If you install the device in an unapproved mounting position or if you do not observe the
ambient conditions, the device can overheat. UL approval and conformity with the low-
voltage directive (EN 60950-1:2006 and DIN EN 60950-1:2006-11) become void.
Overheating can cause a fire. Proper functioning of the device is no longer guaranteed.
Before you install the device, note the following general installation information.
Note

● Do not cover the vent slots of the device.
● Ensure that the maximum air intake temperature, measured 10 cm before the air intake
opening, does not exceed 40° C. The maximum air intake temperature must be
accounted for especially when sizing closed switchgear cabinets.
