ES4440.2 Compact Failure Simulation Module - User’s Guide8
Introduction ETAS
1.2 General Instructions on Operating the ES4440.2
Please note the following when operating the device:
Transport/Installation
The ES4440.2 Compact Failure Simulation Module weighs 14 kg. Only lift or
carry the housing with two people.
Power Supply Cord
The respective requirements for the power supply cord, which vary according to
regional differences in the power supply, and the ETAS order number can be
found in the user manual. To avoid injuries and damage to hardware, please only
use the power supply cord specified here.
Use only primary power cables in accordance with IEC 60320 with a C13 plug at
one end and a non-locking plug approved according to national safety standards
at the other end. Plug and cable must be rated for at least 250 VAC/10 A or
125 VAC/15 A.
Insulation requirements for lab power supplies to circuits connected to the HIL
system:
• The power supply to connected circuitry must be safely separated from
the supply voltage. For example, use a car battery or a suitable lab power
supply.
• Only use lab power supplies with dual protection for the supply network
(with double/reinforced insulation (DI/RI)). This requirement is met by lab
power supplies which comply with IEC/EN 60950 or IEC/EN 61010.
• The lab power supply must be approved for use at a height of 2000 m and
in ambient temperatures of up to 40 °C.
Connecting Cables
Use only approved cables for creating cable assemblies (e.g. for connecting the
ECU and external loads).
Grounding/Grounding Contact
The ES4440.2 is grounded by the protective conductor of the power supply cord.
Avoid the danger of electric shock when touching housing components by
ensuring that the power connection used has properly connected grounding
contacts.
The cables used must be suitable particularly for the occurring currents, volt-
ages and temperatures and flame-retardant in accordance with one of the fol-
lowing standards IEC60332-1-2, IEC60332-2-2, UL2556/UL1581VW-1.
Risk of electric shock!
If no proper grounding via the PE conductor is available, housing
components that can be touched could be live. This can cause serious
or fatal injuries! For this reason, it must be ensured that the power
cable features correctly connected grounding contacts!
