Important Notice
ELPRO products are designed to be used in industrial environments, by experienced industrial
engineering personnel with adequate knowledge of safety design considerations.
ELPRO radio products are used on unprotected license-free radio bands with radio noise and
interference. The products are designed to operate in the presence of noise and interference,
however in an extreme case, radio noise and interference could cause product operation delays or
operation failure. Like all industrial electronic products, ELPRO products can fail in a variety of
modes due to misuse, age, or malfunction. We recommend that users and designers design
systems using design techniques intended to prevent personal injury or damage during product
operation, and provide failure tolerant systems to prevent personal injury or damage in the event
of product failure. Designers must warn users of the equipment or systems if adequate protection
against failure has not been included in the system design. Designers must include this Important
Notice in operating procedures and system manuals.
These products should not be used in non-industrial applications, or life-support systems, without
consulting ELPRO Technologies first.
1.
A radio license is not required in some countries, provided the module is installed using
the aerial and equipment configuration described in the 805U-E Installation Guide. Check
with your local distributor for further information on regulations.
2.
Operation is authorized by the radio frequency regulatory authority in your country on a
non-protection basis. Although all care is taken in the design of these units, there is no
responsibility taken for sources of external interference. Systems should be designed to be
tolerant of these operational delays.
3.
To avoid the risk of electrocution, the aerial, aerial cable, serial cables and all terminals of
the 805U-E module should be electrically protected. To provide maximum surge and
lightning protection, the module should be connected to a suitable earth and the aerial,
aerial cable, serial cables and the module should be installed as recommended in the
Installation Guide.
4.
To avoid accidents during maintenance or adjustment of remotely controlled equipment,
all equipment should be first disconnected from the 805U-E module during these
adjustments. Equipment should carry clear markings to indicate remote or automatic
operation. E.g. "This equipment is remotely controlled and may start without warning.
Isolate at the switchboard before attempting adjustments."
5.
The 805U-E module is not suitable for use in explosive environments without additional
protection.
