Safety instructions (EN 61010-1)

In order to preclude any danger to the operator, the following instructions should be followed:

a)In case any damage or malfunction is detected, take the unit out of operation without delay.

b)Before disassembling the unit, disconnect all inputs / outputs and the supply voltage. When mounting the unit and the connections, make sure all live components are protected from being touched directly.

c)Comply with the usual regulations and safety provisions for low and high current systems, in particular country-specific safety provisions (e.g. VDE 0100).

d)The maximum admissible potential existing between the pin groups as well as to the external protective conductor must not be exceeded. Refer to the unit´s identification label.

e)When connecting the unit to other devices (e.g. PCs), the connection must be carefully planned. Internal connections in external units (e.g. GND connected to protective earth) may cause excessive voltage potential.

f )

This device must be grounded! For low voltage 12VDC and 24VDC systems use screened cable.

 

Units with a.c. supply voltage must be connected the protective conductor.

g)Make sure that the unit is property mounted before connection and power on !

In order to preclude any damage to the unit, the following items must be taken into account:

The maximum admissible potential between the pin groups must not be exceeded.

This applies in particular to high voltage tests.

Refer to the instruction manual !
