2.6 Safety during Operation
WARNING!
Avoiding Short-Circuits
Make sure not to get any objects or liquids inside the unit. Electric shock or short circuit
could result.
Ventilation Slots
Make sure that the ventilation slots are not covered or dusty, as there is a danger of overheating
during operation. Disturbances during operation can result.
Normal Operation
The normal operation and the observance of the EMC limits (electromagnetic compatibility) are only
ensured if the housing cover is properly installed and when the doors are closed (cooling, fire protection,
shielding against electrical, magnetic and electromagnetic fields).
Switch off in fault / service case
By switching off, the devices are not disconnected from the power supply. In the event of a fault or
service case, the devices must be immediately disconnected from all power supplies.
Follow the steps below:
- Switch off the device
- Disconnect all power plugs
- Inform the service
- Devices that are connected via one or more uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) remain operational
even when the UPS power cord is disconnected. Therefore, you must put the UPS out of operation
according to the documentation of the corresponding user documentation.
