WARNING
Danger due to lightning strikes
Installing this lightning protector between an antenna and a SCALANCE W700 is not
adequate protection against a lightning strike. The LP798-1N lightening protector only
works within the framework of a comprehensive lightning protection concept. If you
have questions, ask a qualified specialist company.
Note
The requirements of EN61000-4-5, surge immunity tests on power supply lines, are met
only when a Blitzductor is used with 24 VDC:

Supply voltage
WARNING
Safety extra low voltage
The equipment is designed for operation with Safety Extra-Low Voltage (SELV) by a
Limited Power Source (LPS).
This means that only SELV / LPS (Limited Power Source) complying with IEC 60950-1 /
EN 60950-1 / VDE 0805-1 must be connected to the power supply terminals or the
power supply unit for the equipment power supply must comply with NEC Class 2, as
described by the National Electrical Code (r) (ANSI / NFPA 70).
If the equipment is connected to a redundant power supply (two separate power
supplies), both must meet these requirements.
WARNING
Transient overvoltages
Take measures to prevent transient voltage surges of more than 40% of the rated
voltage. This is the case if you only operate devices with SELV (safety extra-low
voltage).
