2.7 Installation/assembly
Ensure that the product is installed and cooled according to the regulations in the doc-
umentation.
Protect the product from strong mechanical strain. The product and its mounting parts
must never protrude into the path of persons or vehicles. Ensure that components are
not deformed and insulation spaces are not changed, particularly during transportation
and handling. Electric components must not be mechanically damaged or destroyed.
Observe the notes in chapter Mechanical installation in the documentation.
2.7.1 Restrictions of use
The following applications are prohibited unless the device is explicitly designed for
such use:
• Use in potentially explosive atmospheres
• Use in areas exposed to harmful oils, acids, gases, vapors, dust, and radiation
• Operation in applications with impermissibly high mechanical vibration and shock
loads in excess of the regulations stipulated in EN 61800-5-1
• Use at an elevation of more than 3800 m above sea level
The product can be used at altitudes above 1000 m above sea level up to 3800 m
above sea level under the following conditions:
• The reduction of the nominal output current and/or the line voltage is considered
according to the data in chapter Technical data in the documentation.
• Above 2000 m above sea level, the air and creeping distances are only sufficient
for overvoltage class II according to EN 60664. At altitudes above 2000 m above
sea level limiting measures must be taken, which reduce the line side overvoltage
from category III to category II for the entire system.
• If a protective electrical separation (in accordance with EN 61800‑5‑1 and
EN 60204‑1) is required, then implement this outside the product at altitudes of
more than 2000 m above sea level.
2.8 Protective separation
The product meets all requirements for protective separation of power and electronics
connections in accordance with EN 61800-5-1. To ensure protective separation, all
connected circuits must also meet the requirements for protective separation.
2.9 Electrical installation
Ensure that all of the required covers are correctly attached after carrying out the elec-
trical installation.
Make sure that preventive measures and protection devices comply with the applic-
able regulations (e.g. EN 60204-1 or EN 61800-5-1).
