Place and conditions of installation
Always install the Track Supply in a dry and ventilated room. The Track Supply has to be mounted in a
vertical position and attached to a solid wall construction.
The heat loss of the Track Supply is mainly ventilated out of the housing by forced convection cooling. It is
therefore essential to make sure during the mounting that the air flow is not hindered in any way by objects
near the inlet or outlet of the housing.
The ambient temperature should not be lower that 5°C and must not exceed the Conductix-Wampfler
specification of 40°C. The relative air humidity should be below 90% and there must not be any condensation.
Avoid negative influences of the environment.
Operation outside of these conditions can cause changes of the power parameters. (Take notice of the
chapter 6 “Technical data”.)
In case the Track Supply is installed in a cabinet or small room, a sufficient air flow must be ensured. The
temperature inside the cabinet shall not exceed
40°C. Install filters and/or air-conditioning in order to meet the necessary IP protection classification.
The climatic conditions for storage and operation according to the specifications have to be observed - see
chapter 6.3 “Environmental data”.
A distance of 200 mm between the sides of the Track Supply to walls and other cabinets is recommended for maximum
performance, especially if neighboring equipment is also generating heat.

Electrical regulations
The general electrical operating conditions according to VDE 0100 (installation and operation of electrical equipment up to 1000 V)
have to be observed. If necessary observe the local regulations when they go beyond these requirements.
The internal fuses in the Track Supply are for limiting damage within the Track Supply in the event of a component failure.
Appropriate protection should be given to the three-phase supply cable according to local regulations.
