Product Related Information
PS-B units are certified for use in Class I, Division 2 hazardous locations as defined
in ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 or CSA C22.2 N213. Observe the following:
NOTE: PS-B is a highly configurable device and is not based on a real-time
operating system. Changes to the software and settings of the following must be
considered new implementations as discussed in the previous warning messages.
Examples of such changes include:
System BIOS
System Monitor
Operating system
Installed hardware
Installed software
DANGER
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION OR ARC FLASH
Remove all power from the device before removing any covers or elements of
the system, and prior to installing or removing any accessories, hardware, or
cables.
Unplug the power cable from both the PS-B unit and the power supply.
Always use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm power is off.
Replace and secure all covers or elements of the system before applying power
to the unit.
Use only 24 Vdc when operating the PS-B unit.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
LOSS OF CONTROL
The designer of any control scheme must consider the potential failure modes
of control paths and, for certain critical control functions, provide a means to
achieve a safe state during and after a path failure. Examples of critical control
functions are emergency stop and overtravel stop.
Separate or redundant control paths must be provided for critical control
functions.
System control paths may include communication links. Consideration must be
given to the implications of unanticipated transmission delays or failures of the
link.*1
Each implementation of a PS-B unit must be individually and thoroughly tested
for proper operation before being placed into service.
*1For additional information, refer to NEMA ICS 1.1 (latest edition), "Safety
Guidelines for the Application, Installation, and Maintenance of Solid State
Control" and to NEMA ICS 7.1 (latest edition),"Safety Standards for Con-
struction and Guide for Selection, Installation and Operation of Adjustable-
Speed Drive Systems"or other applicable standards in your location.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or
equipment damage.

Federal Communications Commission Radio Frequency Interference Statement
- For U.S.A.
FCC Radio Interference Information
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to
Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions, may cause or be subject to interference
with radio communications. To minimize the possibility of electromagnetic
interference in your application, observe the following two rules:
Install and operate the PS-B unit in such a manner that it does not radiate
sufficient electromagnetic energy to cause interference in nearby devices.
Install and test the PS-B unit to ensure that the electromagnetic energy generated
by nearby devices does not interfere with the PS-B unit's operation.
WARNING
ELECTROMAGNETIC / RADIO INTERFERENCE
Electromagnetic radiation may disrupt the PS-B unit's operations, leading to
unintended equipment operation. If electromagnetic interference is detected:
Increase the distance between the PS-B unit and the interfering equipment.
Reorient the PS-B unit and the interfering equipment.
Reroute power and communication lines to the PS-B unit and the interfering
equipment.
Connect the PS-B unit and the interfering equipment to different power supplies.
Always use shielded cables when connecting the PS-B unit to a peripheral
device or another computer.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or
equipment damage.
