Environment and Enclosure

ATTENTION This equipment is intended for use in a Pollution Degree 2 industrial
environment, in overvoltage Category II applications (as defined in IEC
publication 60664-1), at altitudes up to 2000 m (6562 ft) without derating.
This equipment is considered Group 1, Class A industrial equipment according

to IEC/CISPR Publication 11. Without appropriate precautions, there may be
potential difficulties ensuring electromagnetic compatibility in other
environments due to conducted as well as radiated disturbance.
This equipment is supplied as ‘open-type’ equipment. It must be mounted

within an enclosure that is suitably designed for those specific environmental
conditions that will be present and appropriately designed to prevent personal
injury resulting from accessibility to live parts. The enclosure must have
suitable flame-retardant properties to prevent or minimize the spread of flame,
complying with a flame spread rating of 5VA, V2, V1, V0 (or equivalent) if
non-metallic. The interior of the enclosure must be accessible only by the use
of a tool. Subsequent sections of this publication may contain additional
information regarding specific enclosure type ratings that are required to
comply with certain product safety certifications.
In addition to this publication, see:
• Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, for additional

installation requirements, Allen-Bradley publication 1770-4.1.
• NEMA Standards publication 250 and IEC publication 60529, as

applicable, for explanations of the degrees of protection provided by
different types of enclosure.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge

ATTENTION This equipment is sensitive to electrostatic discharge, which can cause internal
damage and affect normal operation. Follow these guidelines when you handle
this equipment:
• Touch a grounded object to discharge potential static.

• Wear an approved grounding wriststrap.
• Do not touch connectors or pins on component boards.
• Do not touch circuit components inside the equipment.
• Use a static-safe workstation, if available.
• Store the equipment in appropriate static-safe packaging when not in
use.
Removal and Insertion Under Power (RIUP)

WARNING When you insert or remove the module while backplane power is on, an
electrical arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous location
installations. Be sure that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous
before proceeding. Repeated electrical arcing causes excessive wear to
contacts on both the module and its mating connector. Worn contacts may
create electrical resistance that can affect module operation.
When you connect or disconnect the removable terminal block (RTB) with
field-side power applied, an electrical arc can occur. This could cause an
explosion in hazardous location installations. Be sure that power is removed or
the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.
If you connect or disconnect wiring while the field-side power is on, an

before proceeding.

About the 1756-IF8H Analog Input Module with HART Protocol

The 1756-IF8H analog input module combines eight channels of analog input
and the HART (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer) protocol. This
module stores digitally converted volt (V) and milliamp (mA) analog data and
HART field-instrument data.
Before You Begin

IMPORTANT Before you install your module, you should have already:
• installed and grounded a 1756 chassis and power supply.
• ordered and received a removable terminal block (RTB) or 1492
interface module (IFM) and its components for your application.
Module Components
You received these components with your order:
• 1756-IF8H module
• Removable terminal block (RTB) door label
If you did not receive these components, contact your Rockwell Automation
sales office.
This module mounts in a ControlLogix chassis and uses a separately-ordered
removable terminal block (RTB) or a 1492 interface module (IFM) to connect
all field-side wiring.
This module uses one of these RTBs:
• 1756-TBCH 36-position cage clamp RTB
• 1756-TBS6H 36-position spring clamp RTB
Use an extended-depth cover (catalog number 1756-TBE) for applications
with heavy gauge wiring or requiring additional routing space.
When using an IFM, consult the documentation that came with it to connect
all wiring. This module supports these IFM catalog numbers:
• 1492-ACABLE-UD (current)
• 1492-ACABLE-UC (voltage)
• 1492-AIFM8-3

ATTENTION To comply with the CE Low Voltage Directive (LVD), I/O must be powered from
a source compliant with the following:
Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) or Protected Extra Low Voltage (PELV) limited
to 200VA.
ATTENTION The ControlLogix system has been agency certified by using only the
ControlLogix RTBs (catalog numbers 1756-TBCH, 1756-TBNH, 1756-TBSH and
1756-TBS6H). Any application that requires agency certification of the
ControlLogix system by using other wiring termination methods may require
application-specific approval by the certifying agency.
Power Requirements
This module receives power from the 1756 chassis power supply and requires
these two sources of power from the backplane:
• 300 mA at 5.1V DC
• 135 mA at 24V DC
Install the Module

You can install or remove the module while chassis power is applied.
ATTENTION The module is designed to support removal and insertion under power (RIUP).
However, when you remove or insert an RTB with field-side power applied,
unintended machine motion or loss of process control can occur. Exercise
extreme caution when using this feature.
1. Align the circuit board with the top and bottom chassis guides.

Key the Removable Terminal Block/Interface Module

Wedge-shaped keying tabs and U-shaped keying bands come with your RTB
to prevent connecting the wrong wires to your module. Key the positions on
the module that correspond to unkeyed positions on the RTB. For example, if
you key the first position on the module, leave the first position on the RTB
unkeyed.
1. To key the module, insert the U-shaped band and push the band until
it snaps into place.

in hazardous location installations. Be sure that power is removed or the area
is nonhazardous before proceeding.
Before installing the RTB, make certain:

• field-side wiring of the RTB has been completed.
• the RTB housing is snapped into place on the RTB.
• the RTB housing is closed.
• the locking tab at the top of the module is unlocked.
• the power is removed or the area is nonhazardous.
