UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION

Do not exceed any of the rated values specified in the environmental and electrical characteristics tables.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

For additional important information about fast output protection, refer to Protecting Outputs from Inductive Load Damage.

Isolation

Between input and internal bus

See note 1

Between channels

Not isolated

1 The isolation of the electronic module is 500 Vac RMS between the electronics powered by TM5 power bus and the part powered by 24 Vdc I/O power segment connected to the electronic module. In practice, there is a bridge between TM5 power bus and 24 Vdc I/O power segment. The two power circuits reference the same functional ground (FE) through specific components designed to reduce effects of electromagnetic interference. These components are rated at 30 Vdc or 60 Vdc. This effectively reduces isolation of the entire system from the 500 Vac RMS.

Warning_Color.gifWARNING

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.

Warning_Color.gifWARNING

UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION

Use the sensor and actuator power supply only for supplying power to sensors or actuators connected to the module.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
