Additional Safety Instructions for DC Power Supply Circuits
To guarantee safe operation of products with DC power supply voltages larger than 60 volts DC or a power consumption
larger than 240 VA, please observe that:
The product is set up, installed and operated in a room or enclosure marked with “RESTRICTED ACCESS”, if there are no
safety messages on product as safety signs and labels on the product itself.
No cables or parts without insulation in electrical circuits with dangerous voltage or power should be touched directly or
indirectly.
A reliable protective earthing connection is provided.
A suitable, easily accessible disconnecting product is used in the application (e.g. overcurrent protective product), if the
product itself is not disconnectable.
A disconnect product, if provided in or as part of the equipment, shall disconnect both poles simultaneously.
Interconnecting power circuits of different products causes no electrical hazards.
A sufficient dimensioning of the power cable wires must be selected
–
according to the maximum electrical specifications on
the product label
–
as stipulated by EN 60950-1 or VDE 0100 or EN 60204 or UL 508 regulations.
The product does not generally fulfil the requirements for "centralized DC power systems" (UL 60950-1, Annex NAB; D2) and
therefore may not be connected to such products!
Special Handling and Unpacking Instruction
ESD Sensitive Device!
Electronic boards and their components are sensitive to static electricity. Therefore, care must be taken
during all handling operations and inspections of this product, in order to ensure product integrity at all
times.
Do not handle this product out of its protective enclosure while it is not used for operational purposes unless it is otherwise
protected.
Whenever possible, unpack or pack this product only at EOS/ESD safe workstations. Where a safe workstation is not guaranteed,
it is important for the user to be electrically discharged before touching the product with his/her hands or tools. This is most
easily done by touching a metal part of your system housing.
It is particularly important to observe standard anti-static precautions when changing piggybacks, ROM devices, SD cards, jumper
settings etc. If the product contains batteries for RTC or memory backup, ensure that the product is not placed on conductive
surfaces, including anti-static plastics or sponges. They can cause short circuits and damage the batteries or conductive circuits on
the product.
