Safety instructions
Important: Never install the equipment during a lightning storm!
This equipment, KT-400 Ethernet Four-Door Controller Model KT-400-EU, shall be used installed and
used within an environment that provides the pollution degree max 2 and over voltages category
II NON HAZARDOUS LOCATIONS, INDOOR only. The equipment is FIXED and PERMANENTLY
CONNECTED and is designed to be installed by Service Persons only;
[service person is defined as a person having the appropriate technical training and experience
necessary to be aware of hazards to which that person may be exposed in performing a task and
of measures to minimize the risks to that person or other persons.] The equipment is installed in a
metallic cabinet that meets the applicable requirements for a FIRE ENCLOSURE.
Note: When installed on the North American Market, powered via the UL, cUL Listed 75VA
Transformer, the KT-400 Ethernet Four-Door Controller shall be connected to the mains by a
LICENSED ELECTRICIAN in accordance with the applicable rules of the National Electrical Code
or Canadian Electrical Code regarding this type of connection.
1. The connection to the mains supply must be made as per the local authorities rules and
regulations: In the UK as per BS6701. An appropriate disconnect device must be provided as
part of the building installation. Where it is not possible to rely on the identification of the
NEUTRAL in the AC MAINS SUPPLY, the disconnecting device must disconnect both poles
simultaneously (LINE and NEUTRAL).
2. AVOID setting up the equipment near heaters, air conditioners, ventilators, and/or
refrigerators; DO NOT select a place that exposes your controller to direct sunlight, excessive
heat, moisture, vapors, chemicals or dust.
3. If during the installation a knockout on the cabinet is removed, it is the installer's
responsibility to ensure that the same degree of protection for the cabinet is provided by the
use of bushings, fittings, adequate sealant, etc.
4. The metallic cabinet must be secured to the building structure before operation. Use four
(4) stainless steel tapping screws #8, 32 mm (1.25 in) to mount the cabinet.
5. The ground connection must be as shown within the included diagram, or equivalent.
6. Internal wiring must be routed in a manner that prevents:
- Excessive strain on wire and on terminal connections;
- Loosening of terminal; connection
- Damage of conductor insulation;
- Reducing the clearance between SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) circuits and NON-POWER
Limited Circuits (Battery wires);
- Route the battery wires away from the rest of the SELV circuits.
7. It is the end-user and/or installer's responsibility to ensure that the disposal of the used
batteries is made according to the waste recovery and recycling regulations applicable to the
intended market.
8. There are no serviceable parts within the equipment; For any issues regarding the
equipment please contact your installer.
