Safety Precautions
This section provides full information on safe installation of this equipment.

Personnel undertaking installation, commissioning or servicing work, should be

familiar with this relay operation/working procedure and all input/output ratings.

The equipment documentation should be consulted before installation,

commissioning, or servicing the equipment. Failure to observe warning notice,
incorrect/improper use may endanger personnel or equipment cause injury or
physical damage.

Terminals exposed during installation, commissioning and maintenance may

present a hazardous voltage unless the equipment is electrically isolated.

Any disassembly of the equipment may expose parts at hazardous voltage, also
electronic parts may be damaged if suitable electrostatic voltage discharge
(ESD) precautions are not taken.

Voltage and current connections should be made using insulated crimp

terminations to ensure that terminal block insulation requirements are
maintained.

While in operation, if sensor output wires are not terminated at indication unit
during servicing/maintenance work care should be taken to short output wires of
each sensor.

Disposal
The disposal of our products and possible recycling of their components after
decommissioning has to be carried out by an accredited recycling company
or the products/components must be taken to applicable collection points.
Such disposal activities must comply with all local laws, guidelines and
environmental specifications of the country in which the disposal is done.

Our products and batteries must not be disposed of as household waste. For disposing
batteries it is necessary to observe the local national/international directives.

According to national legislation, penalties may be charged for incorrect disposal

of such waste.

By disposing of these products correctly you will help to save valuable resources and
prevent any potential negative effects on human health and the environment.
