3. Safety Instructions

The instructions on foreseeable misuse and residual risks as well as the special instructions and technical data specified on pages 9 to 12 of these
instructions must be observed under all circumstances to reduce danger to life and limb as much as possible.
Please take note of the standards and regulations applicable to your low-voltage switchgear and control-gear assembly.
For any transport including moving to the installation site and unpacking as well as when completing the interior or any (later) work, take suitable safety
measures, if necessary by additionally fixing it with straps or similar, to secure the product against tipping.
The instructions for accessories must also be observed.
Torque specifications must be adhered to.
To maintain the protection class (IP) specified, all openings in the cabinet must be properly closed using devices of at least the same protection class.
Secure fitted mounting plates, swing frames and other interior fittings for transport (see installation instructions).
The design features include equipotential bonding for the door(s) as well as for the cable gland plates at the bottom and the wall-mounting brackets
(accessories). As an additional equipotential bonding measure adapted to the application, the door(s) and the body are fitted with ground studs.
Ensure that the ambient temperatures at the installation site do not fall below -25 °C or exceed +40 °C, that there is no coarse dirt and excessive moisture
and that the product is mounted horizontally to the wall by means of wall-mounting brackets (accessories) and suitable mounting hardware (dowels etc.).
Make sure that the doors are fully closed (see installation instructions).
The maximum static loads as specified on page 11 must not be exceeded.
Note: Enclosures in stainless steel design are suitable for outdoor installation if pressure compensation is assured (to be provided by customer) and water
is prevented from accumulating at the seals.

4. Foreseeable Misuse, Residual Risks

Foreseeable misuse:
• The load is not secured against falling, tipping over when moved (transport, set-up).
• More people than necessary are present in the danger zone during transport and movement to the installation site.
• The installation site is polluted. Operating conditions and usage do not comply with the intended use.
• No alignment, wrong selection of mounting hardware, use of inappropriate tools.
• Insufficient qualification of staff.
• Visual inspections and functional tests are not carried out.
• No cleaning is effected.
• Spare parts other than original parts are used.
The residual risks remaining after a risk analysis may be as follows:
• Crushing or impacts from tipping or falling objects,
• Cutting at sharp edges,
• Slipping, falling on dirty, wet, slippery floors and
• Electric shock.
These residual risks can be avoided by working attentively and implementing protective measures as provided by the operator.

5. Instructions for Transport

The product must be transported in an upright position – preferably on a pallet. When transported individually without interior fittings (with the exception
of the mounting plate at the rear plate) and with no load on the door, the enclosure can also be moved lying flat on the back. During transport, the product
must be suitably secured against tipping over – attention must be paid to load distribution, center of gravity.
In curves, enclosures must be moved slowly, irrespective of the means of transport. A tip-over hazard exists for tall or top-heavy enclosures.
Use straps or transport belts so as to avoid point loads on the doors. There is the danger of damaging the PU seals.
Pay attention to a clean working environment to avoid slipping and / or falling.
Use appropriate protective equipment (e.g. gloves, safety shoes).
If bases are mounted underneath the enclosures (accessories), they must always be transported or lifted on a pallet.
Secure fitted mounting plates through additional measures, if necessary.
Secure the locks of swing frames.
