INCOMPATIBLE COMPONENTS CAUSE ELECTRIC SHOCK OR ARC FLASH |
oDo not associate components of a slice that have different colors. oVerify that correct terminal blocks (minimally, matching colors and correct number of terminals) are installed on the appropriate electronic modules. |
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury. |
This section describes the characteristics of the TM5ACTB52FS Safety terminal block, you can also refer to TM5 Environmental Characteristics.
|
FIRE HAZARD |
oUse only the correct wire sizes for the current capacity of the I/O channels and power supplies. oFor relay output (2 A) wiring, use conductors of at least 0.5 mm2 (AWG 20) with a temperature rating of at least 80 °C (176 °F). oFor common conductors of relay output wiring (4 A), or relay output wiring greater than 2 A, use conductors of at least 1.0 mm2 (AWG 16) with a temperature rating of at least 80 °C (176 °F). |
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury. |
|
UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION |
Do not connect wires to unused terminals and/or terminals indicated as “No Connection (N.C.)”. |
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage. |
|
UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION |
Do not exceed any of the rated values specified in the characteristics tables. |
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage. |
