Permitted operating height
The values stated in the technical details apply to the use of the device in operating heights
up to max. 2000 m above sea level. When used in greater heights, constraints have to be
taken into account:
} Permitted maximum operating height 5000 m
} Reduction of rated insulation voltage and rated impulse withstand voltage for applica-
tions with safe separation:
Maximum operation
