● When working with CPCI-CAN/400-4 follow the instructions below and read the manual carefully to protect yourself
from injury and the CPCI-CAN/400-4 from damage.
● The device is a built-in component. It is essential to ensure that the device is mounted in a way that cannot lead to
endangering or injury of persons or damage to objects.
● The device has to be securely installed in the control cabinet before commissioning.
● Protect the CPCI-CAN/400-4 from dust, moisture and steam.
● Protect the CPCI-CAN/400-4 from shocks and vibrations.
● The CPCI-CAN/400-4 may become warm during normal use. Always allow adequate ventilation around the CPCI-
CAN/400-4 and use care when handling.
● Do not operate the CPCI-CAN/400-4 adjacent to heat sources and do not expose it to unnecessary thermal radiation.
Ensure an ambient temperature as specified in the technical data.
● Do not use damaged or defective cables to connect the CPCI-CAN/400-4 and follow the CAN wiring hints in chapter:
"Correctly Wiring Electrically Isolated CAN Networks".
● In case of damages to the device, which might affect safety, appropriate and immediate measures must be taken, that
exclude an endangerment of persons and domestic animals and property.
● Current circuits which are connected to the device have to be sufficiently protected against hazardous voltage (SELV
according to EN 60950-1).
● The CPCI-CAN/400-4 may only be driven by power supply current circuits, that are contact protected.
A power supply, that provides a safety extra-low voltage (SELV or PELV) according to EN 60950-1, complies with this
conditions.
Attention !
Electrostatic discharges may cause damage to electronic components.
To avoid this, please perform the steps described on page 8
before
you touch the CPCI-
CAN/400-4, in order to discharge the static electricity from your body.
