2 Safety Instructions
This chapter contains important safety information. Please read the following paragraphs
carefully.
2.1 General Safety Instructions
HV DTemp measurement systems are designed and manufactured to comply with the relevant
safety standards. Nevertheless the risk to the life of users and of property damage cannot be
excluded. Especially when work on HV-battery systems is carried out, there is a considerable
potential for danger. This also applies to the assembly and installation of controllers and
sensors of an HV DTemp measurement system in HV batteries.
WARNING!
HV DTemp measurement systems are used in high-voltage applications.
Working under voltage (e.g. when handling HV batteries) carries the risk
of life-threatening electrical shocks.
Make sure that work is only carried out by qualified and trained
electricians (DIN VDE 1000-10).
Observe safety instructions.
WARNING!
HV DTemp-P central units are applied in high-voltage applications.
Improper use can be life-threatening due to high voltage.
Make sure that this work is only carried out by qualified and trained
personnel.
Observe safety instructions.
WARNING!
Connecting CAN bus measurement modules to an existing CAN bus system
may affect the CAN bus behavior.
Improper handling of a CAN bus system may endanger life or cause
damage to property.
Always connect CAN bus measurement modules to a separate CAN
bus system (measurement bus).
Make sure that this work is only carried out by qualified and trained
personnel.
CAUTION!
The surface of the module may become very hot when ope-
rated in specific environments (e. g. engine compartment).
Touching the surface can cause serious burns.
Let the device cool down before handling.
Wear appropriate safety gloves, if required.
