General information
Environmental considerations
The following informaon refers to the environmental impact of the product and the product end-of-life handling.
Observe the following guidelines when recycling a DEWETRON system:
System and components recycling
The producon of these components has required the extracon and use of natural resources. The
substances contained in the system could be harmful to your health and to the environment if the
system is improperly handled at its end of life. Recycle this product in an appropriate way to avoid
an unnecessary polluon of the environment and to keep natural resources.
This symbol indicates that this system complies with the European Union’s requirements according
to Direcve 2002/96/EC on Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE). Further informa-
on about recycling can be found on the DEWETRON website (www.dewetron.com).
Restricon of hazardous substances
This product has been classied as Monitoring and Control equipment, and is outside the scope of the 2011/65/EU
RoHS Direcve. This product is known to contain lead.
Problematic network stacks
Oen intrusive IT soware or network processes can interfere with the primary funcon of the DEWETRON system: to
record data. Therefore we recommend strongly against the installaon of IT/MIS soware and running their process-
es on any DEWETRON data acquision system, and cannot guarantee the performance of our systems if they are so
congured.
Warranty information
A copy of the specic warranty terms applicable to your DEWETRON product and replacement parts can be obtained
from your local sales and service oce.

Safety
Safety instructions
The following secon contains warning and safety instrucons that must be observed by the user. Faultless operaon
can only be guaranteed if these instrucons are observed.
General safety instructions
`Use this system under the terms of the specicaons only to avoid any possible danger. If the unit is used in a man-
ner not specied by the manufacturer the protecon can be impaired.
`Maintenance is to be executed by qualied sta only.
`DO NOT use the system if equipment covers or shields are removed. If you assume the system is damaged, have it
examined by authorized personnel only.
`Any other use than described above may damage your system and is aended with dangers such as short-circuits,
re or electric shocks.
`The whole system must not be changed, rebuilt or opened (except for changing TRION modules).
`Reinstall ller panels of unused TRION slots to guarantee proper cooling of the installed modules. The warranty is
void if the modules overheat due to missing ller panels.
`If you assume a more riskless use is not provided anymore, the system has to be rendered inoperave and should
be protected against inadvertent operaon. It is assumed that a more riskless operaon is not possible anymore, if
– the system is damaged obviously or causes strange noises.
– the system does not work anymore.
– the system has been exposed to long storage in adverse environmental.
– the system has been exposed to heavy shipment strain.
`The warranty is void if damages caused by disregarding this manual. For consequenal damages NO liability will be
assumed.
`The warranty is void if damages to property or persons caused by improper use or disregarding the safety instruc-
ons.
`Unauthorized changing or rebuilding the system is prohibited due to safety and permission reasons (CE).
Excepon: changing DAQP/PAD/HSI/TRION/TRION3 modules.
`Prevent using metal bare wires as there is a risk of short-circuit and re hazard.
`DO NOT use the system before, during or shortly aer a thunderstorm (risk of lightning and high energy overvolt-
age). An advanced range of applicaon under certain condions is allowed with therefore designed products only.
For details refer to the specicaons.
`Make sure that your hands, shoes, clothes and as well as the oor, the system or measuring leads, integrated cir-
cuits etc. are dry.
`Use measurement leads or measurement accessories aligned to the specicaon of the system only. Fire hazard in
case of overload.
`Do not disassemble the system. There is a high risk of geng a perilous electric shock. Capacitors sll might
charged, even the system has been removed from the power supply.
`The measuring systems are not designed for use at humans and animals.
`Contact a professional if you have doubts about the method of operaon, safety or the connecon of the system.
`Handle the product with care. Shocks, hits and dropping it even from an already lower level may damage your
system.
For exact values refer to the enclosed specicaons.

`Also consider the detailed technical reference manual as well as the security advices of the connected systems.
Electrical safety instructions
`With this product, only use the power cable delivered or dened for the host country.
`DO NOT connect or disconnect sensors, probes or test leads, as these parts are connected to a voltage supply unit.
`The system is grounded via a protecve conductor in the power supply cord. To avoid electric shocks, the protecve
conductor has to be connected with the ground of the power network. Before connecng the input or output con-
nectors of the system, make sure that there is a proper grounding to guarantee potenal free usage. For countries,
in which there is no proper grounding, refer to your local legally safety regulaons for safety use.
`DC systems: Every DC system has a grounding connected to the chassis (yellow/green safety banana plug).
`Note the characteriscs and indicators on the system to avoid re or electric shocks. Before connecng the system,
carefully read and understand the corresponding specicaons in the product manual.
`The inputs are not, unless otherwise noted (CATx idencaon), for connecng to the main circuits of category II, III
and IV. The measurement category can be adjusted depending on module conguraon.
`The power cord or the main power switch separates the system from the power supply. Do not block the power
cord or main switch, since it has to be accessible for the users.
`Any direct voltage output is protected with a fuse against short-circuits and reverse-polarity, but is NOT galvanically
isolated (except it is explicit marked on the system).
`Supply overvoltage category is II.
`The system must be connected and operated to an earthed wall socket at the AC mains power supply only (except
for DC systems).
`DO NOT touch any exposed connectors or components if they are live wired. The use of metal bare wires is not
allowed. There is a risk of short-circuits and re hazard.
`The assembly of the system is equivalent to protecon class I. For power supply, only the correct power socket of
the public power supply must be used, except the system is DC powered.
`Be careful with voltages >25 VAC or >35 VDC. These voltages are already high enough in order to get a perilous electric
shock by touching the wiring.
`Unless otherwise stated, the maximum input voltage for measuring cards is 70 VDC and 46.7 VPEAK
`The electrical installaons and equipments in industrial facilies must be observed by the security regulaons and
insurance instuons.
Ambient safety notices
`This product is intended for use in industrial locaons. As a result, this product may cause interference if used in
residenal areas. Such use must be avoided unless the user takes special measures to reduce electromagnec emis-
sions to prevent interferences to the recepon of radio and television broadcasts.
`Do not switch on the system aer transporng it from a cold into a warm room and vice versa. The thereby created
condensaon may damage your system. Acclimase the system unpowered to room temperature.
`Any use in wet rooms, outdoors or in adverse environmental condion is not allowed. Adverse environmental condi-
ons are:
– Moisture or high humidity
– Dust, ammable gases, fumes or dissolver
– Thunderstorm or thunderstorm condions (except assembly PNA)
– Electrostac elds etc.
`DO NOT use the system in rooms with ammable gases, fumes or dust or in adverse environmental condions.
`Direct exposure of any DEWETRON product to strong sunlight or other heat radiaon shall be prevented, as this
