General Safety Information; Protection Against Damage Through Electrostatic Charge - Burkert 3003 Instructions De Service

1.3 General safety information

Observe the conditions of use and permissible data specified in the operating ma-
nual in the chapter „Technical data" and on the model plate of the device, so that the
device will function properly and have a long operating lifetime:
• Always observe the general rules of engineering when carrying out applications
planning and when operating the device.
• Take suitable measures to prevent unintentional operation or inadmissible
damage.
• Installation and maintenance work may only be carried out by specialized
personnel using appropriate tools.
• During operation, observe all applicable accident protection and safety guidelines
for electrical equipment.
• Always switch off the power before opening the system.
• Always connect multiple actuators with phase isolation through a switch.
• Protect electrical actuators with a power supply independent circuit breaker.
• Only operate the device in its original configuration.
• Failure to observe this information and unauthorized access into the device
releases us from all liability and annuls the guarantees applicable to the devices
and accessories.

1.4 Protection against damage through electrostatic charge

CAUTION WHEN
HANDLING!
ELECTROSTATICALLY
SENSITIVE
COMPONENTS /
MODULES
4 - 3003
The device contains electronic components that are react
sensitively to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Contact with
electrostatically charged persons or objects will endanger
these components. In the worst case, they will be
immediately destroyed or will fail after commissioning.
Observe the requirements according to EN 100 015 - 1 in
order to minimise or avoid the possibility of damage through
sudden electrostatic discharge. You should also ensure that
the electronic components do not come into contact with
nearby supply voltages.
