RUGGEDCOM RS8000H, refer to "Communication Ports (Page 19)". Required Tools and Materials The following tools and materials are required to install the RUGGEDCOM RS8000H: Tools/Materials Purpose AC or DC power cord (16 AWG) For connecting power to the device.
Siemens also does not recommend using copper Ethernet ports to interface with devices in the field across distances that could produce high levels of ground potential rise (i.e. greater than 2500 V), during line-to-ground fault conditions.
This product contains no user-serviceable parts. Attempted service by unauthorized personnel shall render all warranties null and void. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Siemens Canada Ltd. could invalidate specifications, test results, and agency approvals, and void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
Configure the device. Mounting the Device The RUGGEDCOM RS8000H is designed for maximum mounting and display flexibility. It can be equipped with connectors that allow it to be installed in a 48 cm (19 in) rack, 35 mm (1.4 in) DIN rail, or directly on a panel.
2.2.1 Mounting the Device on a DIN Rail The RUGGEDCOM RS8000H can be ordered with a panel/DIN rail adapter preinstalled on the back of the chassis. Use the adapter to mount the device to a standard 35 mm (1.4 in)IEC/EN 60715 or TS35 DIN rail.
Lift the device off the DIN rail. 2.2.2 Mounting the Device to a Rack To secure the device to a standard 48 cm (19 in) rack, do the following: Remove the four screws from the side of the device. RUGGEDCOM RS8000H Installation Manual, 12/2021, C79000-G8976-1022-06...

Forced airflow is not required. However, any increase in airflow will result in a reduction of ambient temperature and improve the long-term reliability of all equipment mounted in the rack space. Secure the adapter to the rack using the supplied hardware. RUGGEDCOM RS8000H Installation Manual, 12/2021, C79000-G8976-1022-06...
NO contact and closes the NC (Normally Closed) contact. Note Control of the failsafe relay output is configurable through RUGGEDCOM ROS. One common application for this relay is to signal an alarm if a power failure occurs. For RUGGEDCOM RS8000H Installation Manual, 12/2021, C79000-G8976-1022-06...
Normally Closed Common Normally Open Figure 2.5 Failsafe Alarm Relay Wiring Connecting Power The RUGGEDCOM RS8000H supports a single integrated high AC/DC or low DC power supply IMPORTANT • For 88-300 VDC rated equipment, an appropriately rated circuit breaker must be installed.
Using a braided wire or other appropriate grounding wire, connect the surge ground terminal to the chassis ground connection. The surge ground terminal is used as the ground conductor for all surge and transient suppression circuitry internal to the unit.
