Mounting and Commissioning
This chapter is intended for experienced commissioning staff. They must be familiar with
the commissioning of protection and control systems, with the management of power
systems and with the relevant safety rules and standards. Hardware modifications that
might be needed in certain cases are explained. For primary tests, the connected protection
unit must be switched on.
General
Warning of improper transport, storage, installation or erection of the
device
Failure to observe these precautions can result in death, personal injury, or
serious material damage.
Problem-free and safe use of this device depends on proper transport,
storage, installation and erection of the device taking into account the
warnings and instructions in this manual.
In particular, the general installation and safety regulations for work in power
current equipment (e.g. ANSI, IEC, EN, DIN, or other national and
international regulations) must be observed.
Mounting Instructions
Devices for DIN rail mounting are only permitted for operation in enclosed housings or
cubicles, or must only be installed in locations that are accessible only to qualified
personnel.
The DIN rail housing is intended for mounting on a symmetrical mounting rail acc. to
EN 60715.
For mounting, the device is swung downwards onto the DIN rail, pressed downwards, and
snapped on by pressing backwards. The connection is released by lifting the locking
element on the underside of the device using a flat screwdriver to loosen it from the
mounting rail. The device can then be lifted off the DIN rail in the opposite direction to the
snap-on movement.
The data lines for electrical interfaces, e.g. RS232 or RS485, must be routed in screened,
earthed cables.
The FO cables must comply with the connection standard of the device (technical data).
The mounting location must be as free from vibration as possible. The permissible ambient
temperature (working and function temperature) must be observed (see Technical Data).
Operation outside the function temperature range or in environments with increased air
pollution can cause malfunctions, failure, and destruction of the device (note the IP class of
the device).
