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.

Characteristics

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.
