2. Do not place the product on surfaces, vehicles, cabinets or tables that for
reasons of weight or stability are unsuitable for this purpose. Always follow the
manufacturer's installation instructions when installing the product and
fastening it to objects or structures (e.g. walls and shelves). An installation that
is not carried out as described in the product documentation could result in
personal injury or even death.
3. Do not place the product on heat-generating devices such as radiators or fan
heaters. The ambient temperature must not exceed the maximum temperature
specified in the product documentation or in the data sheet. Product
overheating can cause electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury or
even death.
Electrical safety
If the information on electrical safety is not observed either at all or to the extent
necessary, electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury or death may occur.
1. Prior to switching on the product, always ensure that the nominal voltage
setting on the product matches the nominal voltage of the AC supply network.
If a different voltage is to be set, the power fuse of the product may have to be
changed accordingly.
2. In the case of products of safety class I with movable power cord and
connector, operation is permitted only on sockets with a protective conductor
contact and protective conductor.
3. Intentionally breaking the protective conductor either in the feed line or in the
product itself is not permitted. Doing so can result in the danger of an electric
shock from the product. If extension cords or connector strips are
implemented, they must be checked on a regular basis to ensure that they are
safe to use.
4. If there is no power switch for disconnecting the product from the AC supply
network, or if the power switch is not suitable for this purpose, use the plug of
the connecting cable to disconnect the product from the AC supply network. In
such cases, always ensure that the power plug is easily reachable and
accessible at all times. For example, if the power plug is the disconnecting
device, the length of the connecting cable must not exceed 3 m. Functional or
electronic switches are not suitable for providing disconnection from the AC
supply network. If products without power switches are integrated into racks or
systems, the disconnecting device must be provided at the system level.
