Electrical safety / EMC compatibility
WHEEL ELECTRONIC (abbreviated "WE" in the following) is a so-called OEM product (OEM
original equipment manufacturer) that cannot be used independently but has to be combined
with additional electrical or electronical equipment to become a working device (e.g.
potentiometers, switches, power supply, case/housing). The manufacturer of WE does not know
the final assembly of the complete device in which the WE is used as a part of the complete
device. The final responsibility with regard to electrical safety and electromagnetic
compatibility is up to the user who is assembling the complete device.
Electronic basic knowledge is required to install WE and to connect the controls resp.
control voltages. If you are not sure whether your knowledge is sufficient please consult an
expert. We cannot take back modules that became defective because of wrong installation or
wrong connection of the controls or voltages.
Please pay attention to the following items:
The power supply used in combination with the WE has to be a closed type (in Germany a
power supply with VDE approval is required). Normally an AC adapter with plastic case is used.
It is not allowed to use open power supplies whith open mains voltage access (e.g. via mains
lead, pcb tracks, electronic parts).
On the WE preventing measures against electromagnetic radiation are taken (e.g. an RF
filter at the power supply input). But it is impossible to estimate to what extend the components
added by the user affect the EMC properties of the complete assembly. Therefore the
complete device has to be shielded against electromagnetic radiation (incoming and
outgoing). These demands are normally met by a closed metal case that covers the complete
assembly. The metal case should be connected to GND of the WE.
