PC has a rugged design, its internal components are sensitive to severe vibrations or shock. You must therefore protect the PC from severe mechanical stress when transporting it.

You should always use the original packaging for shipment of the device.

Caution Risk of damage to the device!

When transporting the PC in cold weather it may be submitted to extreme variations in temperature. In this situation, make sure that condensation does not develop on or inside the device.

If condensation develops, wait at least 12 hours before switching on the device.

4.2 4.2 Unpacking and checking the delivery unit

Unpacking the device

Note the following points when you unpack the unit

• It is advisable not to dispose of the original packing material. Keep it in case you have to transport the unit again.

• Please keep the documentation in a safe place. It is required for initial commissioning and is part of the device.

• Check the delivery unit for any visible transport damage.

• Verify that the shipment contains the complete unit and your separately ordered

accessories.

• Please inform your local dealer of any disagreements or transport damages.

• Please inform Siemens AG by means of the enclosed SIMATIC IPC/PG quality control

report form.

4.3 4.3 Ambient and environmental conditions

When you plan your project, you should make allowances for:

• Note the climatic and mechanical environmental conditions specified in the technical data

in your operating manual.

• Avoid extreme ambient conditions as much as possible. Protect your PC from dust,

moisture, and heat.

• The device has been designed for usage in a normal industrial environment according to

IEC 60721-3-3 (pollutant class 3C2 for chemical influence, 3S2 for sand and dust.) SIMATIC Rack PCs may not be used in severe operating environments, for example locations with acidic vapors or gasses, without additional protective measures (such as the provision of clean air.)

• Keep the PC out of direct sunlight.

• Mount the PC as safely as possible to prevent danger (for example, of falling over).

• The device satisfies protection class IP 30 on the front panel.

• The clearance in the area of the ventilation slots must be at least 50 mm, so that the PC

is sufficiently ventilated.

• Do not cover the vent slots of the device.

• The device enclosure satisfies fire protection requirements to EN 60950. It may therefore

be installed without additional fire-proofing measures.

Warning If these conditions are not upheld while mounting the system, the approvals according to

UL 60950, EN 60950 are forfeited and there is a danger of overheating and personal injury.

To be noted before you connect the device

Note The long-range power supply module is designed for operation on 100-240 networks. It is

not necessary to adjust the voltage range.

Warning Do not connect or disconnect power and data cables during thunderstorms.

Warning The device is designed for operation on grounded power supply networks (TN systems to

VDE 0100, part 300, or IEC 60364-3). Operation on ungrounded or impedance-grounded power networks (IT networks) is

prohibited.

Warning The permitted rated voltage of the device must conform with local mains voltage.

Caution The mains connector must be disconnected to fully isolate the device from mains. Ensure

easy access to this area. A master mains disconnect switch must be installed if the device is mounted in a switch

cabinet. Always ensure free and easy access to the power inlet on the device, or that the safety power outlet of the building installation is freely accessible and located close to the device.
