Safety instructions
General safety regulations
!
Attention! Mounting, installation, commissioning and repair of electronic devices have
to be carried out only by qualified electricians. Thus, the current standards for the in-
stallation of door communication systems must be observed.
When working in systems with 230 V mains voltage, the safety regulations according to
DIN VDE 0100 must be observed.
When installing TCS:BUS
®
systems, the general safety regulations for telecommunication
systems according to VDE 0800 must be observed. Inter alia:
separated cabling of heavy and low current lines,
minimum distance of 10 cm for common cabling,
use of separators between heavy and low current lines in shared cable ducts,
use of standard telecommunication lines, e.g. J-Y (St) Y with 0.8 mm diameter,
existing lines (modernisation) with deviating cross sections can be used in compliance
with the loop resistance.
Installation
– protective measures
!
With suitable requirements to protect against lightning, it has to be ensured that a volt-
age of each 32 V DC is not to be exceeded at the connections a, b, P, R, S, V1, V2.
All front-door stations and modules are permitted for safety extra low voltage (SELV)
and protective extra low voltage (PELV) only.
Intended use
Front-door stations of the series AMI can be assembled individually with functional mod-
ules. The modules have to be used in combincation with a flush-mount kit (ZAU200x) or a
communication post (K3xxxx).
Other forms of installation must meet protection class IP44 at least.
Flush-mount kit
Modular front-door stations of the series AMI are front panels with flush-mount box.
Communication posts
The communication posts are stand-alone front-door stations constructed as posts.
The posts are suitable for a vertical installation outdoors and need to be installed on even,
massive ground (e.g. concrete)
Possible hazards when using the device
The operating elements of the modules in the front-door stations can get very hot when
placed in direct solar radiation (more than +50 °C). If possible, avoid direct solar radiation
when selecting the mounting site.
