5 Safety and installation notes
5.1 Symbols used
Instructions and possible hazards are indicated by
corresponding symbols in this document.
There are different categories of personal injury that are
indicated by a signal word.
The following symbols are used to indicate potential
damage, malfunctions, or more detailed sources of
information.
5.2 Safety and warning notes
– Only skilled persons may install, start up, and operate
the device.
– Never carry out work when voltage is present.
– Establish connection correctly and ensure protection
against electric shock.
– Cover termination area after installation in order to avoid
accidental contact with live parts (e. g., installation in
control cabinet).
– Protection may be impaired if the equipment is used in
a manner not specified by the manufacturer.
– Observe the national safety and accident prevention
regulations.
– Assembly and electrical installation must correspond to
the state of the art.
– The power supply is a built-in device and is designed for
mounting in a control cabinet.
– The IP20 degree of protection of the device is intended
for use in a clean and dry environment.
– Observe mechanical and thermal limits.
– Ensure minimum clearances to external heat sources.
– Mount the power supply unit in the standard installation
position.
– Ensure that the primary-side wiring and secondary-side
wiring are the correct size and have sufficient fuse
protection.
– For the connection parameters for wiring the power
supply, suchas the required stripping length with and
without ferrule, refer to the technical data section.
– Use copper cables for operating temperatures of
75°C (ambient temperature 55°C)
90°C (ambient temperature 75°C).
– Protect the device against foreign bodies penetrating it,
e.g., paper clips or metal parts.
– The power supply is maintenance-free. Repairs may
only be carried out by the manufacturer. The warranty
no longer applies if the housing is opened.
– The power supply may only be used for its intended use.
This is the safety alert symbol. It is used to alert
you to potential personal injury hazards. Obey all
safety measures that follow this symbol to avoid
possible personal injuries.
WARNING
This indicates a hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
This indicates a hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, could result in minor or moderate injury.
NOTE
This symbol together with the signal word NOTE
and the accompanying text alert the reader to a
situation which may cause damage or malfunction
to the device, hardware/software, or surrounding
property.
This symbol and the accompanying text provide
the reader with additional information or refer to
detailed sources of information.
WARNING: Danger to life by electric shock!
WARNING: Risk of burns
The heatsinks of the power supply can reach
temperatures >65°C, depending on the load.

The continuous total output power may not exceed
PN at 60°C ambient temperature and PStat. Boost at
40°C ambient temperature. Observe all the
maximum output powers for all operating
conditions.
NOTE: Damage to the Push-in connection
terminal blocks is possible
Do not plug test pins into the Push-in connection
terminal blocks. The maximum pluggable depth of
the Push-in connection terminal blocks is limited.
In addition, when the test pin is plugged in, the
unlocking button (pusher) is covered to such an
extent that unlocking is not possible or only
possible to an insufficient extent. If you do not
push the unlocking button (pusher) down
completely when you are pulling the test pin out,
then the Push-in connection terminal block will
become damaged.

6 High-voltage test (HIPOT)
This power supply is subject to the Low Voltage Directive
and is factory tested. During the HIPOT test (high-voltage
test), the insulation between the input circuit and output
circuit is tested for the prescribed electric strength values,
forexample. The test voltage in the high-voltage range is
applied at the input and output terminal blocks of the power
supply. The operating voltage used in normal operation is
considerably lower than the test voltage used.
6.1 High-voltage dielectric test (dielectric strength
test)
In order to ensure permanent safe isolation of the DC input
circuit and DC output circuit, high-voltage testing is
performed as part of the safety approval process (type test)
and manufacturing (routine test).
6.2 High-voltage dielectric test during the
manufacturing process
During the manufacturing process for the power supply, a
high-voltage test is performed as part of the dielectric test in
accordance with the specifications of IEC/UL/EN61010-1.
The high-voltage test is performed with a test voltage of at
least 2kVDC or higher. Routine manufacturing tests are
inspected regularly by a certification authority.
6.3 High-voltage dielectric test performed by the
customer
Apart from routine and type tests to guarantee electrical
safety, the end user does not have to perform another high-
voltage test on the power supply as an individual
component. According to EN 60204-1 (Safety of machinery
- Electrical equipment of machines) the power supply can be
disconnected during the high-voltage test and only installed
once the high-voltage test has been completed.
6.3.1 Performing high-voltage testing
If high-voltage testing of the control cabinet or the power
supply as a stand-alone component is planned during final
inspection and testing, the following features must be
observed.
– The power supply wiring must be implemented as
shown in the wiring diagram.
– The maximum permissible test voltages must not be
exceeded.
Avoid unnecessary loading or damage to the power supply
due to excessive test voltages.

test
