Safety Instructions
●
When working with the CANopen-PN follow the instructions below and read the manual carefully
to protect yourself from injury and the CANopen-PN from damage.
●
Do not open the housing of the CANopen-PN.
●
The permitted operating position is specified as shown (Figure: 47). Other operating positions are
not allowed.
●
Never let liquids get inside the CANopen-PN. Otherwise, electric shocks or short circuits may
result.
●
Protect the CANopen-PN from dust, moisture and steam.
●
Protect the CANopen-PN from shocks and vibrations.
●
The CANopen-PN may become warm during normal use. Always allow adequate ventilation
around the CANopen-PN and use care when handling.
●
Do not operate the CANopen-PN 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 CANopen-PN 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 CANopen-PN 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.
