Use of the mounting and wiring instructions
Target group: authorised and qualified staff.
All actions described in these instructions may only be performed by
qualified persons who have been trained and authorised by the
operating company.
1. Read and understand these mounting and wiring instructions.
2. Comply with the valid occupational safety and accident prevention
regulations.
3. Install and operate the device.
Selection and installation of devices and their integration in control
systems demand qualified knowledge of all the relevant laws, as well
as the normative requirements of the machine manufacturer.
In case of doubt, the German language version of these instructions
shall prevail.
Scope of delivery
1 device, 1 battery, 1 mounting and wiring instructions, carton.
Intended use
The device of type SW868 is intended for use in the European Union.
It complies with the European Union Directive 2014/53/EU (RED) for
radio equipment.
The device of type SW915 is intended for use in Canada, USA, and
Mexico. It complies with the requirements of FCC Rules and IC Rules,
RSS-210. It has an approval number for the Mexican states.
The one-channel wireless switch is used to switch electrical loads via
radio transmission. The transmission is carried out at a frequency of
868.3 MHz (Europe) or 915.0 MHz (USA, Canada, Mexico). The receiver
must support the protocol of the sWave ® wireless technology.
Mounting and wiring
Mount the device on an even surface. Do not use the device as a me-
chanical endstop. Install the device according to the mounting and wir-
ing instructions of the receiver. The wireless range depends heavily on
the local conditions. Conductive materials may strongly affect the radio
signal. This also includes thin foils, e.g. aluminium laminations on
insulation materials.
Design of wireless range
Because radio signals are electromagnetic waves, the signal is atten-
uated on its way from the transmitter to the receiver. This means the
electrical as well as the magnetic field strengths decrease inversely
proportionally to the squared distance of transmitter and receiver
(E,H~1/r²). In addition to this natural restriction of the wireless range
further interference factors occur: metal parts, e.g. armours in walls,
metal foils of thermal insulations or vapour deposited metal layer heat
protection glass reflect electromagnetic waves. Therefore, a so-called
deadspot can be found behind them. Radio waves are able to penetrate
walls but the attenuation increases even more than in the free field.
Penetration of radio waves:
wood, gypsum, glas uncoated
brick stone, press boards
armoured concrete
metal, aluminium lamination, water
Typical wireless ranges are:
Line of sight in free field:
Line of sight indoors:
N.B.
The transmission of a switching command from the transmitter to
the receiver takes about 80 to 100 ms, based on the steute Wireless
data transmission. The switching signal of a transmitter must not be
generated in a shorter time interval. Otherwise this signal will be sup-
pressed. Reconstruction and alterations to the device are not allowed.
Subject to technical modifications. steute does not assume any liability
for recommendations made or implied by this description. New claims
for guarantee, warranty or liability cannot be derived from this docu-
ment beyond the general terms and conditions of delivery.
Maintenance
With rough conditions, we recommend routine maintenanceas follows:
1. Check actuator for easy operation.
2. Removal of all dirt particles.
Cleaning
- In case of damp cleaning: use water or mild, non-scratching,
non-chafing cleaners.
- Do not use aggressive cleaners or solvents
Clean enclosure on the outside only. Clean enclosure with household
cleaning agents. Do not use any compressed air to clean.
Disposal
- Observe national, local and legal regulations concerning disposal.
- Recycle each material separately. Dispose of possibly contained
batteries correctly.
