1. Safety guidelines
•
To prevent injury, take note: by law, minimum 2 persons are required to carry the EC-200 controller.
•
Do not remove covers or panels during normal operation. Removal of the top cover will expose dangerous voltages. To avoid
personal injury, do not remove the top cover. Do not operate the unit without the cover installed.
•
During maintenance operations, always switch off the unit and unplug power cords before removing one of the covers, unless
otherwise stated.
•
Always wear a wrist band which is connected to the ground while handling the ESD sensitive parts.
•
Wear insulating gloves during the execution of the installation and maintenance actions to avoid short-circuit.
•
Be careful never to drop anything into the EC series controller assembly during the procedure. The fall of a tool or a spare part
in the unit could have catastrophic consequences when you will restart the system.
•
Be careful to always follow strict procedures during maintenance operations (spare parts replacement).
•
This product is intended to operate from a power source that will not apply more than 230 volts rms between the supply con-
ductors or between both supply conductor and ground. A protective ground connection by way of grounding conductor in the
power cord is essential for safe operation.
•
This product is grounded through the grounding conductor of the power cord. To avoid electrical shock, plug the power cord
into a properly wired receptacle before connecting to the product input or output terminals. A protective-ground connection by
way of the grounding conductor in the power cord is essential for safe operation.
•
Use only the power cord and connector speci
fi
ed for your product. Use only a power cord that is in good condition. Refer cord
and connector changes to quali
fi
ed service personnel.
•
To avoid
fi
re hazard, use only the fuse having identical type, voltage rating, and current rating characteristics. Refer fuse re-
placement to quali
fi
ed service personnel.
•
Replace spare parts only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.
•
Save the original shipping carton and packing material. They will come in handy if you ever have to ship your equipment. For
maximum protection, repack your set as it was originally packed at the factory.
•
Rated maximum ambient operating temperature, t
a
= 40°C (104°F).
•
To avoid explosion, do not operate this product in an explosive atmosphere.

Environmental Condition Check
Environment condition check
The unit must always be mounted in a manner which ensures both air inlets and outlets are free. For installations in environments
where the device is subject to excessive dust, it is highly advisable to take measures to prevent the dust from reaching the unit. If
this is not a feasible , then the unit should be relocated to a different dust-free location.
It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure at all times that the device is protected from the harmful effects of hostile airborne particles
in the environment of the device. The manufacturer reserves the right to refuse repair if a device has been subject to negligence,
abandon or improper use.
