Safety instructions for supply voltage
D
Only switch on the device when the housing is
closed.
z
Warning!
The devices may only be connected to the supply
voltage shown on the type plate.
The devices are designed for operation with safety
extra-low voltage. Accordingly, only PELV circuits
or SELV circuits with voltage restrictions in line
with IEC/EN 60950 may be connected to the supp ly
voltage connections and the signal contact.
D
If you are operating the repeater with an external
voltage: Only supply the system with a low safety
voltage in compliance with IEC/EN 60950.
Relevant for North America:
D
The device may only be connected to a supply
volt age of class 2 that fulfils 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 fulfil
the requirements of the National Electrical Code,
Table 11(b).
D
Use 90 or 90°C copper(CU) wire only.
