- during operation: -10 °C to + 40 °C (14 °F to 104 °F)
- during transport and storage: -20 °C to +55 °C (-4 °F to 131 °F)
Relative humidity:
- up to 50% at 40 °C (104 °F)
- up to 90% at 20 °C (68 °F)
The surrounding air must be free from dust, acids, corrosive gases or substances, etc.
Can be used at altitudes of up to 2000 m (6561 ft. 8.16 in.)
Obligations of the
operator
The operator must only allow persons to work with the device who:
- are familiar with the fundamental instructions regarding safety at work and accident
prevention and have been instructed in how to use the device

Mains connection Devices with a higher rating may affect the energy quality of the mains due to their cur-
rent consumption.
This may affect a number device types in terms of:
- Connection restrictions
-
Criteria with regard to the maximum permissible mains impedance
*)
-
Criteria with regard to the minimum short-circuit power requirement
