2. Safety instructions
2.1. Intended use
Changeover devices are used everywhere there is dependence on high availability from the power supply.
The ATICS® transfer switching device is intended for the application described in the chapter "System
description". When the preferred supply fails, the ATICS® automatically switches to the second supply.
Areas of application:
Group 1 and 2 medical locations according to DIN VDE 0100-710 and IEC 60364-7-710
Hospital main distribution boards (DIN VDE 0100-710)
Locations open to the public (DIN VDE 0100-718)
Emergency power supplies
Heating, air conditioning, ventilation, cooling
EDP, computer centres
Fire extinguisher and sprinkler systems
Several versions of the ATICS® are available. They differ for example by changing over from the two or
four-pole systems or by the load current (see chapter "ATICS® tasks" on page 15). Please heed the limits
of the area of application indicated in the technical specifications. Use which deviates from or is beyond the
scope of these technical specifications is considered non-compliant.
In order to meet the requirements of applicable standards, customised parameter settings must be made
on the equipment in order to adapt it to local equipment and operating conditions.
Intended use includes following all the instructions in the operating manual and complying with the test
intervals.
2.2. Skilled persons
Only appropriately qualified personnel may work on Bender devices. Persons who are familiar with the
assembly, commissioning and operation of the equipment and have undergone appropriate training are
considered skilled persons. Such persons must have read this manual and understood all instructions
relating to safety.
2.3. Device-specific safety instruction
Failure to adjust the settings may result in malfunction.
The settings must be changed in order to adapt the ATICS® transfer switching device to the
existing equipment. When doing so, follow the instructions in chapter "5. Commissioning,
settings and testing“.
Functional safety according to IEC 61508 can only be guaranteed when used properly.
Please follow the instructions given in this operating manual and in the check list.
In particular note the information on the pages: 12, 13, 14, 20, 52 and 76 in the technical
operating manual TGH1443 of the ATICS® device.
