Read this user manual carefully and keep it for future reference.
1.1 Identification of warning notes
1.2 Qualification of users
The use of products described in this user manual is oriented exclusively to:
– Electrically skilled persons or persons instructed by them. The users must be familiar
with the relevant safety concepts of automation technology as well as applicable stan-
dards and other regulations.
– Qualified application programmers and software engineers. The users must be familiar
with the relevant safety concepts of automation technology as well as applicable stan-
dards and other regulations.
This symbol indicates hazards that could lead to personal injury.
There are three signal words indicating the severity of a potential injury.
DANGER
Indicates a hazard with a high risk level. If this hazardous situation is not
avoided, it will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Indicates a hazard with a medium risk level. If this hazardous situation is not
avoided, it could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
Indicates a hazard with a low risk level. If this hazardous situation is not avoided,
it could result in minor or moderate injury.
This symbol together with the NOTE signal word warns the reader of actions
that might cause property damage or a malfunction.
Here you will find additional information or detailed sources of information.

1.3 Field of application of the product
1.3.1 Intended use
The ImpulseCheck module is an assistance system for collecting measured data of over-
voltage events. The collected measured data is sent to the PROFICLOUD. The measured
data is evaluated in the PROFICLOUD and the status of the connected surge protection is
displayed on the ImpulseCheck module.
The device has an IP20 protection class and is designed for use in closed control cabinets
or control boxes (junction boxes) with IP54 degree of protection or higher.
1.3.2 Foreseeable misuse
To use the ImpulseCheck module, an Internet connection is required.
• Make sure that the ImpulseCheck module has a connection to the Internet.
1.3.3 Modifications
Modifications to hardware and firmware of the device are not permitted.
Incorrect operation or modifications to the device can endanger your safety or damage the
device. Do not repair the device yourself. If the device is defective, please contact
Phoenix Contact.
1.4 Safety notes
Observe the country-specific installation, safety, and accident prevention regulations.
During startup and maintenance work, proceed in accordance with the five safety rules of
DIN EN 50110-1. In general, the rules should be observed in the order indicated below:
– Disconnect safely
– Ensure power cannot be switched on again
– Verify safe isolation from the supply
– Ground and short circuit
– Cover or safeguard adjacent live parts
Once the work is complete, perform the above steps again in reverse order.

NOTE: Risk of unauthorized network access
Connecting devices to a network via Ethernet always entails the risk of unauthorized ac-
cess to the network.
Therefore, please check for the option of disabling active communication channels in your
application (for instance SNMP, FTP, BootP, DCP, HTTP, HTTPS, etc.) or setting pass-
words to prevent third parties from accessing the device without authorization and modi-
fying the system.
Due to its communication interfaces, the device should not be used in safety-critical ap-
plications unless additional security appliances are used.
Please take additional protective measures in accordance with the IT security require-
ments and the standards applicable to your application (e.g. virtual networks (VPN) for re-
mote maintenance access, firewalls, etc.) for protection against unauthorized network
access.
On first request, you shall release Phoenix Contact and the companies associated with
Phoenix Contact GmbH & Co. KG, Flachsmarktstrasse 8, 32825 Blomberg in accordance
with §§15ff.AktG (German Stock Corporation Act), hereinafter collectively referred to as
“Phoenix Contact”, from all third-party claims made due to improper use.
For the protection of networks for remote maintenance via VPN, Phoenix Contact offers
the mGuard product range of security appliances, a description of which you will find in
the latest Phoenix Contact catalog (phoenixcontact.net/products).
Additional measures for protection against unauthorized network access are listed in the
AH EN INDUSTRIAL SECURITY application note. The application note can be down-
loaded at phoenixcontact.net/products.
NOTE: Electrostatic discharge
The device contains components that can be damaged or destroyed by electrostatic dis-
charge. When handling the device, observe the necessary safety precautions against
electrostatic discharge (ESD) in accordance with EN 61340-5-1 and IEC 61340-5-1.
NOTE: Electrical damage
Performing work on the ImpulseCheck module during operation can damage the device
electronics.
• Disconnect the power to the ImpulseCheck module for all work on the device.
• Make sure that the supply voltage cannot be switched on again by unauthorized per-
sons.
NOTE: Device failure
The device is designed to be powered by an external 24 V DC voltage supply. The per-
missible voltage range is from 20 V DC to 29 V DC (ripple included). If the voltage ex-
ceeds or falls below the permitted voltage range, this may lead to device failure.
NOTE: Property damage due to impermissible stress
The device has an IP20 rating (IEC 60529/EN 60529) and is thus intended for use in a
clean and dry environment. If you use the device in an environment that is outside of the
specified limits, this may cause damage to the device.
• Do not subject the device to mechanical or thermal stress that exceeds the specified
limits.

NOTE: Device failure
The device is designed for a specific ambient temperature range (see Section 9.2, “Tech-
nical data”). If you operate, store or transport the device in ambient temperatures that are
not within the specified range, this may lead to device failure.
The device is automatically grounded (FE) when it is snapped onto a grounded
DIN rail.
There is an FE spring on the rear of the device. This spring creates the contact to the DIN
rail when the device is placed on the DIN rail.
