WARNING
Risk of injury due to electrical voltage!
Severe bodily injury or death can result! Therefore
please abide by the following:
· Switch off your installation before commenc-
ing work! Secure it against being switched on!
Check to be sure it is de-energized! Ground
and short circuit! Cover or block off adjacent
live parts!
· During operation and troubleshooting (espe-
cially for DIN rail devices), check your system
for dangerous voltages and switch these off if
necessary!
· Wear protective clothing and protective
equipment in accordance with applicable
guidelines when working on electrical sys-
tems!
· Before making connections to the device/the
component, ground the device by means of
the ground wire connection, if present.
· Do not touching bare or stripped leads that
are energized! Equip stranded conductors
with wire ferrules!
· Hazardous voltages can be present in all cir-
cuitry parts that are connected to the power
supply.
· Protect wires, cables and devices with a suit-
able line circuit breaker/fuse!
· Never switch off, remove or tamper with safe-
ty devices!
· There can still be hazardous voltages present
in the device or in the component even after
it has been disconnected from the supply
voltage (capacitor storage).
· Do not operate equipment with current trans-
former circuits when open.
· Only connect screw terminals with the same
number of poles and design!
· Do not exceed the limit values specified in
the user manual and on the rating plate! This
must also be observed during testing and
commissioning.

DANGER
Danger of electric shock!
Electric shocks lead to serious injuries, including
death.
· Disconnect your system from the power supply
before mounting and connecting the device!
· Secure it against being switched on!
· Check to be sure it is de-energized!
· Ground and short circuit!
· Cover or block off adjacent live parts!
· The installation must only be carried out by
qualified personnel with electrical training!
Mount the device in stationary and weatherproof
front panels or switchboard panels of switchboard
cabinets or indoor small distribution boards.
Ground conductive front or switchboard panels!
ATTENTION
Material damage due to disregard of the instal-
lation instructions!
Disregard of the installation instructions can dam-
age or destroy your device.
· Provide adequate air circulation in your in-
stallation environment and cooling, as need-
ed, when the ambient temperatures are high!
5.2 Mounting orientation
The cut-out dimension in the front panel or switch-
board is 92+0.8 mm x 92+0.8 mm
(3.62+0.03 in x 3.62+0.03 in).
