ESD guide
These modules are equipped with electrostatic sensitive
components.
If the connection is touched, these sensitive components may be
damaged or their service life shortened by electric field or charge
balance effects. You may find information about electrostatic hazard
components in DIN EN 61340-5-1 (2007-08) and DIN EN 61340-5-2
(2007-08).
Device casing
Only technicians authorized by the manufacturer are allowed to open
the enclosure.
Keep the cooling fins free to ensure good air circulation.
Verify that there is at least 10 cm (4 in) of space around the cooling
fins of the casing.
Do not touch the housing during operation or shortly after switching
off the device. Hot surfaces can cause injury.
Install the device horizontally in the cabinet or vertically on a flat
surface. Operating the device as a table unit is inadmissible.
See installing and grounding the device on Page 41.
Operate the device at the maximum ambient air temperature and in
stacking: when to install the device, confirm that there is at least
one available rack space that is approximately 5 cm (2 in) above the
device to allow heat to escape through the enclosure of the device.
If you operate the device in a 19ʺswitch cabinet: install the slide /
rails to support the weight of the device.
Installation site requirements
Operate the device at the specified ambient temperature (temperature
of the ambient air at a distance of 5 cm (2 in) from the device) and at
the specified relative humidity exclusively.
When you are selecting the installation location, make sure you
observe the climatic threshold values specified in the technical data.
Use the device in an environment with a maximum pollution degree
that complies with the specifications in the technical data.
Increased ambient temperature: When you are operating the device
in a closed switch cabinet or together with other devices in a switch
cabinet, the ambient temperature in the switch cabinet can be
higher than the ambient temperature in the room. Only install the
device in an ambient temperature in line with the maximum ambient
temperature specified by the manufacturer: tmax.
Mechanical stress: Install the device in a switch cabinet in such a
way that rules out hazardous conditions due to severe mechanical
stress.
