Prior to connection and start-up, check the power supply voltage. Compare the values to the specified
data located on the unit’s type plate (left unit side, bottom right-hand, see chap. 1.4).
When connecting, please observe the regulations specified by the local electricity supply company and
as well as the VDE directives (for Germany). We recommend the use of a residual current circuit breaker.

CAUTION
Danger of incorrect power supply voltage.
Damage to the equipment.
Check the power supply voltage before connection and start-up.
Compare the power supply voltage with the data indicated on the type plate.
See also electrical data (chap. 19.4).
To completely separate the unit from the power supply, you must disconnect the power plug.
Install the unit in a way that the power plug is easily accessible and can be easily pulled in
case of danger.
Remark when operating with a power frequency of 60 Hz:
WARNING
High leakage current.
Electrical hazard.
Earth connection essential before connecting supply. Check socket before inserting
plug.
When connected to a power supply 1N~ with a frequency of 60 Hz, a leakage current of more than 3.5
mAmp is possible. If grounding through the power cable is insufficient or missing, the leakage current
may flow through the user’s body. Correct installation of the professional grade power socket provided by
the user safely avoids this. Before connecting the unit to the socket, please check its grounding contact
type plug for appropriate construction and if it is undamaged.
