Special connection requirements: If two communication ports need to be used on the same physical port, Y-shaped distribution cable TK860V001 (part number 3BSE069476R1) must be used.

The contour diagram indicates the key dimensions of the operation panel (unit: mm), such as 286mm (partial length), maximum 8mm (related to installation plate thickness), 54mm (partial height), 268mm (partial length), 392mm (partial length), 410mm (overall length), etc. For detailed dimensions, please refer to the contour diagram in the manual.

（4） Environmental temperature

Temperature influencing factors: The maximum ambient temperature of the operation panel is specified in the specifications. Here, the ambient temperature refers to the temperature at which the electronic components of the operation panel are cooled inside the equipment cabinet; In most cases, the ambient temperature of the control panel is much higher than that of the equipment cabinet; If the cabinet is high and contains multiple heating devices, the temperature at the top of the cabinet will be much higher than the expected temperature rise. All electronic devices are sensitive to heat, and the lifespan of electrolytic capacitors will be reduced by half with an increase of 8-10 ° C in temperature, and by a quarter with an increase of 15-20 ° C, and so on.

Temperature control suggestion: Rittal provides a solution for estimating the expected average temperature of the cabinet and various cabinet temperature control systems; The radiant heat value of enamel steel cabinets is 5.5W/(m ² ·° C); Installing fans inside the cabinet can make the temperature uniform, and the cooling effect of flowing air is much better than that of static air; The fan should be installed in a cooler area to blow cold air towards the control panel. If the fan is installed at the top and draws heat absorbing air upwards, it will cause the ambient temperature of the fan to rise and shorten its lifespan; The net power consumption of the operation panel can be estimated by multiplying the power supply voltage by the operating current of the operation panel (assuming that all power supply is converted into heat).

（5） Security

Power supply safety: Most operation panels are powered by 24V DC; If using a power supply that meets safety standards and only supplies power to the operation panel, there are no safety issues; If a 24V power supply is supplying power to other devices at the same time, caution should be taken. In the event of a potential short circuit between 230V AC and 24V DC on the control panel, insulation that meets safety requirements is not available. Assuming that 24V power supply is safe (such as SELV that complies with EN 60950 (anti electric shock) and UL 950 standards).

Potential risks and solutions: In small controllers, if the 24V relay contacts are mixed with the 230V AC relay contacts, it may compromise the safety of 24V DC power supply. It is necessary to check whether the electrical clearance and creepage distance between 24V DC and 230V AC comply with EN 60950 or UL 950 standards. If they do not comply, a separate 24V power supply needs to be configured for the operation panel; If the distance between the contacts of 24V DC and 230V AC relays is large enough, the same 24V device can be used to power all devices; There are three advantages to grounding a 24V power supply with 0V: improving safety (if there is a connection error or short circuit between the 0V (24V) and 230V phase lines, the 24V power supply will not be charged), guiding transient signals on the 24V power supply to the ground, and avoiding the 24V power supply being at a high potential relative to the ground (which is prone to occur when static electricity is high).

（6） Galvanic isolation

Isolation feature: The operation panel has electrical isolation for 24V DC power supply, but there is no electrical isolation between communication ports such as RS232, RS422/485, and USB. Only Ethernet connections have electrical isolation.

Grounding and communication risks: When the PC is connected to the operation panel, the internal 0V (GND) of the panel is connected to the protective ground through the PC; The shielding layer of multiple USB devices may be connected to the protective ground, for example, when inserting USB flash drives, keyboards, and other devices, the 0V (GND) of the operation panel will be connected to the protective ground; If multiple devices have 0V and ground connections, and are connected to different grounding points, it is highly likely to cause problems. Grounding current may pass through communication cables, controller backplanes, and the interior of the operation panel, leading to errors.

Improvement measures: External devices can be used to improve communication and achieve electrical isolation, such as Westermo's industrial standard isolator (also isolated from 24V DC feed); It is necessary to ensure that the 24V power supply of the external isolator is not connected to any communication output terminal. If it is not 100% isolated from the 24V power supply, the interference of 0V on the 24V side and the grounding current will interfere with communication. Such equipment may solve one problem but cause bigger problems. Improper installation may temporarily work normally, but faults may occur when connecting other devices.

（7） RS485 cable and bus terminal

Cable requirements: If maximum transmission distance and maximum transmission speed are required, shielded twisted pair cables should be used, with a mutual capacitance not exceeding 52.5pF/m and a cable cross-sectional area of at least 0.25mm ² (AWG 24); The communication reference voltage of 0V should be included in the cable, and bidirectional communication requires the use of two pairs of wires (one pair for communication and one pair for 0V).

Shielding and termination: The shielding layer needs to be grounded at one end, and the other end is usually also grounded. However, when long-distance transmission or grounding potential is different, the shielding layer should be grounded through a 0.1 μ F/250V plastic capacitor to prevent grounding current from being generated in the braided shielding layer; Different manufacturers have different systems for bus terminals. Depending on the design of the receiving end, the bus wires may be at the same level or require pull-up/pull-down resistors to ensure that no error signals are detected when the bus is in idle mode (all transmitters are disconnected).
