1.6. Use as prescribed
This is a modular automation system based on the CANbus, intended for industrial control applications
within the medium to high performance range.
The automation system is designed for use within Overvoltage Category I (IEC 364-4-443) for the controlling
and regulating of machinery and industrial processes in low-voltage installations in accordance with the fol-
lowing general parameters:
maximum rated supply voltage of 1,000 VAC (50/60 Hz) or 1,500 VDC;
for use in maximum category 2 pollution environment (EN 60950);
for use up to a maximum altitude of 2,000 m above msn;
for indoor use only in areas not exposed to direct UV radiation;
max. ambient temperature inside and outside the control cabinet is within the technical specifications
(see section “Technical data”)
Qualified project planning and design, proper transport, storage, installation, use and careful maintenance
are essential to the flawless and safe operation of the automation system.
The automation system may only be used within the scope of the data and applications specified in the
present documentation and associated user manuals.
The automation system is to be used only as follows:
as prescribed
in technically flawless condition
without arbitrary or unauthorized changes
exclusively by qualified users
The regulations of the German professional and trade associations, the German technical supervisory board
(TÜV), the VDE (Association of German electricians) or other corresponding national bodies are to be ob-
served.
Safety-oriented (fail-safe) systems
Particular measures are required in connection with the use of SPC in safety-oriented systems. If an SPC is to
be used in a safety-oriented system, the user ought to seek the full advice of the SPC manufacturer in
addition to observing any standards or guidelines on safety installations which may be available.
WARNING
As with any electronic control system, the failure of particular compo-
nents may result in uncontrolled and/or unpredictable operation.
All types of failure and the associated fuse systems are to be taken into ac-
count at system level. The advice of the SPC manufacturer should be sought if
necessary.
