4.7 Additional safety instructions
General requirements for safe operation of the devices:
•
Do not lay cables over hot surfaces.
– Hot surfaces are identified with a corresponding warning symbol.
•
Maximum permissible current loads for connector cables and devices must not be exceeded.
– Always compare the current ratings of the device, the cable and the fuse to ensure that they match.
– If they do not match, use a separate upstream fuse in order to provide appropriate overcurrent
protection.
•
Devices with a grounding terminal must always be grounded.
– If a ground terminal (green-yellow laboratory socket) is available, it must always be
connected to protective ground. The protective grounding must always be connected first (before
voltage) and disconnected last (after disconnecting the voltage).
•
The device is not equipped with a built-in circuit unless otherwise specified in the technical data.
