6.2 Safety test
NOTE
High-voltage test
The integrated EMC filter contains Y capacitors. Therefore, the
trigger current is exceeded when AC testing voltage is applied.
→ Test the device with DC voltage when you carry out the
high-voltage test required by law. The voltage to be used
corresponds to the peak value of the AC voltage required by
the standard.

●
Aluminium
●
Non-ferrous metal, e.g. motor windings
●
Plastics, particularly with brominated flame retardants, in accordance
with marking
●
Insulating materials
●
Cables and wires
●
Electronic scrap, e.g. circuit boards
