Figure 5-4: DC Terminal Types 1 & 2
5.10.3 Output Cable Safety Covers
A plastic safety cover for contact protection is included for the DC terminals. This cover
should always be installed. The cover for type 2 (see picture above) is fixed to the connector
itself. The cover for type 1 attaches to the rear panel of the unit. The cover for type 1 has
several breakouts so that the supply cable exit the cover in different directions.
The connection angle and the required bending radius for the DC cable must be taken into
account when planning the depth of the complete unit + cabling, especially when installing
in a 19” cabinet or similar. For type 2 connectors only a horizontal direction lead can be used
to allow for installation of the safety cover.
Examples of Type 1 terminal connections:

90° up or down

Depth space savings

No bending radius

Horizontal break-out

Height space savings

Bending radius required
