(2)Continuous shocks or vibrations.

(3)Direct sunlight.

(4)Dew condensation due to rapid temperature change.

(5)Higher or lower temperatures outside the range of 0 to 55

(6)Relative humidity outside the range of 5 to 95

(7)Corrosive or flammable gases

2)Precautions during installing

(1)During drilling or wiring, do not allow any wire scraps to enter into the PLC.

(2)Install it on locations that are convenient for operation.

(3)Make sure that it is not located on the same panel that high voltage equipment located.

(4)Make sure that the distance from the walls of duct and external equipment be 50mm or more.

(5)Be sure to be grounded to locations that have good ambient noise immunity.

3)Heat protection design of control box

(1)When installing the PLC in a closed control box, be sure to design heat protection of control box with consideration of the heat generated by the PLC itself and other devices.
