Safety instructions and installation requirements for the PS1061-2420-0000 power supply
DANGER
Danger of electric shock, fire, injuries, injuries resulting in death!
• Do not use the power supply without proper grounding (protective conductor). Use the terminal at the in-
put terminal strip for the earth connection, not one of the screws on the housing.
• Switch off the power supply before working on the device. Provide protection against unintentional re-
connection.
• Ensure proper wiring by following all local and national regulations.
• Do not modify or attempt to repair the device.
• Do not open the device, as high voltages are present inside.
• Avoid foreign bodies entering the housing.
• Do not use the device in damp locations or in areas where moisture or condensation is likely to occur.
• Do not touch the device when it is switched on or immediately after it has been switched off. Hot sur-
faces can cause burns.
• If this device is operated outside of the specification, the protection offered by the device may be nega-
tively affected
Further notes on installation requirements
• If any damage or malfunction occurs during installation or operation, turn off the power supply
immediately and return the device to the factory for inspection.
• Mount the device on a DIN rail so that the input terminals are at the bottom of the device.
• Install the device in a housing that provides protection against electrical, mechanical and fire
hazards.
• Make sure that the wiring is correct by complying with all local and national regulations.
ðUse suitable copper cables designed for a minimum operating temperature of
60°C at ambient temperatures up to +45°C,
75°C at ambient temperatures up to +55°C and
90°C at ambient temperatures up to +70°C.
ðMake sure that all individual strands of a wire are inside the terminal connection.
ðUnused screw terminals should be tightened firmly.
• The maximum temperature of the ambient air is +70°C. The operating temperature corresponds
to the ambient air temperature and is defined 2cm below the device.
• This device is designed for convection cooling and does not require an external fan. Do not ob-
struct the air circulation. The ventilation grille must not be covered (e.g. by cable ducts)!
• Maintain the following installation distances:
ð40mm at the top, 20mm at the bottom and 5mm on the left and right are recommended if
the device continuously runs at more than 50% of the rated output.
ðIncrease this distance to 15mm if the adjacent device is a heat source (e.g., another power
supply).
ðThe distance can be reduced from 5mm to zero if the device is permanently loaded with
less than 50%.
• The device is designed, tested and approved for branch circuits up to 20A without an additional
protective device.
Use an additional protective device for branch circuits with larger current values. If an external in-
put protection device is used, do not use one smaller than a 10A B or 6A C characteristic in or-
der to avoid incorrect triggering of the circuit breaker.
• The device is designed as equipment of "Protection Class I" according to IEC61140.
ðDo not use the device without a proper PE (Protective Earth) connection!
