SCALANCE S
8Commissioning and Hardware Installation Manual, 05/2016, C79000-G8976-C266-06
2.2
Information on use in hazardous areas
WARNING
When used in hazardous environments corresponding to Class I, Division 2 or Class I,
Zone 2, the device must be installed in a cabinet or a suitable enclosure.
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD
DO NOT CONNECT OR DISCONNECT EQUIPMENT WHEN A FLAMMABLE OR
COMBUSTIBLE ATMOSPHERE IS PRESENT.
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD
SUBSTITUTION OF COMPONENTS MAY IMPAIR SUITABILITY FOR CLASS I, DIVISION
2 OR ZONE 2.
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD
DO NOT OPEN WHEN ENERGIZED.
WARNING
The device may only be operated in an environment with pollution degree 1 or 2 (see IEC
60664-1).
WARNING
The equipment is designed for operation with Safety Extra-Low Voltage (SELV) by a
Limited Power Source (LPS).
This means that only SELV / LPS complying with IEC 60950-1 / EN 60950-1 / VDE 0805-1
must be connected to the power supply terminals. The power supply unit for the equipment
power supply must comply with NEC Class 2, as described by the National Electrical Code
(r) (ANSI / NFPA 70).
If the equipment is connected to a redundant power supply (two separate power supplies),
both must meet these requirements.

Safety notices
2.3 Notices on use in hazardous areas according to ATEX and IECEx
SCALANCE S
Commissioning and Hardware Installation Manual, 05/2016, C79000-G8976-C266-06 9
WARNING
If a device is operated in an ambient temperature of more than 45 ℃, the temperature of
the device housing may be higher than 70 °C. The device must therefore be installed so
that it is only accessible to service personnel or users that are aware of the reason for
restricted access and the required safety measures at an ambient temperature higher than
45 ℃.
2.3
Notices on use in hazardous areas according to ATEX and IECEx
Safety notices for use according to ATEX and IECEx
If you use the device under ATEX or IECEx conditions you must also keep to the following
safety notices in addition to the general safety notices for protection against explosion:
WARNING
To comply with EC Directive 94/9 (ATEX95) or the conditions of IECEx, this enclosure or
cabinet must meet the requirements of at least IP54 in compliance with EN 60529.
WARNING
Take measures to prevent transient voltage surges of more than 40% of the rated voltage.
This is the case if you only operate devices with SELV (safety extra-low voltage).
WARNING
Safety measures at higher temperatures
If the cable or conduit entry point exceeds 70 °C or the branching point of conductors
exceeds 80 °C, special precautions must be taken. If the equipment is operated in an air
ambient in excess of 50 °C up to 70 ℃, only use cables with an admitted maximum
operating temperature of at least 100 ℃.
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD
Do not press the RESET button if there is a potentially explosive atmosphere.

Safety notices when using the device according to Underwriters Laboratories for Hazardous
Locations (UL-HazLoc)
If you use the device under UL-HazLoc conditions you must also keep to the following safety
notices in addition to the general safety notices for protection against explosion:
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD
DO NOT DISCONNECT WHILE CIRCUIT IS LIVE UNLESS AREA IS KNOWN TO BE
NON-HAZARDOUS.
This equipment is suitable for use in Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C and D or non-
hazardous locations only.
This equipment is suitable for use in Class I, Zone 2, Group IIC or non-hazardous locations
only.
2.5
Information on use in hazardous areas according to UL
Valid only in areas where NEC or CEC applies
WARNING
Warning for areas subject to NEC or CEC:
Safety notice for connectors with LAN (Local Area Network) marking:
A LAN or LAN segment, with all its associated interconnected equipment, shall be entirely
contained within a single low-voltage power distribution and within a single building. The
LAN is considered to be in an "environment A" according IEEE802.3 or "environment 0"
according IEC TR 62102, respectively.
Never make direct electrical connection to TNV-circuits (Telephone Network) or WAN
(Wide Area Network).

WARNING
Use safety extra-low voltage only
The SCALANCE S device is designed for operation with safety extra-low voltage. This
means that only safety extra-low voltages (SELV) complying with IEC950/EN60950/
VDE0805 can be connected to the power supply terminals.
The power supply unit to supply the SCALANCE S must comply with NEC Class 2 (voltage
range 19.2 - 28.8 V).
The device may only be supplied by a power unit that meets the requirements of class 2 for
power supply units of the "National Electrical Code, Table 11 (b)". If the device is connected
to a redundant power supply (two separate power supplies), both must meet these
requirements.
Note
Never connect the
SCALANCE S to AC voltage or to DC voltage higher than 28.8 VDC.
The power supply is connected using a 4-pin plug-in terminal block. The power supply can
be connected redundantly. Both inputs are isolated. There is no distribution of load. When a
redundant power supply is used, the power supply unit with the higher output voltage
supplies the SCALANCE S alone. The power supply is connected over a high resistance
with the enclosure to allow an ungrounded set up.

Signaling contact
Note
The signaling contact can be subjected to a maximum load of 100 mA (safety extra
-low
voltage (SELV), DC 24 V).
Never connect the signaling contact of the SCALANCE S to AC voltage or to DC voltage
higher than 32 VDC. The polarity of the connectors is irrelevant.
The signaling contact is connected to a 2-pin plug-in terminal block. The signaling contact is
a floating switch with which error/fault states can be signaled by breaking the contact.
The following errors/faults can be signaled by the signaling contact:
●Fault in the power supply
●Internal fault
If a fault occurs or if no power is applied to the SCALANCE S, the signaling contact is
opened. In normal operation, the signaling contact is closed.

Fault indicator (fault LED)
Display of the operating state:
Status
Meaning
Lit red Device detects an error
(Signaling contact is open)
The following faults/errors are detected:
•internal fault/error (e.g. startup failed)
•Invalid C-PLUG (invalid formatting)
Lit green Device is in productive operation
(Signaling contact closed)
Not lit Device failure; no power supply
(Signaling contact is open)
Lit orange (constant) Device is starting up
(Signaling contact is open)
If no IP address was assigned, the device remains in this status.
Flashes orange and red alter-
nately
Device resets itself to factory settings
(Signaling contact is open)
Power LEDs (L1, L2)
The status of the power supply is indicated by two LEDs:
Status
Meaning
LED L1 / L2
Lit green
Power supply L1 or L2 is connected.
Not lit in non-
redundant mode: Power supply L1 or L2 is not connected or
< 14 V (L+).
Lit red In redundant mode: One of the two connected power supplies L1
or L2 failed during operation or < 14 V (L+).
Port status indicator (green/yellow LEDs)
The status of each of the interfaces is indicated by a two-color LED per port:
