MST 5

Although the manufacturer has made every effort to
ensure the accuracy of the information contained herein,
this document is subject to change without notice due to
ongoing product development.

WARNING AND PRECAUTIONS

Equipment , probe failure, blown fuses and/or tripped
breakers may prove harmful to the contents of the
building. Therefore it is strongly recommended to install
backup devices and alarm or warning devices. Spare
equipment should also be available at the owner’s site.
Equipment manufactured by the manufacturer is
protected against normal line surges. High surges caused
by thunder storms or power supply equipment may
damage this equipment. For added security against line
voltage surges it is recommended that surge and noise
suppression devices be installed at the electrical
distribution panel. Use of shielded cable for probes is
recommended for protection against lightning. These
devices are available from most electrical supply
distributors.

RECOMMENDATIONS

The manufacturer recommends that all installation
procedures described herein be performed by a qualified
electrician or installation technician. Further more the
manufacturer recommends to test all the functions and
equipment connected to the MST, including the alarm
system and backup devices, after installation, after
change to the installation and once a month after that.

Fuse verification and replacement, as well as the proper
setting of control values shall be the responsibility of the
owner.
