The instructions are for authorised persons according to the EMC and low
voltage guidelines. The controllers must be installed and commissioned by a
skilled electrician (programmer or service technician).
It must be ensured that the external voltage is generated and supplied ac-
cording to the criteria for safety extra-low voltage (SELV) as this is supplied
without further measures to the connected controller, the sensors, and the
actuators.
The wiring of all signals in connection with the SELV circuit of the unit must
also comply with the SELV criteria (safe extra-low voltage, safe electrical sepa-
ration from other electric circuits).
If the supplied SELV voltage has an external connection to ground (SELV be-
comes PELV) the responsibility lies with the user and the respective national
regulations for installation must be complied with. All statements in these op-
erating instructions refer to the unit the SELV voltage of which is not ground-
ed.
The terminals may only be supplied with the signals indicated in the technical
data or on the unit label and only the approved accessories of ifm electronic
gmbh may be connected.
In case of malfunctions or uncertainties please contact the manufacturer.
Tampering with the unit can lead to considerable risks for the safety of per-
