Working at the CMC-TC
The generally applicable electrical regulations of the country in which the unit is
installed and operated must be observed, just as the existing national regulations
for the prevention of accidents and any internal rules (work, operating, safety
regulations) issued by the operator. Prior to working at the unit this must be
disconnected from the supply and secured against being switched on again.
Original accessories and accessories authorized by the manufacturer ensure
safety. The use of other parts may make void the liability for consequences
resulting from this. Repair work at the unit may be done only by RITTAL or by
authorized personnel.
Operating reliability
The operating reliability of the unit supplied is only warranted in case of use as
intended and according to the rules. The limit values quoted in the technical data
(see Appendix
B Technical data
) must not be exceeded under any
circumstances. This applies particularly to the allowed ambient temperature range
and the allowed IP protection category. For applications with a higher specified IP
protection category the Rittal CMC-TC must be installed in an enclosure of a
higher IP protection category, complying with the specified protection category.
Operation of the CMC-TC system in direct contact with water, aggressive media,
or inflammable gases and fumes is prohibited.
