You must read this manual 

before 

installation, use or work on the product. 

 

This product contains dangerous voltage that when touched can cause electric shock, burns or 
death.

 

 
The product must be installed by qualified personnel and according to the installation instructions. 
Service may only be performed by authorised service personnel. The equipment may only be 
opened by qualified personnel. Work in addition to replacing the rectifier modules may only be 
carried out when all power has been cut to the equipment and when the mains breaker has been 
closed for at least five minutes. The protective covers and contact safety devices inside the 
equipment may only be removed by authorised service personnel. 

The power must always be disconnected 

in a safe way before starting any service/maintenance. 

 

WARNING! Multiple power sources. Dangerous voltage is possible even with mains power shut 
off. The panel mains power switch does not give a dead condition.
