Danger
This symbol indicates the presence of dangerous voltage within and outside the product enclosure that may constitute a risk of electric shock, serious injury or death to persons if proper precautions are not followed.
Caution
This symbol alerts the user to the presence of hazards that may cause minor or moderate injury to persons, damage to property or damage to the device itself, if proper precautions are not followed.
Note
This symbol directs the users attention to important installation, operating and maintenance instructions.
Installation Considerations
Installation and maintenance of the PowerLogic ION7550 / ION7650 meter should only be performed by qualified, competent personnel that have appropriate training and experience with high voltage and current devices. The meter must be installed in accordance with all local and national electrical codes.
DANGER
Failure to observe the following instructions will result in severe injury or death. During normal operation of the ION7550 / ION7650 meter, hazardous voltages are present on its ter-
minal strips, and throughout the connected potential transformer (PT), current transformer (CT), digital (status) input, control power and external I/O circuits. PT and CT secondary circuits are capable of generating lethal voltages and currents with their primary circuit energized. Follow standard safety precautions while performing any installation or service work (i.e. removing PT fuses, shorting CT secondaries, etc.). The terminal strips on the meter base should not be user-accessible after installation. The ION7550 / ION7650 meter is designed to be used as a permanently installed device. All electrical connections to the meter must be installed with a permanent connection method (screw-type mechanical connection). The ION7550 / ION7650 meter chassis ground must be permanently connected to the switchgear earth ground. Do not use digital output devices for primary protection functions. These include applications where the devices perform energy limiting functions or provide protection of people from injury. Do not use the ION7550 / ION7650 in situations where failure of the devices can cause injury or death, or cause sufficient energy to be released that can start a fire. The meter can be used for secondary protection functions. Do not HIPOT/Dielectric test the digital (status) inputs, digital outputs, or communications terminals. Refer to the label on the ION7550 / ION7650 meter for the maximum voltage level the device can withstand.
CAUTION
Observe the following instructions, or permanent damage to the meter may occur. The ION7550 / ION7650 meter offers a range of hardware options that affect input ratings. The
ION7550 / ION7650 meters serial number label lists all equipped options. Applying current levels incompatible with the current inputs will permanently damage the meter. This document provides installation instructions applicable to each hardware option. The ION7550 / ION7650 meters chassis ground must be permanently connected to the switchgear earth ground for the noise and surge protection circuitry to function correctly. Failure to do so will void the warranty. Terminal screw torque: Barrier-type (current, voltage, and relay terminal screws: 1.35 Nm (1.00 ft-lbf) max. Captured-wire type (digital inputs/outputs, communications, power supply: 0.90 Nm (0.66 ft.lbf) max.
FCC Notice
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense. The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for the ION7550 / ION7650 optional internal modem is 0.6. Connection to the ION7550 / ION7650 internal modem should be made via an FCC Part 68 compliant telephone cord (not supplied). The ION7550 / ION7650 cannot be used on a public coin phone service or party line services.
