	Further notes on installation requirements This device contains no parts that require maintenance. If an internal fuse trips, this is due to an internal defect. If any damage or malfunction occurs during installation or operation, turn off the power immediately and return the device to the factory for inspection. Mount the device on a DIN rail so that the input terminals are at the bottom of the device. For other mounting positions, please refer to the load reduction requirements in this document. See chapter Installation positions. This device is designed for convection cooling and does not require an external fan. Do not obstruct the air circulation. No more than 15% of the ventilation grille may be covered (e.g. by cable ducts)! Maintain the following installation distances: 40 mm at the top, 20 mm at the bottom and 5 mm on the left and right are recommended if the device continuously runs at more than 50% of the rated output. Increase this distance to 15 mm if the adjacent device is a heat source (e.g. another power supply unit).
