Installation and Maintenance
Before installing the ABB EI813F, ensure the installation location meets the following prerequisites: the ambient temperature should be within the module’s operating temperature range of -20°C to +70°C (-4°F to +158°F), and the relative humidity should not exceed 95% (non-condensing). The installation area should be free from conductive dust and corrosive gases, with sufficient space for ventilation and heat dissipation around the module. The installation surface should be flat, stable, and capable of bearing the module’s weight. For DIN rail mounting, use a standard 35mm DIN rail and secure the module to the rail using the dedicated mounting clips. During installation, ensure the module is securely mounted and all connections are tight to prevent loosening due to vibrations. Grounding is crucial; connect the module’s grounding terminal to a reliable grounding point to minimize electromagnetic interference.
