Safety instructions
Certified usage
Only use the device for application cases that are described in the
Hirschmann product information, including this manual. Only operate the
device according to the technical specifications.
Operational environment:
In the inside of vehicles
In the inside of buildings
Supply voltage
For safety reasons the devices have been designed to operate at low
voltages. Thus, they may only be connected to the supply voltage
connections and to the signal contact with SELV circuits with the voltage
restrictions in accordance with IEC/EN 60950-1.
The supply voltage is electrically isolated from the housing.
Use undamaged parts.
Only use voltage supply cables with the permitted diameter specified
by the manufacturer of the right angled cable socket.
Relevant for North America:
Devices without Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) may only be connected to
a supply voltage of class 2 that fulfills the requirements of the National
Electrical Code, Table 11(b). If the voltage is being supplied
redundantly (two different voltage sources), the combined supply
voltages must fulfill the requirements of the National Electrical Code,
Table 11(b).
Relevant for North America: For use in Class 2 circuits.
Only use copper wire/conductors of class 1, 75 °C (167 °F).
Relevant for North America
for devices certified for hazardous locations:
Power, input and output (I/O) wiring must be in accordance with
Class I, Division 2 wiring methods [Article 501-4(b) of the National
Electrical Code, NFPA 70] and in accordance with the authority having
jurisdiction.
Shielding ground
Note:
The shielding ground of the connectable twisted pair lines is
connected to the housing as a conductor.
Beware of possible short circuits when connecting a cable section with
conductive shielding braiding.
