3 Installation
3.1 Incoming acceptance, transport, storage
The permitted ambient and storage conditions must be observed. The precise specifications can be
found in Section 10 "Technical data".
3.1.1 Incoming acceptance
On receipt of the goods, check the following points:
• Are the packaging or contents damaged?
• Is anything missing from the delivery? Compare the scope of delivery with the information you
specified in the order. See also section 2.2 "Scope of delivery".
3.1.2 Transportation and storage
Note the following points:
• Pack the device so that is protected against impact for storage and transportation. The original
packaging provides optimum protection.
• The permitted storage temperature range is -40 to +85°C (-40 to +185 °F); it is possible to store
the device in the limit temperature ranges for a limited period (maximum 48 hours).
3.2 Installation conditions
The device is designed to be used in the field.
The orientation is determined by the readability of the display. Cable entries are located on the
bottom of the device.
Operational temperature range:
-40 to 60 °C (-40 to 140 °F)
"Caution!
If the device is operated in the upper temperature limit range, this reduces the operating life of the
device.
!Note!
Readability of the display cannot be guaranteed at temperatures below -30 °C (-22 °F).

4 Wiring
#Warning!
Make sure that no voltage is supplied when wiring the device.
"Caution!
• The protective ground connection must be established before any other connection is made. A
source of danger could arise if the protective ground connection is disconnected.
• Prior to commissioning, make sure the supply voltage matches the specifications on the nameplate
(left side of the housing).
• It is not permitted to connect a mixture of safety extra low voltage and voltage which poses a
shock hazard to the relays.
• Provide a suitable switch or power-circuit breaker in the building installation. This switch must
be provided within easy reach of the device and be labeled as a disconnector.
• An overcurrent protection unit (nominal current = 10 A) is required for the power cable.
!Note!
Observe the terminal designation inside the device.
4.1 Connecting the device
A transmitter power supply system (LPS) is provided for every input. The transmitter power supply
system is primarily provided to supply power to 2-wire sensors and is galvanically isolated from the
system and the outputs.
