Safety rules

CAUTION! The device must be installed only and exclusively by qualified technical personnel.

CAUTION! The electrical system to which the unit is connected must be equipped with a 10A max automatic bipolar circuit breaker. This circuit breaker must be of the Listed type. The minimum distance between the contacts must be 3mm (0.1in). The circuit breaker must be provided with protection against the fault current towards the ground (differential) and the overcurrent
(magnetothermal).

• The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage caused by an improper use of the appliances mentioned in this manual. Furthermore, the manufacturer reserves the right to modify its contents without any prior notice. The documentation contained in this manual has been collected with great care. The manufacturer, however, cannot take any liability for its use. The same thing can be said for any person or company involved in the creation and production of this manual.
• Before starting any operation, make sure the power supply is disconnected.
• Do not use cables that seem worn or old.
• Never, under any circumstances, make any changes or connections that are not shown in this handbook. Improper use of the appliance can cause serious hazards, risking the safety of personnel and of the installation.
• Use only original spare parts. Non-original spare parts could cause fire, electrical discharge or other hazards.
• Before proceeding with installation, check the supplied material to make sure it corresponds to the order specification by examining the identification labels (4.2 Product markings, page 4).
• This device was designed to be permanently installed on a building or on a suitable structure. The device must be installed permanently before any operation.
• When installing the device, comply with all the national standards.
• Any device which could be installed inside the product must comply with the current safety standards.
• For all connections, use cables that are able to withstand temperatures of at least 75°C (167°F).
• Installation category (also called Overvoltage Category) specifies the level of mains voltage surges that the equipment will be subjected to. The category depends upon the location of the equipment, and on any external surge protection provided. Equipment in an industrial environment, directly connected to major feeders/short branch circuits, is subjected to Installation Category III. If this is the case, a reduction to Installation Category II is required. This can be achieved by use of an insulating transformer with an earthed screen between primary and secondary, or by fitting listed Surge Protective Devices (SPDs) from live to neutral and from neutral to earth. Listed SPDs shall be designed for repeated limiting of transient voltage surges, suitable rated for operating voltage and designated as follows: Type 2 (Permanently connected SPDs intended for installation on the load side of the service equipment overcurrent device); Nominal Discharge Current (In) 20kA min. For example: FERRAZ SHAWMUT, STT2240SPG-CN, STT2BL240SPG-CN rated 120Vac/240Vac, (In=20kA). Maximum distance between installation and reduction is 5m.
• The product must be fastened with suitable equipment. The fastening means must guarantee the mechanical seal when a force equal to at least 4 times the weight of the device is applied.
• Respect the national standards for the connection of the mains and of the earth conductor during installation of the device.
• The product is designed to house only cameras that are properly certified (7W max).
• A disconnecting device, readily and easily accessible, must be incorporated in the electrical system of the building for rapid intervention.
