Safety Instructions
●
When working with the XMC-CPU/Zulu follow the instructions below and read the manual
carefully to protect yourself from injury and the XMC-CPU/Zulu from damage.
●
The device is a built-in component. It is essential to ensure that the device is mounted in a way
that cannot lead to endangering or injury of persons or damage to objects.
●
Do not use damaged or defective cables to connect the XMC-CPU/Zulu and follow the CAN
wiring hints in chapter: "Correct Wiring of Electrically Isolated CAN Networks".
●
In case of damages to the device, which might affect safety, appropriate and immediate
measures must be taken, that exclude an endangerment of persons and domestic animals and
property.
●
Current circuits which are connected to the device have to be sufficiently protected against
hazardous voltage (SELV according to EN 60950-1).
●
The XMC-CPU/Zulu may only be driven by power supply current circuits, that are contact
protected. A power supply, that provides a safety extra-low voltage (SELV) according to EN
60950-1, complies with these conditions.
●
The device has to be securely installed in the control cabinet before commissioning.
●
Protect the XMC-CPU/Zulu from dust, moisture and steam.
●
Protect the XMC-CPU/Zulu from shocks and vibrations.
●
The XMC-CPU/Zulu may become warm during normal use. Always allow adequate ventilation
around the XMC-CPU/Zulu and use care when handling.
●
Do not operate the XMC-CPU/Zulu adjacent to heat sources and do not expose it to unnecessary
thermal radiation. Ensure an ambient temperature as specified in the technical data.
DANGER
Hazardous Voltage - Risk of electric shock due to unintentional contact with uninsulated
live parts with high voltages inside of the system into which the XMC-CPU/Zulu is to be
integrated.

→
All current circuits which are connected to the device have to be sufficiently
protected against hazardous voltage (SELV according to EN 60950-1) before you
start with the installation.
Ensure the absence of voltage before starting any electrical work
NOTICE
Electrostatic discharges may cause damage to electronic components.
To avoid this, perform the steps described on page 19 before you touch the XMC-
CPU/Zulu, in order to discharge the static electricity from your body

→
To avoid this, discharge the static electricity from your body before you touch the
XMC-CPU/Zulu.
Furthermore, you should prevent your clothes from touching the XMC-CPU/Zulu,
because your clothes might be electrostatically charged as well.
