Connecting the control panel

CAUTION

Risk of electric shock

Dangerous touch voltages can lead to electric shock. To avoid electric shock, observe the following:

  • Never connect or disconnect the device cables during a thunderstorm.
  • Provide protective earthing for handling the device.

To make the device ready for operation, you have to connect it. The first step is to ground the device. Then you can connect the cables and the power supply.

An external power supply providing 24 V DC from an isolated source is required. This must be protected by a fuse in accordance with UL 248 with a maximum nominal value of 4 A. A nominal voltage of at least 22 V must be applied to the power supply plug of the device at all times.

The cabling of the device in the control cabinet must be done in accordance with the standard EN 60204-1:2006 PELV = Protective Extra Low Voltage:

Peripheral devices connected to the device with their own power supply must have the same potential for the PE and "0 V" conductors (no potential difference).
